I connect to a WireGuard installed on my VPS. Then I go to a random VPN service marketing page on which I’ll discover that my DNS leaks. And which is correct because I’ve specified DNS = 1.1.1.1 in [Interface] for all the Peers.

In order to avoid DNS leakadge, do I have to a) run DNS server on the a VPS – along with WireGuard, and b) use this one and only it, instead of 1.1.1.1?


But if so, how will this possibly work?

[Peer]
PublicKey = [....;....]
PresharedKey = [......]
Endpoint = wg.my_domain123.com:51820

In order to resolve Endpoint of my VPS to begin with, other DNS server will have to be used – by IP. But there’ll be none because I’ll use a DNS on my VPS instead of 1.1.1.1. In other words, it’ll be a circular dependency.

This will be the same for your DNS. If you want true anonymity regarding DNS, you should use someone else’s service, preferably over encrypted channels, eg. cyberia.is DoT.

Looks like you shouldn’t ask for anything at all, given that you cannot take a single answer without being a condescending jerk. I’m not affiliated to cyberia.is in any mean by the way just proposing a service that you could use to solve your problem if you were not too busy being a douchebag.

A week on, and it’s the same shit with this guy

Two weeks later, I’m just scrolling through his comments to confirm that he’s still a dick. Also a Putin cocksucker.
