Expected Behaviour:

Traying to connect by ssh fail, some with browser.

Actual Behaviour:

In terminal have this answer.
ssh_exchange_identification: read: Connection reset by peer

Debug Token:

Can't connect to pi.hole neither with terminal or browser.
$ nslookup pi.hole
Server: 192.168.x.xx
Address: 192.168.x.xx#53
that is address of pi.hole, dont know what is #53
ping is passing.
traceroute to 192.168.x.xx (192.168.x.xx), 30 hops max, 60 byte packets
1 orangepizero (192.168.x.xx) 0.514 ms 0.512 ms 0.549 ms
so it means pi.hole is running.
Any hint before pull the plug.:confused:
p.s. nano pi neo2 is mild temp

Try adding the -vv flag to ssh to see more info about why it is failing.

Pi-hole should not be affecting that process, so try restarting the system.

pi.hole puling the plug or my system?

6

Force-restart the Pi-hole by whatever you need to do (such as pulling the plug).

OK I pulled the plug :slight_smile: and it's working again. Must say one thing, before this only thing I changed is disabling DHCP server on my router.
It probably is unrelated. I don't know how dangerous for OS system is pulling the plug.
Thank you.
