I am using a Ubuntu and a raspberry pi
raspberry pi is my main computer that is running pi-hole, i want to figure out how to block certain sites, plz help!
Do you want to completely block a site, or do you want to block ads on a specific site? These tools can help.
I want to completely block a site
again my Rasp. pi is the computer that is running pi-hole on ETHERNET
i am using a pi 4 Model B 8GB RAM
i thought that would be some important info
i also bought it from Cana kit
like if a person tries to go on it, it wont load, or it will give a error
that's what it want it to do
completely block a SPECIFIC WEBSITE
For the domain that serves the website, block that domain. Example:
https://facebook.com/somecontent.html
is a URL.
The domain is facebook.com
To block Facebook, add the domain to your black list as a wildcard.
ok, let me try that...
it did not work
tried to block Netflix, i set it as a wildcard, then I tried to go on Netflix, and somehow, i got to Netflix perfectly, so it did not block?
From the device, please run
nslookup netflix.com
nslookup netflix.com IP_OF_YOUR_PI
Please upload a debug log and post just the token that is generated after the log is uploaded by running the following command from the Pi-hole host terminal:
pihole -d
or do it through the Web interface:
Tools > Generate Debug Log
yubiuser, do I do that on the pi? (the one that is running pi-hole)
yubiuser, do I do that on the pi? (the one that is running pi-hole)
The nslookup
commands from a client. The debug log on the Pi.
ok i will run on pi
thank you
@yubiuser so for example, i have a windows computer connected to pi hole but NOT running pi-hole, so on the windows i would go in the command line and do nslookup
?
i set up pi-hole on pi, windows is the computer i configured.
sorry for any inconvenience of me not understanding, i am a pi beginner.
looks like i did not configure my computer properly! sorry for any confusion
