There are many DNS servers out there, each with their benefits and shortcomings. In order to make this tutorial simpler, I'm going to be using a self-created DNS server named [`dnsd`](https://github.com/Xe/x/tree/master/cmd/dnsd). This server is extremely simple and reloads its zone files every minute over HTTP, to make updating records easier. There are going to be a few steps to setting this up:
- Creating a DNS zonefile
- Adding ad-blocking DNS rules
- Hosting the zonefile over HTTP/HTTPS
- Adding ad-blocking DNS rules
- Installing `dnsd` with Docker
- Using with the WireGuard app

### Adding Ad-Blocking DNS Rules
If you would like to have some of this generated for you, fill out http://zonefile.org with the following information:

* Base data
* Domain: pele

Note that this will include a [Start of Authority or `SOA`](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/SOA_record) record, which is not strictly required, but may be nice to include too. If you want to include this in your manually made zonefile, it should look something like this:
```
@ IN SOA oho.pele. some@email.address. (
2019040602 ; serial number YYMMDDNN
28800 ; Refresh
7200 ; Retry
864000 ; Expire

)
IN NS oho.pele.
```
### Hosting the Zonefile Over HTTP/HTTPS
This is the "draw the rest of the owl" part of this article, worst case something like [GitHub Gists](https://gist.github.com/) works. Once you have the URL of your zonefiles and a reliable way to update them, you can move to the next step: installing `dnsd`.
### Adding Ad-Blocking DNS Rules
A friend of mine adapted her DNSMasq scripts to [generate RFC 1035 DNS zonefiles](https://github.com/faithanalog/x/blob/master/dns-adblock/download-lists-and-generate-zonefile.sh). In order to generate `adblock.zone` do the following:

This should produce `adblock.zone` in the current working directory. If you are unable to run this script for whatever reason, I update my [adblock.zone file](https://xena.greedo.xeserv.us/files/adblock.zone) weekly (please download this file instead of configuring your copy of `dnsd` to use this URL).
This should produce `adblock.zone` in the current working directory. Put this file in the same place you put your custom zone.

In order to configure [iOS WireGuard clients](https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/wireguard/id1441195209?mt=8) to use this DNS server, open the WireGuard app and tap the name of the configuration we created in the last post. Hit "Edit" in the upper right hand corner and select the "DNS Servers" box. Put `10.55.0.1` in it and hit "Save". Be sure to confirm the VPN is active, then open [LibTerm](https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/libterm/id1380911705?mt=8) and enter in the following:
```
$ dig @10.55.0.1 oho.pele
$ dig oho.pele
```
And make sure it works.
Once this is done, you should be good to go! Updates to the zone files will be picked up by `dnsd` within a minute or two of the files being changed on the remote servers. Please be sure the server you are using tags the files appropriately with the ETag header, as `dnsd` uses that to determine if the zonefile has changed or not.
