ChinaDNS

Build Status Coverage Status

Traditional way to bypass DNS poisoning is to send all queries to a foreign DNS server via VPN. However some Chinese websites will get bad results if they have CDNs outside the country.

The second way is to maintain a list of domains of which you want to resolve from local DNS or foreign DNS. This list changes too often, taking too much effort to maintain.

ChinaDNS automatically queries local DNS servers to resolve Chinese domains and queries foreign DNS servers to resolve foreign domains. It is smart enough to work only with a Chinese IP range file, which doesn't change often.

In order to bypass IP blocking, you SHOULD use VPN software like ShadowVPN.

Install

  • Linux / Unix

    Download a release.

      ./configure && make
      src/chinadns -m -c chnroute.txt
    
  • OpenWRT

    • Download precompiled for OpenWRT trunk and CPU: ar71xx, brcm63xx, brcm47xx, ramips_24kec. Open an issue if you think your CPU is a popular one but not listed here.

    • If you use other CPU or other OpenWRT versions, build yourself: cd into SDK root, then

        pushd package
        git clone https://github.com/clowwindy/ChinaDNS.git
        popd
        make menuconfig # select Network/ChinaDNS
        make -j
        make V=99 package/ChinaDNS/openwrt/compile
      
  • Tomoto

    • Download Tomato toolchain, build by yourself.

    • Uncompress the downloaded file to ~/.

    • Copy the brcm directory under ~/WRT54GL-US_v4.30.11_11/tools/ to /opt, then

        export PATH=/opt/brcm/hndtools-mipsel-uclibc/bin/:/opt/brcm/hndtools-mipsel-linux/bin/:$PATH
        git clone https://github.com/clowwindy/ChinaDNS.git
        cd ChinaDNS
        ./autogen.sh && ./configure --host=mipsel-linux --enable-static && make
      
  • Windows

    Download Python exe version.

Usage

  • Linux / Unix Recommand using with option "-m" (DNS pointer mutation method) Run sudo chinadns -m -c chnroute.txt on your local machine. ChinaDNS creates a UDP DNS Server at 0.0.0.0:53.

  • OpenWRT

      opkg install ChinaDNS_1.x.x_ar71xx.ipk
      /etc/init.d/chinadns start
      /etc/init.d/chinadns enable
    

    Invoke the "enable" command to run the initscript on boot

    (Optional) We strongly recommend you to set ChinaDNS as a upstream DNS server for dnsmasq instead of using ChinaDNS directly:

    1. Run /etc/init.d/chinadns stop

    2. Remove the 2 lines containing iptables in /etc/init.d/chinadns.

    3. Update /etc/dnsmasq.conf to use only 127.0.0.1#5353:

       no-resolv
       server=127.0.0.1#5353
      
    4. Restart chinadns and dnsmasq

Test if it works correctly:

$ dig @192.168.1.1 www.youtube.com -p5353
; <<>> DiG 9.8.3-P1 <<>> @127.0.0.1 www.google.com -p5353

Currently ChinaDNS only supports UDP. Builtin OpenWRT init script works with dnsmasq, which handles TCP. If you use it directly without dnsmasq, you need to add a redirect rule for TCP:

iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 53 -j DNAT --to-destination 8.8.8.8:53

Advanced

usage: chinadns [-h] [-l IPLIST_FILE] [-b BIND_ADDR] [-p BIND_PORT]
       [-c CHNROUTE_FILE] [-s DNS] [-v]
Forward DNS requests.

-h, --help            show this help message and exit
-l IPLIST_FILE        path to ip blacklist file
-c CHNROUTE_FILE      path to china route file
                      if not specified, CHNRoute will be turned off
-d                    enable bi-directional CHNRoute filter
-y                    delay time for suspects, default: 0.3
-b BIND_ADDR          address that listens, default: 127.0.0.1
-p BIND_PORT          port that listens, default: 53
-s DNS                DNS servers to use, default:
                      114.114.114.114,208.67.222.222:443,8.8.8.8
-m                    Using DNS compression pointer mutation
                      (backlist and delaying would be disabled)
-v                    verbose logging

About chnroute

You can generate latest chnroute.txt using this command:

curl 'http://ftp.apnic.net/apnic/stats/apnic/delegated-apnic-latest' | grep ipv4 | grep CN | awk -F\| '{ printf("%s/%d\n", $4, 32-log($5)/log(2)) }' > chnroute.txt
