U used1d Member Jun 16, 2025 49 2 8 Jun 21, 2025 #1 Anyone know how to use Mullvad DNS for pve? I put dns.mullvad.net in Search Domain, and 194.242.2.2 for DNS1. Yet, I am unable to connect to any repos for updating after doing that. Any help is appreciated!

Click to expand... All nameservers in /etc/resolv.conf must support "plain-old" DNS via port 53. You can theoretically use them directly via systemd-resolved: https://mullvad.net/en/help/dns-over-https-and-dns-over-tls#linux But Proxmox VE does not use systemd-resolved; so any setup (and problems/fallout thereof) are not really supported. I'd recommend to deploy and use a separate server as DNS in your network, if you really want to use Mullvads DNS servers. Reactions: used1d
