Feel free to just delete the wg-easy service.

How well does that run in docker? I've always liked docker, but it seems to me that certain apps should touch metal than be containerized. Maybe I'm too old school.

Hi friends.

I've been trying to find docker-compose.yaml for pihole+unbound so I can use pihole as both a recursive dns server and as local dns alongside Nginx Proxy Manager. But since v6 of pihole all the old files I could find don't work properly or at all.

Does anyone here use pihole+unbound in docker?

Not as far as I know. I have never been throttled or anything ever. I have never seen any charges.

Thank you very much.

I have all these services in docker as well (although not with the docker compose file here) and they run perfectly fine with a very low resource footprint.

I mean in terms of hijacking DNS. Might be worth a look.

0K that's cool. I love docker. I would like to upgrade to k8s but I haven't yet plumbed the depths of docker. I was just with the overhead of docker, since Pi-Hole/Unbound is a dedicated system, I thought maybe it'd get better thru put baked in. I wouldn't listen to me tho, I'm medicated.

It runs quite well; Docker's not a full fledged virtual machine so much as a virtualization layer. I also love the portability of running this in Docker. I rsync a backup of this and the Appdata folder every night. When or if this server fails, I can be up and running again in minutes on another machine.

You seem knowledgeable. I have a question about this. I have ran this type of setup before. Every time, I ended up ditching unbound because it throws DNSSEC error. I have tried troubleshooting but it doesn’t work.

How'd it work out?

uh, nah

That's when the compose file was written. The docker images named in the file are updated constantly. Fear not ad-block seeker!

I just went through my setup to verify dnssec settings in unbound to troubleshoot strange latency when removing random names while browsing. Did you verify the unbound certificate file was created and had the proper permissions? There are also a couple other configuration items in unbound related to dnssec that can be tweaked to improve the implementation.

I tried again today with baremetal and docker install but I always end up with SERVFAIL after some time.

Focker Docker container in host mode is sufficient for most cases requiring bare deployment.
