Almost forgot before going to bed but I feel bi-weekly is a good rhythm for this.

Pihole 6 broke my DNS (dnsmasq), and since I had a fw rule in opnsense to only use pihole's DNS, and deny public DNS access, it was an early rise for me :)

    And that's why you have either a backup for your DNS or know whats auto-updated ;)

    As you mention opnsense:
    What do you mean with fw rules to only use pihole dns?
    This sounds partly like a DHCP config and partly like a deny (hardcoded) DNS requests and to please use what DHCP supplied (looking at you google/amazon)

    I did have backups, it was an easy fix. I had a pihole -up on a crontab for years, probably not the best idea :)

    FW rule accept :53 from pihole only, deny :53 from all. I had some devices with hardcored DNS settings (8.8.8.8).
