I solved a DNS resolution problem, with pihole in a VPS.<br />Only that I have the detail that every time I disconnect a client, I have to restart the server where PIVPN is installed.<br />If you could help me with a tip to solve this.Neftali Ramirez Justohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14077258487833937696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2724766386561173399.post-84333517144289623302022-01-21T02:18:43.012+10:002022-01-21T02:18:43.012+10:00A couple of things, first unbound has been updated...A couple of things, first unbound has been updated to unbound-daemon. Installing via apt fails but works with apt-get aka "sudo apt-get install unbound". It may be nice to put a cron job in this tutorial to update the root hints every 6 months.<br /><br />Second, when I check unbound over port 5335 I get a SERVFAIL. It works perfectly when I remove the -p flag and the port.Ben Burfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10240253765394930299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2724766386561173399.post-61829376757890549292021-06-29T05:11:20.414+10:002021-06-29T05:11:20.414+10:00I had an issue with the step:

It can also be used to block entire sites such as YouTube etc. by their URL.

What you missed is to add the iptable rules for the VPN config for the clients and maybe an explanation for portforwarding for the router otherwise it will not work straightforward out of the box. For advanced use of unbound you might add also DNS over TLS. Apart from that great conclusion for newbies.
