No queries are showing but pihole is working

Help
1

Hello,

I have a fresh install of Pi-Hole using DietPi. My 2 clients have the DNS hardcoded and Pi-hole is serving DNS and blocking ads. The issue is that the dashboard shows no queries/logs. I also do not see my clients. I have a DMZ subnet where the Pi-hole lives so its not in the same subnet, I have firewall rules allowed for communication.

Run from a client you expect to use Pi-hole for DNS, what's the output of:

nslookup pi.hole

nslookup flurry.com

How does the latter register in Pi-hole's Query Log?

C:\Users\PC>nslookup pi.hole
Server:  UnKnown
Address:  10.10.4.69

*** UnKnown can't find pi.hole: Non-existent domain

C:\Users\PC>nslookup flurry.com
Server:  UnKnown
Address:  10.10.4.69

Name:    flurry.com
Addresses:  ::
          0.0.0.0

I installed wireguard on the raspberry pi and when I am on the VPN, I can see the queries but I assume because that is all handled on the server locally.

What about:

I do not see anything in the Query Log from my PC

Let's the check the DNS server version:

nslookup -class=chaos -type=txt version.bind

nslookup -class=chaos -type=txt version.bind 10.10.4.69

I figured out the issue. I was also blocking Ads with Unifi Dream Machine Pro. That must have been intercepting the DNS packets.
