I have since moved Pi-Hole + Unbound to OPNSense. My OPNSense Documentation - Unbound

Run the Pi-Hole helper script to simplify the LXC creation.

bash -c "$(wget -qLO - https://github.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVE/raw/main/ct/pihole.sh)"

Add the blacklists to improve adblocking https://firebog.net/.

For NSFW, try This doesn’t look like it’s working.

Unbound

Just follow the official guide. It is as easy as it is already included in the Pi-hole LXC installer. Everything is already good to go after installation.

If you don’t want to use Pi-Hole but want to use Unbound, you can use OPNSense with Unbound plugin to make things easier.

Local DNS Issue

When I SSH to hl1homepage1 for example, it redirects me to the NGINX Proxy Manager which is not what I want to do. To go around this, you’d need to add another entry in local DNS that would point to the server (e.g. hl1homepage1-ssh)
