unbound install error?

[naddel81]

pihole shows "127.0.0.1#5353" under DNS. is there a way to really test if unbound is working?

best wishes.

As already stated twice, do following and restart unbound afterwards

Code: Select all

rm -vf /etc/unbound/unbound.conf.d/{dietpi-pihole,pi-hole}.conf
G_CONFIG_INJECT 'port:[[:blank:]]' '	port: 5353' /etc/unbound/unbound.conf.d/dietpi.conf
G_CONFIG_INJECT 'interface:[[:blank:]]' '	interface: 127.0.0.1' /etc/unbound/unbound.conf.d/dietpi.conf
G_CONFIG_INJECT 'verbosity:[[:blank:]]' '	verbosity: 3' /etc/unbound/unbound.conf.d/dietpi.conf
G_CONFIG_INJECT 'log-queries:[[:blank:]]' '	log-queries: yes' /etc/unbound/unbound.conf.d/dietpi.conf

[Joulinar]

That's the DNS server of your DietPi device and that's correct. Important is that your network devices at home using pihole

[naddel81]

[naddel81]

all network devices use pihole since it is the DNS of my router.

[Joulinar]

Unselect Google as upstream DNS server

[naddel81]

done. now my DNS is my own IP:

Your DNS Server 93.214.118.18
Owner of this server Deutsche Telekom AG
Status of this server Everything is fine

[Joulinar]

you can check inside PiHole > QueryLog what is done. On the status you should see which upstream DNS is used
