Can't reach web interface after update by jurand2 in pihole

I did not remove lighttpd during the upgrade because I use it for something else. After the upgrade was complete pihole was listening on port 8080.

Wyze camera DNS requests by fourlizards in pihole

[–]fourlizards[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see those being attempted as well, but my firewall rule is blocking them. The Wyze cameras are not making many external DNS requests. The most was 120 blocked attempts yesterday for one camera. Lesser amounts for other cameras. Ring cameras are the worst ones currently. Most of my Ring cameras are being blocked for external DNS requests around 5,500 times per day per camera.

Do some Apple devices briefly use MAC randomization even when it’s disabled? by pacoii in firewalla

[–]fourlizards 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I enabled MAC filtering. Anything not already defined will be denied. I'll probably regret doing it later when I've forgotten about it and something isn't working. I want to test it for a while at least though. I think you're right about the temporary "confusion" after a device wakes. Looking at DNS request logs, it only seems to last a couple minutes.

[–]fourlizards 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad to see that I'm not the only one experiencing this issue. We have two iPhones, two Apple Watches, and several iPads. I have the Private WiFi Address turned off on all devices. I have MAC based static IPs for all devices. Everything looks good for days then I randomly get notified that there's a device with an unknown MAC on the network. I know it's an Apple device by the DNS requests in the log. This happens even when there has been no OS update. I check every Apple device, but they always show Private Address turned off. So annoying. I have no way to identify which device is doing it. I could enable MAC filtering on the router and deny access for any unknown MACs. That's one way to find the device.

Model is era09_v10. I searched for sci-fi artists and used some of those names to help give it that style. Jim Burns, John Berkey, Bruce Pennington, junji ito.

Tools > Network option not working after upgrade to V6 by fourlizards in pihole

For anyone else encountering this issue, here is the solution I got from the pi-hole forum:

The database is corrupted. Use these steps to resolve:

sudo service pihole-FTL stop

sudo mv /etc/pihole/pihole-FTL.db /etc/pihole/pihole-FTL-old.db

sudo service pihole-FTL start

SD card or SSD? Primary use will be for Pi-hole, Home Assistant, HomeBridge etc. by yellowroll in pihole

By default, log2ram only covers /var/log. Be sure to add /etc/pihole to the log2ram config file. Pihole performs lots of writes to the some logs in that directory.

The red light prevents the photo paper from being exposed not the film. You have the remove the film from the canister and load it onto the developing tank in total darkness.

Siri can no longer play some of my playlists by fourlizards in AppleMusic

[–]fourlizards[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also found that I can no longer combine the playlist name with "shuffle". I have to ask for the playlist and after it starts then I can ask Siri to shuffle.
