    @johnpoz true, it works perfectly fine with IPv4. I just want to learn about IPv6 and I experiment with IPv6 only networks.

    @enesas [image: 1666107398986-dns-redirect2.png] it's actually doing DNS redirection. but pfblockerng's ad-blocking features do not work. I wonder why?

    @steveits @rcoleman-netgate I recently had a DNS resolver that restarts in 1-2 hours. Many people were victims until we solved it. Latest pflockerng > dnsbl > Resolver Live Sync Checking the feature fixed the problem. Of course it took time to find it. These and similar problems can happen from time to time. that's why I asked.

    @samitguy On your Windows DNS server(s) forward all queries to your pfSense. You may need to empty the DNS cache on the server(s) and any devices. ipconfig /flushdns on the PCs, or dnscmd /clearcache for the DNS Server cache.

    Update I stop pfsense in hyppervisor, than run in single mode. I mount zfs. mount -t zfs pfSense/var /mnt In folder /mnt/etc/named/etc/namedb/master/default are two files 192.168.192.DB.jnl and example.com.DB.jnl. Why BIND do not load the files on start pfsense?

    @bingo600 that's a good question. Think it came with my tivo which might explain why my tivo was trying to talk to 192.168.2.x. Might have been how my tivo communicated with my tivo mini. Main tivo works fine without it as it networked properly now.

    @bihzs if it's ubuntu take a look at /etc/systemd/resolved.conf #DNS= or there is a possibility that you will lose that setting on the next reboot

    @gertjan Pfsense uses 127.0.0.1 as it's nameserver (it was displayed then using the pfSense dns lookup tool). I checked all settings on my win10 client and even captured the packets with wireshark: The packets were definitly sent to pfsense and were processed there (i saw the specific lookup request I made in the unbound logs). Good idea to check the resolution with the cli, thx. However in the meantime, it seems like it's working: I have noticed that I didn't upgrade my pfSense for more than 3 months. Therefore I checked for updates and saw that the version 2.6.0 was available. I installed it and as of know, the problems are gone. Don't know if this was a bug in the previous version or what, but it was definitly strange... @johnpoz @Gertjan @SteveITS Thanks for all the help :)

    @johnpoz said in Stateless DHCPv6 and NTP server: I wouldn't prob setup on a laptop that is off most of the time, etc. But my pc is on 24/7 so yeah I install it on those. I just change where "Internet time" points to.
