Solution: I just had to create the file
I wanted to install Pi-Hole on my server and noticed that port 53 is already in use by something.
Apparently it is in use by systemd-resolved:
~$ sudo lsof -i -P -n | grep LISTEN
[...]
systemd-r 799 systemd-resolve 18u IPv4 7018 0t0 TCP 127.0.0.53:53 (LISTEN)
systemd-r 799 systemd-resolve 20u IPv4 7020 0t0 TCP 127.0.0.54:53 (LISTEN)
[...]
And the solution should be to edit /etc/systemd/resolved.conf
by changing #DNSStubListener=yes
to DNSStubListener=no
according to this post I found. But the /etc/systemd/resolved.conf
doesn’t exist on my server.
I’ve tried sudo dnf install /etc/systemd/resolved.conf
which did nothing other than telling me that systemd-resolved
is already installed of course. Rebooting also didn’t work. I don’t know what else I could try.
I’m running Fedora Server.
Is there another way to stop systemd-resolved
from listening on port 53? If not how do I fix my missing .conf
file?

The domain name shouldn’t matter
FWIW, I’m referring to the local DNS (domain name system) resolver; the mechanism that resolves local domain names into IP addresses so that computers can talk to each other over the LAN.
I know
It still won’t really matter. The domain name is arbitrary in this case
