# Installation
## Arch
```bash
yay -S pi-hole-server
```
```bash
sudo systemctl enable --now pihole-FTL
```
```bash
sudo systemctl disable --now systemd-resolved
```
```bash
sudo rm -f /dev/shm/FTL-\*
```
## Debian
Debian has a long, boring setup.
```bash
sudo apt-get install wget curl net-tools gamin lighttpd lighttpd-mod-deflate
curl -sSL https://install.pi-hole.net | PIHOLE_SKIP_OS_CHECK=true sudo -E bash
```
# Setup
```bash
sudo usermod -aG pihole $USER
```
Remove that google dns server.
```bash
pihole -a setdns 9.9.9.9 1.0.0.1
```
Disable pihole password by setting a blank password.
```bash
pihole -a -p
```
Get a new list of blocked domains, then reload:
```bash
pihole -g -r
```
Every so often, run `pihole -g` again (perhaps put it in crontab).
## Check the Pihole
Observe the pihole's output while you ask it a question:
```bash
pihole -t
```
Then ask the question from another computer:
```bash
dig @[ pihole ip ] archlinux.org
```
## System-Wide Setup
To make the pihole work for the entire Network, enter your router and set the DNS server as nothing but your pihole.
