[Unbound-users] unbound newbie setup

[Subba Rao]

Hi,

I am trying to setup "unbound" on my netbook which is a client on my
home network. I use this netbook for travel so the dhcp address I use
will be different at different places.  The netbook is running Linux
Mint 17.1 (Rebecca).

I installed "unbound" but am having problem with configuration which is
posted below.  My /etc/resolv.conf has the following entries

nameserver 127.0.0.1
search home.net

When I start my computer, the unbound starts as a service.  At this
point I cannot go anywhere on the Net or get any system updates.  Once I
stop the unbound service, I can go out onto the Internet and get updates.

Please let me know how to fix this problem.  My goal is to have a
recursive caching server on my netbook.

Thank you in advance for any help and advice.

PS - I would also like to include AD blockers (at the bottom of the
config) into this configuration at a later stage.  At first I want
unbound to work.
