I recommend OVH.ie DNS though, it's free.

@Ikoula what's the advantage of using the registrar's DNS vs a DNS provider? Surprising disadvantages were already pointed out.

Dog shite? Well maybe its attack specific - but for DNS app layer floods they seem to do very well.

You'd probably find dnsmasq to be faster, with lesser footprint. But, OK. Look into nsd- it's fucking brilliant.

(I have a Unbound dns server running at home as my router doesn't cache dns results which lead to some really slow page loading a few months ago)

If you do not handle your zones on a dns setup by yourself the most conveniant would be to use your registrar's dns.

DNS is not really suitable on a NAT ipv4 server (Image)

I absolutely should not ... but this seems too good to pass up. Time to setup my own nameservers & DNS servers?

Manual reverse DNS [PTR] management

Hurricane Electric have free hosted DNS. Multiple servers on anycast IP addresses with extensive DNS record type support. It's pretty nice. Still no DNSSEC support though. (Image)

@Radi I realize that, but I rather like the nearly instantaneous DNS propagation of Cloudflare, especially when I was changing the hosting server several times. I just didn't think I'd need something

@depricated If you want IP to change automatically, your host can do it for you provided that you are using their DNS.

Cloudflare was working fine for DNS for a while... and now I realized that the IP had changed on the shared host. Is it normal for hosting IPs to change? Can the DNS be made to update the IP automatic

Sorry, but DNS resolvers not resolving != Network level. At all. Very far from it.

dnsmasq should do perfectly fine.
