findns helps you find working DNS resolvers for DNS tunnel tools. Some tools use DNS tunnels to bypass network restrictions. findns scans many resolvers quickly and shows you which ones work best. It supports dnstt, DoH (DNS over HTTPS), and other similar tools to connect you to the internet.
You don’t need any special skills to use findns. It works on Windows and is ready to run after download.

findns lets you save the scan information:
- After scanning, find the Save or Export option.
- Choose where to save the results file on your computer.
- Use this file later with your DNS tunnel tool.
DNS resolvers can change over time. Run findns regularly to get fresh resolver lists. Repeat the steps above anytime you want to find new resolvers.
- You can adjust scan speed in the settings. Faster scans use more internet data; slower scans are gentler on networks.
- Use the included help button or documentation if you need a basic explanation for each option.
- If the scan does not complete, check your internet connection or firewall settings to allow findns access.
- Running findns as an administrator may help with network permissions in some cases.
A DNS resolver helps change website names to numbers so devices can connect. Some DNS resolvers also support tunnels. DNS tunnels send data through the DNS system to bypass blocks.
findns finds these special resolvers that work well with DNS tunnel software. This method helps access sites when normal connections are blocked.
- dnstt (DNS Tunnel Tool)
- DoH (DNS over HTTPS) clients
- Other DNS tunnel software that needs working resolvers
You provide the resolver list from findns to these tools for faster, reliable connections.
- If findns does not open, right-click
findns.exeand choose Run as administrator. - If the scan hangs, check your firewall. Allow findns to use the network.
- If no resolvers are found, your internet connection might be blocking DNS requests. Try a different network.
- Running multiple scans may yield better results as resolvers change.
