Overview

What is Technitium DNS Server?

Technitium DNS Server is an open-source, self-hosted DNS server that is both authoritative and recursive, focused on privacy and network-wide ad and malware blocking. It is a significantly more feature-complete alternative to Pi-hole regarding DNS functions, giving administrators full control over resolution.

It supports encrypted DNS (DNS-over-TLS, DNS-over-HTTPS, DNS-over-QUIC), multi-algorithm DNSSEC validation, block lists, multi-instance clustering, an integrated DHCP server, a DNS client, a web console (with dark mode), an HTTP API, and two-factor authentication. It covers everything from home networks to enterprise infrastructure.

Technically, Technitium is written in C# / .NET, with a very low memory footprint (it runs comfortably even on a Raspberry Pi). Hosted by DINAO in France, it ensures that your DNS queries and logs are never entrusted to a public American resolver — sovereignty down to the core of your network.

FAQ

You might be wondering…

How is this different from Pi-hole?

Technitium performs ad/malware blocking like Pi-hole, but it is a complete DNS server: authoritative and recursive, with DNSSEC, encrypted DNS (DoT/DoH/DoQ), DHCP, and clustering — far more than a simple blocker.

Do my DNS queries remain private?

Yes. Hosted by DINAO in France, your server resolves queries itself and encrypts them (DoT/DoH/DoQ): they are not entrusted to a public American resolver.

Can I manage my own zones?

Yes. In authoritative mode, you host your own DNS zones, with DNSSEC validation. The integrated DHCP server complements your network management.

How do I configure my devices?

Point your devices or network to your Technitium DNS server. DINAO provides the settings (clear or encrypted DoT/DoH) and supports you.

Do I need technical skills?

Administration is done via a clear web console. DINAO handles installation, encryption, and updates; a network team can operate the API and clustering.
