Re: How to install DNSCrypt

WHERE are the *.deb files?

Seems like the link leads to an empty github repository (files on github are gone) and on "dnscrypt.org" i find only some for compilation

I guess i keep using the old ones then ....

Re: How to install DNSCrypt
Thanks tommyb., I've updated the first post in this topic to reflect that the tutorial is currently not usable due to the missing .deb files. Compiling from source should work (and is detailed on their website), but it's not high on my priority list to figure this all out right now. Might get around to it later
Re: How to install DNSCrypt
Good afternoon!!!
Guys, I follow the tutorial to the letter, but I received various messages of errors, like that:
The script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an Upstart
job, but --daemonize is not supported for Upstart jobs.
start: Unknown job: dnscrypt-proxy
How do resolve this?
thanks, in advance!!

Re: How to install DNSCrypt
Ok, for those interested i have the needed files in my dropbox public folder (dnscrypt 1.10, 0.94, 0.12) https://www.dropbox.com/sh/n14ywb4kqbbhaso/QoDHgovZX6.

Re: How to install DNSCrypt
This is not how the "DNS servers" field is supposed to be used. The DNS server addresses listed in that field are supposed to be the addresses of servers accessible over that connection.10. Reconfigure Network Manager to use DNSCrypt
Open Network Connections from the menu. On the Wired or Wireless tab highlight your active Internet connection. Click "Edit". On the IPv4 Settings tab, set Method to "Automatic (DHCP) addresses only" and set DNS servers to "127.0.0.1". Click "Save". Click "Close".
What you really want to do is to reconfigure the resolver so that it only uses dnscrypt-proxy and not any other nameservers known to the system, including nameservers known to NetworkManager.
Sooner or later dnscrypt-proxy will be packaged for Debian (http://bugs.debian.org/692320) and shortly there will be support for dnscrypt-proxy in dnsmasq (ugs.debian.org/709179).
Until that work is done, on a system with resolvconf, the best thing to do is to put
Code: Select all
nameserver 127.0.0.2 # dnscrypt-proxy's listen address
Re: How to install DNSCrypt
Anyone tried this with Mint 15?
EDIT: Yes it works perfect on Mint 15 Cinnamon, Thanks tommyb. for the files!

Re: How to install DNSCrypt
NOTE: Tested on LM 13 (Maya) MATE-edition!
By using the PPA for dnscrypt-proxy (and its libsodium dependency), insttalling becomes as easy as:
After reboot:
and add the following to the newly created file:
Thereafter one needs to disconnect from the active connection, add 127.0.0.2 as the DNS server, and then reconnect.

Has anyone gotten this to work on Mint 15? I for the life of me can't get it to work.

Well it didn't work for me.

Ok, but you get that openDNS welcome "checkmark"? In regards to wireshark: I'll check myself later, at this point everything is possible, but I only see 127.0.0.1 on netactviewer on the box which has dnscrypt installed "my" old way.
You have edited your network dns to 127.0.0.2 as required? use port 443 instead of 53 and see what happens.
.
.
I assume in my case all is fine - maybe somebody else can confirm: example (wireshark)
419 52.637116000 80.254.76.194 208.67.220.220 UDP 288 Source port: 45553 Destination port: https
425 52.925201000 208.67.220.220 80.254.76.194 UDP 460 Source port: https Destination port: 45553
.
I catch dns traffic that way on both boxes, indepently whether i used my method or the one above.
Re: How to install DNSCrypt
On LinuxMint 16, I get the error when I try to install it.
Code: Select all

Enkouyami that's not a surprise. Please more carefully read the top of my first post in this topic:

Update Feb 8 2013: As noted by tommyb. in the comments, the DNSCrypt .deb file downloads are no longer available. This makes this tutorial currently not usable.
Re: How to install DNSCrypt
Just tested my downloadable dnscrypt files from dropbox (yes: older .deb files) on Linux Mint 17 Mate 64bit -> seem to work.
Re: How to install DNSCrypt
@tommyb I just followed your HOWTO from your Dropbox files and it seems to work on Linux Mint 17 Cinnamon x64 .
Thank You!

Re: How to install DNSCrypt
Yesterday Andrew from webup8 published a post about DNScrypt incl. PPA (deb). If you like to use newer DNScrypt versions, that s your alternative http://www.webupd8.org/2014/08/encrypt- ... -with.html
PS: In case you wonder: Yes, it says Ubuntu, but since LinuxMint in its Standard flavors is Ubuntu based, there should not be a major problem. About "Andrew" and "Webup8" he s a well-known internet person and the site is up for long time and in my opinion trustworthy.

Re: How to install DNSCrypt
A few minutes ago an updated version of "Howto DNScrypt" on Ubuntu 14.x/L.M. has been published by webup8 ... link:http://www.webupd8.org/2014/08/encrypt- ... -with.html
I just followed the tut, changed my default dns provider, etc and it seems to work.

Re: How to install DNSCrypt
I just installed DNScrypt a "new" way successfully on Linux Mint 17.3 Mate 64-bit.
First it will download a bunch of files, then on second install attempt the script did the actual installation (hence you may have to run ./dnscrypt-autoinstall.sh twice, don't use sudo). DNS list is short, but you maybe able to add others (haven't tried).
https://github.com/simonclausen/dnscrypt-autoinstall
Code: Select all
wget https://raw.github.com/simonclausen/dnscrypt-autoinstall/master/dnscrypt-autoinstall.sh
chmod +x dnscrypt-autoinstall.sh
./dnscrypt-autoinstall.sh
Source:DNSCrypt is now installed.
You can run this script again to reconfigure, turn off, or uninstall it
