[Unbound-users] DNSSEC and traffic encryption questions

Leen: Thanks for the tip. It still would not start, then I deleted
most of the entries in the included file, leaving 15 or so records in
it. Unbound then started correctly. Apparently there was entry in the
file that Unbound disliked.  I wish it would have complained instead
of dying silently. (verbose is now 5)

(Tony) - well then, it's dnscrypt / tor until encryption becomes available.
I have dnscrypt working and Unbound correctly forwardS to that. I do
want to get tor-dns working as well however, specially since socks-5
has a dns-listener on 9053 (udp). I tried as below, but it did not
work probably because Unbound used tcp? Is there a way to inform
Unbound that the forward should be udp?
 forward-addr: 192.168.2.xx at 9053

Back to the DNSSEC issue. Debug output for Unbound start-up below. Is
there any verbose output I can provide?
