Howdy Everyone!

As I am setting up my infrastructure at home using docker I wanted to ask, is it better to have DNS, something like pi-hole, on my main docker swarm or would it be better to have it on a dedicated machine/docker host separate from the rest of my infrastructure?

Thanks for the input!

All that? Well, I understand your point, but honestly I have more fun learning something new, and was really little work.

Anyway... Its an option too

Getting all the functionality of Pihole into Unbound would be a good deal more than “a little work” lol. And for no real practical reason when all you’re trying to do is set up secure DNS with some ad blocking on your network. And this is coming from a professional who wouldn’t have to “learn” anything to do it. If it was really that little work, Pihole + Unbound wouldn’t be the go-to solutions for so many people.
