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.
-
Linux / Unix
./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
, thenexport 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.
-
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 at0.0.0.0:53
. -
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:
-
Run
/etc/init.d/chinadns stop
-
Remove the 2 lines containing
iptables
in/etc/init.d/chinadns
. -
Update
/etc/dnsmasq.conf
to use only 127.0.0.1#5353:no-resolv server=127.0.0.1#5353
-
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
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
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
