Pi-Hole with Active Directory problem

Help
1

Hi there,

I'm having some trouble while using PiHole in my Active Directory environment, let me explain.
I'm using PiHole as my primary DNS server, set by my DHCP server to all my workstations. Domain resolution works fine, and, as i've set Conditional Forwarding on PiHole, all local ip addresses are being correctly resolved. But when it comes to domain operations, like renaming a computer or joining a new user on a workstation, the operation fails.

While trying to rename a domain computer and monitoring pihole with pihole -t, i got this:

Sep  6 18:49:40: query[SRV] _ldap._tcp.Default-First-Site-Name._sites.dc._msdcs.PiauiServ.local from 192.168.1.44
Sep  6 18:49:40: cached _ldap._tcp.Default-First-Site-Name._sites.dc._msdcs.PiauiServ.local is <SRV>

and a message on the domain computer saying it cannot find the domain controller.

Also, when i try to login in any domain computer with a newly created domain user, it fails while trying to find the user.

What can i do?

I can't say for sure, as I don't run any AD DCs in my network, but I'd probably start by picking a different search suffix/search domain/local domain:
You should avoid using the .local tld, as that is reserved for mDNS.
