and also in, ### create new standalone qube
when I do
qvm-create --template $TemplateVM --class StandaloneVM --label red $PiholeVM
i have this message
[lovely@dom0 ~]$ qvm-create --template $TemplateVM --class StandaloneVM --label red $PiholeVM

[lovely@dom0 ~]$
and what happens, if you use:
qvm-create --template debian-11-minimal --class StandaloneVM --label red sys-pidns2
PS.: You also can use sys-pihole instead of using sys-pidns2 if you are more comfortable with it.
thank you for your help, I will continue the installation, just to confirm something, I installed debian-template-minimal, following https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/templates/minimal/ but I must install what extension needed for the pi-hole machine, among `

vim-minimal

[lovely@dom0 ~]$ qvm-run --user root --pass-io --no-gui PiholeVM 'systemctl stop resolvconf && systemctl disable resolvconf'
Failed to stop resolvconf.service: Unit resolvconf.service not loaded.
looks like your resolvconf isn’t/wasn’t running and so you get that error message.
You should move on with:
qvm-run --user root --pass-io --no-gui PiholeVM 'systemctl disable resolvconf'
Any message again?
Thank you, I will continue with the installation.
I have the same problem the same message
dex@dom0 ~]$ qvm-run --user root --pass-io --no-gui PiholeVM 'systemctl disable resolvconf'
Failed to disable unit: Unit file resolvconf.service does not exist.
thats okay, so the service is disabled already. You can move on with the other steps
[lovely@dom0 ~]$ qvm-run --auto --user root --pass-io --no-gui PiholeVM 'git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/pi-hole/pi-hole.git Pi-hole'
/bin/bash: line 1: git: command not found
i have the error
does the problem come from the debian-template-minimal? Or is it related to my wifi connection?
I installed gît, but it gives me the same error, I don’t know why
who knows why i got this error ???
hello, I took everything from zero, but this time with template-fedora-34
concerning the resolver command, I have the same error return, so as on template-debian-minimal, now by continuing I have arrived, at
# Flush the PR-QBS chain
iptables -t nat -F PR-QBS
type or[lovely@dom0 ~]$ iptables -t nat -F PR-QBS
bash: iptables: command not found
This lines have to be added in fw-update.sh under /rw/config/network-hooks.d/
you actually do this with the two commands:
qvm-run --user=root --pass-io --no-gui $PiholeVM 'mkdir -p /rw/config/network-hooks.d'
qvm-run --user=root $PiholeVM "xterm -e 'nano /rw/config/network-hooks.d/fw-update.sh'"

I added the two commands in terminal dom0
vm-run --user=root --pass-io --no-gui $PiholeVM 'mkdir -p /rw/config/network-hooks.d'
qvm-run --user=root $PiholeVM "xterm -e 'nano /rw/config/network-hooks.d/fw-update.sh'"
while continuing to do nothing, and when I redo
iptables -t nat -F PR-QBS
it gives me the same error, or is it me who understands something?
looks like it can’t handle the $PiholeVM placeholder…
What about you’re doing it that way:
qvm-run --user=root --pass-io --no-gui sys-pihole 'mkdir -p /rw/config/network-hooks.d'
qvm-run --user=root sys-pihole "xterm -e 'nano /rw/config/network-hooks.d/fw-update.sh'"
IF your pihole qube is called ‘sys-pihole’
After the second command a terminal should be opened, where you have to insert all the following commands (until ----End------ line)
it gives me these
type or paste code[lovely@dom0 ~]$ qvm-run --user=root --pass-io --no-gui PiholeVM 'mkdir -p /rw/config/network-hooks.d'
[lovely@dom0 ~]$ qvm-run --user=root PiholeVM "xterm -e 'nano /rw/config/network-hooks.d/fw-update.sh'"
Running 'xterm -e 'nano /rw/config/network-hooks.d/fw-update.sh'' on PiholeVM
[lovely@dom0 ~]$
the first command should be finished successful then and now (with the second command) it should open a terminal window anywhere on your desktop…
the second command makes that there is a terminal which should appear but it disappears too quickly before even appearing
If I understand correctly, I have to access the file,
fw-update.sh
which is in my virtual pi-hole machine, and when I access I will put the iptable command in it
iptables -t nat -F PR-QBS
and I save and I quit and I continue the installation, is that right?

here is what I did, and what it gave, in terminal dom0 I did
qvm-run --user=root PiholeVM "xterm"
and it opened the terminal
and I tried to access the file, but the file does not exist
the network-hooks.d folder is empty
if I understood correctly, I will create the fw-update.sh file, since it is not created

I created the file
fw-update.sh
and I put inside this file
these two
# Flush the PR-QBS chain
iptables -t nat -F PR-QBS
# Add a rule that redirects all the DNS traffic to localhost:53
iptables -t nat -I PR-QBS -i vif+ -p udp --dport 53 -j DNAT --to-destination 127.0.0.1
and what should be done? will I continue the installation? thank you
