rdns-go

rdns is a reverse DNS proxy resolver written in Go. It acts as a DNS server, forwarding DNS queries to configured nameservers and returning the corresponding reverse DNS records.

Building

To build the rdns-go project, you need to have Go installed. Follow the official Go installation instructions for your operating system.

Once Go is installed, clone the rdns-go repository:

git clone https://git.rznet.fr/razian/rdns-go
cd rdns-go

Build the rdns binary:

go build

This will create a rdns binary in the project directory.

Usage

The rdns-go project can be started using the provided docker-compose.yml file. Modify the environment variables in the docker-compose.yml file to customize the configuration.

docker-compose up -d

This command will start the rdns-go container in the background.

Configuration

The rdns-go project can be configured using the following command arguments:

  • -b (default: /etc/rdns/blocklist.txt): The path to the blocklist file. This file contains a list of domain names to block.
  • -z (default: /etc/rdns/rdns.zones): The path to the zones file. This file contains custom zone information.
  • -h (default: /etc/rdns/hosts): The path to the hosts file. This file contains custom hosts and can be used as a network wide /etc/hosts file.
  • -n (default: 9.9.9.9:1.1.1.1): The nameservers to use for DNS resolution.
  • -t (default: 60): The time-to-live value for cached queries (in minutes).
  • -s (default: true): Whether to use TLS to contact the resolver.
