Question Unable to find DNS Resolver

[Deleted member 190352]

Server operating system version

Plesk Obsidian 18.0.73

Plesk version and microupdate number

Update #3 Web Host Edition

I'm looking to make Quad9 my only resolver on my server.

I've edited /etc/systemd/resolved.conf, but it still defaults back to Google and I don't want it to.
Apparently this could something to do with Plesk/Ionos, my Hosting provider.

Does anyone know anything about this or where can I find the DNS Resolver to hopefully fix this.

Don't you normally add this in: /etc/resolv.conf
Not sure though. But might be a good starting point.

We use our own two internal DNS servers, which are added in /etc/resolv.conf on every server we setup.
The two internal DNS servers container several good/ast DNS providers, amongst others.

Thanks. Yes I did work on that. AI gave me some good pointers.
In the end, getting the right DNS Resolver was the issue. The Fallback I was leaving open but it was defaulting to Google all the time.
The culprit was the Netplan. Once I put the right IP's in there, the problem was fixed and Spam Assassin should now stop sending emails because of DNSBL checks. Google didn't support Open Resolvers.
