CipherDNS endpoint addition ( formally vpsdns.co.za )#1052
Merged
Conversation
I'm updating the SDNS stamps for my resolvers. I'm migrating the endpoints from the old vpsdns.co.za domain over to a new dedicated domain: cipherdns.co.za. Why the change? Branding: The old domain made it look like the resolver was just a generic public mirror provided by a VPS hosting provider. Moving to cipherdns.co.za helps clear up that confusion and lets me establish a proper brand. Future Growth: It gives me a clean naming structure to add more servers and regional clusters down the line.
Hey everyone, I'm updating the SDNS stamp for my Anonymized resolver. I'm migrating the endpoints from the old vpsdns.co.za domain over to a new dedicated domain: cipherdns.co.za. Why the change?

Refactor backend resolver infrastructure to enforce DNSSEC validation - Migrated recursive backend from Technitium to Unbound. - Fixed an issue where the upstream translation layer was dropping the DO bit. - Restored pristine, authenticated EDNS0 payloads over the HTTPS pipe. Note: Technitium's AD flag handling drove me to the brink of insanity. Turns out I'm either dealing with a hyper-sensitive C# daemon edge case, or I'm still a novice xD.

Thanks a lot for the update, Rouve! The migration to the CipherDNS domain makes sense, and the new DNSCrypt, DoH, and anonymized relay stamps all check out. Happy to have these South Africa endpoints back in the list. 🙌 |

Hi there.
As you may have noticed, I've migrated from the vpsdns.co.za domain towards cipherdns.co.za, hence why the endpoints stopped working. Apologies for any inconvenience.
Thank you !
