Pi-Hole Unbound

Ubuntu Server 22.04 LTS VM on Proxmox following Official Guide

  • Got it up and running but other devices weren’t connecting to them. Only connected when not using Unbound/recursive.
  • Realised my DNS config wasn’t working in my UDR (I think from a recent OS update).
  • I need to redo every vLAN to fix this issue. (KILL ME)

Pi-Hole TOR

Ubuntu Server 22.04 LTS VM on Proxmox following unOfficial Guide

  • Works perfectly as long as DDNSEC isn’t enabled.
  • Two tweaks to basic default config:
    • Set region to AU to improve speed
    • Enabled Proxy Connection
  • Works really well but isn’t suitable for whole network.

Pi-Hole Unbound V.2

Ubuntu Server 22.04 LTS VM on Proxmox following Official Guide

  • This time I tried Unbound on Server & Pi-Hole inside a Docker Container. Sucked.
  • I then tried the original setup but with 127.0.1.1 as the loopback address but that only seemed to half-work.
  • I am using this VM but with the upstream pointing to the gateway. Kinda sucks.
  • I can now control DNS blocking per device though & I’m using encrypted DNS upstream. POG.
