I'm pretty certain that DNS on alternate ports is directly supported by the BSD family; I thought that I could set this up easily in MacOS as well, but it seems to be troublesome. Has anybody here ever had success using DNS services on an alternate port under Linux / MacOS?

In the worst case, I could set up a little daemon to listen on my local port 53 and forward it to a DNS server listening on an alternate port. =)

Can you even configure Windows, Linux to use a DNS server on a non-standard port?\

Don't think you can on Windows, not sure about Linux though.

Nope, I do not know any running on non-standard ports. If there is a
need for this, I can configure my T2 servers to listen on non-standard
ports.

Let me know.
