Add startpage?

Opened this issue · 8 comments

I just installed this on both my piholes, but it is not yet working. Is this because it is cached, and takes time to flush out the duckduckgo address?

Also, is it possible to add startpage to the list?

Thanks !

Hi Jayke,

Thanks for following up. Answers, in order:

  1. v.5.0

  2. The VPN DNS for PIA: 209.222.18.222 and 209.222.18.218

  3. I believe it is just the defaults:
    127.0.0.1 localhost
    ::1 localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
    ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
    ff02::2 ip6-allrouters

  4. This looks the way it should. It is a little long, but the first few lines are:

By "localhost", I assume you mean on the pihole. If so, that gives:
pi@unifipi:/etc/dnsmasq.d $ dig google.com

Any progress?

@jdsmf My apologies. Are we still having issues, or were those resolved, and now we just want Startpage added? I've been working many hours a week, so I have put coding/projects to the side temporarily, but I did see your message there and did not forget! Always in the back of my mind ;)

Actually, I think that it works now. It might have just taken time for the cache in my browsers to flush out with the old DNS.

I also looked into safe search with Startpage. It might not be so simple, since it works by settings, and not by domain.
