Running DNS server in Docker (jlai.lu)

Hi everyone,

I own a homeserver running multiple services set up in individual docker compose projects. One of them is dnsmasq + pi-hole. Pi-hole is exposed on the host's 53 port and uses dnsmasq as upstream. The host's /etc/resolv.conf points to 127.0.0.1 to use pi-hole. Other containers from other compose projects on the same machine indirectly use pi-hole as well, as they use docker's embedded DNS which forwards to the host.

Everything had worked fine for weeks before I ran into an issue after unattended-upgrades updated docker. After the upgrade, systemd attempted to restart the docker service. From the logs, it seems that the containers had a hard time honoring the SIGTERM. They started to complain about failing to reach the DNS server. At least that's my understanding from journalctl -u docker. Here's a (long) excerpt that shows:

  • containers failing to stop gracefully
  • stale processes after docker forcibly shut them down
  • repeated errors "stream copy error: reading from a closed fifo" afterwards that I am wondering what they mean

I ssh'ed into the server and noticed that the pi-hole & dnsmasq containers were not running. I ran docker compose up -d in all projects, starting with the DNS one and it went back to normal.

My question is: how bad of an idea is this to run a DNS in docker and use it for the host and other containers? Maybe I just had back luck but I can't help thinking this setup creates some sort of circular dependency between the host, docker and the containers.

If anyone has experience with a similar setup, I'd be curious to hear their opinion on the issue I ran into.

Thanks!

In both the pi-hole (exposed on the host) and dnsmasq (used as upstream by pi-hole) containers:

# Generated by Docker Engine.
# This file can be edited; Docker Engine will not make
 further changes once it
# has been modified.

nameserver 127.0.0.11
options ndots:0

# Based on host file: '/etc/resolv.conf' (internal res
olver)
# ExtServers: [host(127.0.0.1)]
# Overrides: []
# Option ndots from: internal

So they are pointing to docker's embedded DNS, itself forwarding to the host.

OK yeah, that might be a problem. You want to set the dns in the dnsmasq so it can resolve stuff upstream (probably with DoT or DoH), and the dns in pihole to the IP of dnsmasq. Look into the "dns", "dns_search" and "dns_opt" compose directives.

You may also want to consider simplifing your stack by using only dnsmasq or only pihole. Both of them can do pretty much the same things if you add some plugins.

I'm using dnsmasq as lan dns server with DoH upstream as well as dhcp server. The dnsmasq is advertising itself as dns to all the dhcp clients. Also it runs on the router which allows it to hijack port 53 so any client attempting to do clear dns elsewhere ends up going through dnsmasq anyway. It also has an adblock plugin.

[–] fendrax@jlai.lu 2 points 7 months ago

Your suggestion looks similar to this other comment and makes sense. I'll try that!

I have never managed to wrap my head around DoH and DoT but this is on my todo list ^^

I didn't know dnsmasq has an adblock plugin, I'll have a look. Originally, I was using dnsmasq alone (running on bare metal). Then I migrated to docker and added pi-hole for ad blocking. I tried to get rid of dnsmasq but pi-hole's embedded DHCP is not as configurable as dnsmasq's and I could not address my use case.

Thanks a lot for your time!
