I use want to anonymize my DNS requests ; I've tried to put DNSPort 53 in torrc, restarting the tor daemon and polipo, even restarting my computer. By using nestat -atop I can't see any daemon listening on the port 53, however tor-resolve work well.

Using nameserver 127.0.0.1, I can't load any page

"-atop", the t stands for TCP.

Tor's DNSPort is UDP. Try ss -uln. It's also not a full DNS implementation and it only handles A, AAAA and PTR lookups.

  • Indeed, nice idea to exflitrate data using udp nobody look at it, use "update-rc.d tor enable" to put Tor at startup, put "nameserver 127.0.0.1" in your resolv.conf file and "DNSPort 53" in torrc, ipleak.net don't detect my DNS server anymore, CLOUDFLARE COLLECT DATA FOR CIA
