DNSCrypt server with vultr.com

Frank Denis edited this page Sep 28, 2026 · 16 revisions

After you have registered at Vultr.com and successfully logged in, click Deploy New Server.

Then you have to select the location of your server. In this example, I chose Frankfurt.

Select Server Type: Application -> Docker -> CentOS 7.

The $5 variant is quite sufficient.

Download and copy the following start script (type Boot): dnscrypt_install.sh

Choose a server name and click Deploy Now.

Note: This name will automatically be the name of your resolver.

The server will restart after a few minutes. Go have a cup of coffee and wait 5 - 10 minutes!

Log in via SSH (the IP address can be found in the Vultr.com web interface).

You can find your stamp (and all other keys) here: cat /root/keys/provider-info.txt
