Post describing how I've configured pihole to return different results to clients on my tailnet than those on the LAN.| www.bentasker.co.uk
Pi-hole's ability to manage local DNS records is one of its most useful yet least talked about features - especially in a homelab environment - regardless of if you're running just a few simple services in your lab or something more complicated like a Kubernetes cluster full of containerized services.| Tech Addressed
If you run a pihole the odds are good that you’ve needed to disable it from time to time. I wanted an easy way to disable my pihole(s) temporarily, so I wrote a simple shell script to do it for me. I’m almost always on my Macbook, so this approach worked for a while. I needed to disable it a few times while I was out of the room, so I figured I’d find an easier way to do it from my phone.| Chris Bergerons Tech Blog

Pihole is a great app for blocking internet advertising that was originally designed to be run on a raspberry pi. It blocks known advertisers’ domains at the DNS level by effectively null routing requests destined to serve ads. It can be run on VMs, Raspberry Pis and bare metal servers. Here are the steps to access the pihole’s rest api. I’m using curl in this example, but you can integrate it ...| Chris Bergerons Tech Blog
I wrote a very simple little playbook for updating my local DNS records for my piholes. For me it’s easier than manually sshing onto each node and editing a file and restarting the service. Here’s the playbook:| Chris Bergerons Tech Blog
Pihole + Grafana + InfluxDB Dashboard I wanted to add the metrics from my ad-blocker, the great Pihole to my executive dashboard. To create the dashboard I used Grafana to display the graphs and InfluxDB a the time-series backend database. I use a simple python script to get the metrics from pihole and record them in influxdb. Grafana makes it easy to render them into a user friendly dashboard. Installing Grafana and Influxdb is beyond the scope of this blog post but here is the scipt that I ...| Chris Bergerons Tech Blog
