I AM looking foto a good LET deal
Budget?
VirMach $1:

That's 192MB RAM, op asked for 512MB. You should have linked to the $15/yr minus $5 deal Virmach posted within the last week.
What country? Better to be closer to you.
We do offer KVM/512MB/15GB for $12/y with code

192MB is more than enough for pihole...
i had one with 256mb, with a list of 1.7 million its was slowing down a lot
pihole 4.0 doesn't run on openvz, due to its new dnsmasq
I have a virmach with pihole, 256mb, no swap, but its slow when using a large list
https://www.arubacloud.com has 1Gb RAM servers for €1.00 per month.
somebody must have setup free servers online
1.7 million will be slow on most things. I found I only needed around 100k-125k with no discernible difference in blocking.
Do you have info on that? openvz would have an impact on firewall, not DNS. They've been using dnsmasq for years, they are just more integrated now.
pihole 4.0 uses a newer version of dnsmasq, maybe it's not ovz compatible due to too old kernel.
Again, do you have any information on that? That doesn't compute with one of my setups that is working. I've also never come across any blog posts by pi-hole guys talking about openvz or mentioned in the changes to v4. A quick google on dnsmasq and openvz had years old posts, that were permission issues with workarounds. So I don't really know what you're talking about or what exactly isn't working.
Tested first:
Pi-hole Version vDev (FTLDNS, v3.3-181-ga7e7680) Web Interface Version vDev (FTLDNS, v3.2.1-195-g4355bde) FTL Version vDev (FTLDNS, vDev-5ecab0a)
Updated to latest, still works:
Pi-hole Version vDev (FTLDNS, v3.3-414-g169a428) Web Interface Version vDev (FTLDNS, v3.2.1-305-g070f925) FTL Version vDev (FTLDNS, vDev-3e40158)
Then I read pi-hole's v4 release, and did a checkout of master. Here is the current version:
Pi-hole Version v4.0 Web Interface Version v4.0 FTL Version vDev (FTLDNS, vDev-3e40158)
If the image (https://ibb.co/dO5WTK) doesn't show up, its basically just the Query log showing that when I pinged "justtesting.com", it was blocked by pi-hole, along with a bunch of Microsoft telemetry blocks from the default block lists.
If you're talking about running the new pi-hole Docker image they now support, that would have an openvz issue. But that's not DNSmasq and that's not pi-hole, that's just the platform.
do you know the meaning of the word 'maybe' ?
Do you know what a yes or no question is? Was just looking for a discussion link, which I found. This is a place to seek help and information after all. So far, it's looking like a permissions issue.
You, sir, are doomed.
Great, another Jehovah's Witness on the Internet.
I love the word pihole. I laugh everytime lol

Yeah, pretty disappointed by the changes their devs are making. Probably won't be doing much with pihole in the future. Limited knowledge and testing by them and that's bad when they keep adding features. It's just gotten worse for Centos and they are Ubuntu/pi centric, more now than before.
I don't know why they made a change to the capabilities or starting as pihole instead of root. I just removed the Linux capabilities and told it to run as root and it's working. So them adding shit to break working stuff is the hint things are just going further off the rails and will continue to be hacky and amateur for a while. When I saw a request for $100k in funding, I laughed so hard.
