Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:

-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

Still waiting for my success. Pihole randomly doesn't answer DNS requests in time, causing a lot of trouble between my services. It's happening since I switched to dnsmasq in opnsense (which is upstream for my local domain for Pihole), but also for external domains. Can't nail it down and am this short of reconsidering my whole network setup. It used to work fine for over a year though..
Opnsense dnsmasq is DHCP for my servers and also resolves them as local hosts. (e.g. server1.local.domain) and Pihole conditionally forwards there. Since the issue is also when resolving external domains, it shouldn't be related, but the timing is suspicious. I also switched the general upstream DNS.
Pihole does have some logs indicating too many concurrent requests, but those are not always correlating with the timeouts.
I know it's DNS, I just don't know where yet.
Is dnsmasq rate limiting tbe pi's IP? Or is opnsense intercepting port 53 outbound and sending it to dnsmasq anyway so all pi DNS queries are being resolved in dnsmasq?
Opnsense is only between the servers and the pi, the pi is in the same subnet as our consumer devices and the opnsense (directly connected to the router). The issues are both on the consumer devices and on the server, so the opnsense should not be the direct issue.
