When enabling pi-holes DHCP, after leases expired it seems to have broken my minecraft server and the linux vm I run on my phone.
Expected Behaviour:
After pi-hole takes over leases from my routers dhcp I expect networking in all areas to continue running smoothly. Please include as much detail relevant to your system/install as possible including, but not limited to: (Obligatory neofetch)
root@sylph:/etc/dhcp# neofetch --off

Actual Behaviour:
After my dhcp leases were taken over by pi-hole everything works as anticipated except for my minecraft server which runs on a physical host called Ataribox, and the shell I run on my iphone called ishell can no longer do package updates, but has no problem doing anything else.
On Ataribox, here is some necessary information:

Minecraft Errors from ataribox
These errors were not present when the pi-hole was only doing dns. After it picked up on dhcp is where this became a problem. Just to be clear for anyone wondering, there isn't and has never been an instance where two dhcp servers are running at the same time. It seems the server can no longer do anything related to networking at all. Normally, I wouldn't care. But because it can't check in with microsofts authentication servers, nobody can join when the server is in online mode. When it tries to do anything to do with networking this is the error I get:

And it just does this over and over again with each thing it tries to check.

Now, if I try to resolve these things outside of the minecraft server it has no problem:

iSH not updating.
This one is bizarre to me too. Certainly, like with the minecraft server, this is a symptom of an underlying problem that is most likely to do with user error, but it boggles my mind as to what could be causing these things. I have an app on my phone called iSH which is supposedly a full linux VM running a shelll.
So in this particular example, things hang for a while and don't error. But, it's the hanging for an extended period of time that's odd to me here, also before hand there was an error with doing this same thing in recent:

Conclusion
Anyways, thank you for your time in looking at this, hopefully someone sees something goofy I have setup in my settings or something. When all is said and done I need to get the minecraft server back up and running, it had no problems until the pi-hole took over dhcp.
