[Unbound-users] From Unbound To DNS Via SOCKS, and Choices

(Paul, sorry i did not understand what
you indicated to).

unbound, was already configured to support
local UDP, and TCP DNS-queries, and use only
TCP DNS for upstream outbound queries with
Internet name-servers, DNS-Servers, private
remote name-servers, etc (which i have
mentioned previously).
Then i changed only name-server(s) & DNS-Server(s)
inside unbound.conf/service.conf file, with unique
local port, and placed "socat" port forwarder
& socksifier (toward actual name-server/DNS-server),
on each of those unique port.

since i've not enabled remote control
section/feature in local unbound, i guess
unbound-control will probably not work.

if remote control feature is turned on in unbound,
and then using unbound-control, can a SOCKS proxy
like 10.0.1.10:1080 be specified ? or, can a
Tor SOCKS proxy like 10.0.1.10:9050 be specified ?
(if a Tor SOCKS proxy is to be used, then i would
MUST need to use TLS encrypted tunnels (to the
destination name-server(s), DNS-server(s)), i think
that will require further modification in
interconnecting configurations of these components).

Does a feature exist in Unbound to specify
SSL/TLS cert for connecting with each/specific
DNS-Server(s) ? and then send DNS-queries ?
(pls assume these DNS-Servers supports DNS-queries
via TLS encrypted connections via their TCP port
443).
or, do i must need to use the SSL/TLS cert
(used by DNS-Server) with "socat" to use
encrypted tunnels ? (currently i have no
choice but to use such/socat for encrypted
tunnels).
