I am trying to create & verify dns stamps and wanted to use dnscrypt-proxy to verify chain as i understood from https://github.com/jedisct1/doh-server#operational-recommendations.

I am using dncrypt-proxy for quiet some time now, not a problem at all

my toml file (after editing to test static)

##server_names = ['scaleway-fr', 'google', 'yandex', 'cloudflare']
server_names = ['myserver']

[static]

  [static.'myserver']
  stamp = 'sdns://AgcAAAAAAAAABzEuMC4wLjEAEmRucy5jbG91ZGZsYXJlLmNvbQovZG5zLXF1ZXJ5'

stamp tested from cloudflare

The proxy doesn't seem to print anything at all when it starts. This can't happen in the default configuration.

Did you redirect the logs to a file ?

[ebal]

Yes indeed !

$ grep syslog dnscrypt-proxy.toml 

## the standard system logging service (syslog/Windows event log).
## Use the system logger (syslog on Unix, Event Log on Windows)
use_syslog = true

so output goes to journal , got-it.

many thanks
