Expected Behaviour:
Changed local dnsmasq (pihole dnsmasq) record for most of devices in network. Things worked well. Changed pihole record and I expected pi-hole to get translated. So i could have that device accesible via shorter adress.
Does not seem to be so.
Running pihole -w pi.lan did stdouted that already included in whitelist.
Removed and added in console. Run pihole -g.
Opened in different browser. DID NOT HELP. Seems unrelated.
The block page is the 404 page. We prompt users to use pi.hole because then we know they are trying to use the web interface, so we can automatically redirect to /admin. Otherwise, we don't know if we should redirect or if there is supposed to be a site there. It can be better, but the reason you saw the whitelist message is because you whitelisted it.
