Whitelist Rules does not work

Open ddd28et opened this issue 2 years ago • 6 comments

I need to block all websites except those are allowed in my whitelist. So I create rules:

Whitelist Rules medium.com

BlackList Rules *.*

I can not open medium.com. Is it possible to block all websites except those are allowed in my whitelist with SimpleDnsCrypt?

I have found a solution. Need to delete Simple DNSCrypt and install dnscrypt-proxy. I can do this thing with dnscrypt and it's possible to block all websites except those are allowed in my whitelist with dnscrypt-proxy.

  1. I deleted Simple DNSCrypt.
  2. I installed dnscrypt-proxy here: https://github.com/DNSCrypt/dnscrypt-proxy
  3. I use dnscrypt-proxy without Simple DNSCrypt.
  4. All works, don't need GUI at all.

So it's possible to block all websites except those are allowed in my whitelist with dnscrypt-proxy (new version). Maybe it's possible with Simple DNSCrypt (with old version of dnscrypt-proxy). I don't know. Maybe I made some mistakes with Simple DNSCrypt (with old version of dnscrypt-proxy). But I use dnscrypt-proxy here https://github.com/DNSCrypt/dnscrypt-proxy without GUI and it's work fine. I like it. Now I have more experience with dnscrypt-proxy maybe if I install Simple DNSCrypt with old version of dnscrypt-proxy it will work too. I don't know.

But I think that dnscrypt-proxy here https://github.com/DNSCrypt/dnscrypt-proxy works very well without any GUI. This program has a very good documentation.

Yes, but Simple DNSCrypt is simple and user-friendly - ready to go solution without studying the documentation, and the concept of the new application looked great, sad if the development is abandoned. Is there an auto-selection of the best DNS in dnscrypt-proxy by the way?
