    I love pihole but I'm trying to reduce the amount of systems in use. With Pihole I have a list of local DNS records set up, mostly to send all Google and DuckDuckGo search requests to their Safe Search engine, it works great.

    How would I accomplish this with pfBlockerNG or pfSense? Thank you in advance!

      @prtonguy77 wouldn't really be a pfblocker thing. If you want some public fqdn to resolve to a specific IP locally. That would just be a host override in unbound.
