DNS over TLS (DoT) in the Cloudflare for Families configuration is incompatible with NordVPN, causing name resolution failures when the VPN is active. This change disables DoT while maintaining DNS filtering protection.
Changes Made
DNSOverTLS=yestoDNSOverTLS=noin the systemd-resolved configurationImpact
This change ensures reliable DNS resolution when using NordVPN while preserving the security benefits:
The trade-off is acceptable since the DNS encryption is handled by NordVPN when connected, and the filtering protection remains active.
Fixes #47.
