Guide for pihole+unbound on docker (single docker-compose.yml) — by heis2201, rdwebdesign and Bucking_Horn on Pi-hole Community

intermediateforumLink only (©)

A poster shares his single compose file running Pi-hole and Unbound as two containers on one bridge network, with Pi-hole's upstream pointed at Unbound and the listening mode set to all. Replies note there is no official Unbound image, that container names can replace fixed IPs, and that the web password can be set through an environment variable. Check it against current Pi-hole v6 settings.

Pi-hole installation — by Pi-hole documentation

beginnerpage

Official install page for the Pi-hole network-wide ad blocker, offering a one-line installer, a clone-and-review route, or Docker. The page itself notes that piping a script to bash is controversial, so the download-and-read option is there if you want to inspect it first.

Proxmox Media setup help — by BadCo_NZ, Dratatoo and others on Level1Techs Forums

intermediateforum

A home-server design thread about where to keep media for Plex/Jellyfin on Proxmox. Responders suggest mirroring the NVMe with ZFS, running Docker apps in a VM (or apps in LXCs), sharing storage to them by NFS or virtio-fs, a separate VM or container for SMB, and putting any VPN on a pfSense or OPNsense gateway. Opinions differ, so treat it as discussion rather than a single recipe.

Tips for building proxmox servers — by PigLover and ttabbal on ServeTheHome Forums

intermediateforum

An older ServeTheHome thread where the poster plans three Proxmox nodes backed by shared NAS storage. Replies recommend skipping hardware RAID, letting the Proxmox installer build a ZFS mirror for the boot disks, and using small enterprise SSDs instead of old 15K SAS drives. Hardware advice dates from the thread's era, so check current parts.
