Help: pihole local DNS record transfer to Opnsense router

daruma@social.fossware.space to Selfhosted@lemmy.world – 5 points –

Im trying to setup a DNS record in Opnsense to forward ex:( ***.local.mydomain.com ) to (192.168.1.777(nginx proxy)) but every option in Opnsense that I try it doesn't forward to my reverse proxy machine.

I have Unbound,AdguardHome and wireguard installed on the Opnsense.

Unbound port is 53 Adguard port is 5353

I tried going to: Services>Dnsmasq DNS>settings>host override, but it didn't seem to work I also tried logging to AdguardHome>filter>DNS rewrite, but it also didn't seem to work

What am I doing wrong, when I type (nslookup *.local.mydomain.com) I only get the response "server can't find *.local.mydomain.com"

Solved!!

In Opnsense I created a rule to forward my domain to an IP. You just need to go to Services>unbound>overrides>host overrides and add your domain

Thank you that was very informative, I went through again and found out that my Unbound is using the port 53 and Adguard is using 5353.

That means Unbound is the main DNS server on my case. Where would I put my (*.local.domain.com to 192.168.1.**) rule

edit: I followed a guide on how to install Adguard with unbound. https://youtu.be/7RC7q5WOYC0
