Hello,
I am running latest version of Pihole v5.4 in Ubuntu.
I notice that SafeSearch is not being implemented after adding the domain and IP under DNS Records.
I have bing.com as domain and 204.79.197.220 as IP, but it doesn't work.
Am I missing anything else?
how do I do this? where do I enter this?
I have tried adding bing.com as domain and 204.79.197.220 as IP address under DNS Record section, but that doesn't do anything.
I am running pihole in Ubuntu..how do I get to that file and what command do I need?
Thanks.
You have replied to a four year old thread. I moved your reply (above) to your related new topic.
Please run from a client
nslookup bing.com
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
Hi, sorry I am fairly new to this.. I have generated the debug log, but what do you mean by "just the token"?
Is that just a portion of that list?
When you are asked if you wish to upload the debug log, answer yes. Once the debug log is on our server, you will receive a token (a code that tells us how to find your specific debug log). The screen will look something like this (the token will be different, obviously).
********************************************
[✓] ** FINISHED DEBUGGING! **
* The debug log can be uploaded to tricorder.pi-hole.net for sharing with developers only.
[?] Would you like to upload the log? [y/N] y
* Using curl for transmission.
*****************************************************************
*****************************************************************
[✓] Your debug token is: https://tricorder.pi-hole.net/4LHHdIvx/
[i] Logs are deleted 48 hours after upload.
*****************************************************************
*****************************************************************
* Provide the token above to the Pi-hole team for assistance at https://discourse.pi-hole.net
* A local copy of the debug log can be found at: /var/log/pihole_debug.log
got it..

I have also added CNAME
but bing strict mode is not being implemented.
What was the output of this requested command?
Server: pi.hole
Address: 192.168.1.200
Name: bing.com
CNAMEs only work for those domains for which Pi-hole is authoritative. This is not the case in your situation - that is a public domain over which Pi-hole has no authority.
oh, does that mean I can't implement SafeSearch using Pihole then?
You can but you have to have an A record that Pi-hole would be authoritative for. A CNAME alone will not work.
You can try 204.79.197.220 strict.bing.com and see if that is enough.
I also notice that the Pihole is not blocking some websites... for example, I added this block list from github
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jumpsmm7/GeneratedAdblock/master/NoBypass.list
and pihole is completely ignoring it. I can still access the domains on that list... even if I add them individually.
But, if I add facebook.com, then it gets blocked. For some reason Pihole is ignoring the ones on that list...how come?
These are not the same.
so do I add the IP under the domain section then?
Where do I add it like it shows there "204.79.197.220 strict.bing.com"?
I don't see anywhere else in pihole do to this.
You added an IP for bing.com. I showed an IP for strict.bing.com.
So nothing? - please I need help with this.. what else do I need to do?
If you guys don't know how to force safesearch..at least help me add the block list link I provided prior..
When I try to add the link, I get this message...
This is the link https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jumpsmm7/GeneratedAdblock/master/NoBypass.list
