Re: [PLUG] Pi-Hole?


PiHole has worked pretty well for me.  My only problems have been with the poor reliability of SD Cards on the PI that cause the whole system to do weird things.

I assume you have done the normal rebooting, etc..

The last time I had trouble, I had to rebuild the entire PI system and re-install PiHole.  Since them, I've had a backup PiHole running in a VirtualBox VM "just in case".

Sorry I can't help with more specifics.

Pi-hole worked, then stopped. Note: as far as I recall, I changed nothing save upstream DNS servers, but it just stopped blocking requests a bit after 1800 yesterday. Curiously, it began to work, kinda, this morning, but still isn't blocking anything from a list of adult sites that I added. Note: my Windows 10 client is using the Pi-hole server as its DNS (10.0.0.18).

Pi-hole is running on a Raspberry Pi.

I selected upstream DNS servers + added the default adlist + porn list. I'd be glad to send the log to anyone who requests it.
