How to configure secure DNS requests?

[db5589 (Danijel)]

Currently I can see under status/connection that the DNS Server requests are sent to Port 53, not 853.

Thanks for your help!

Hi all,
since Core 141 is now in testing tree and it delivers also DNS-over-TLS, i would recommend to uninstall the development version before updating. This can be done via the script from here --> https://forum.ipfire.org/viewtopic.php?f=50&t=21954 .

Thanks to all for testing and your help. Well done .

Best,

Erik
