Ad Blocking with Arch as DNS Server (a la Pi Hole)

Postby chris5h » Mon Aug 31, 2015 4:26 pm

Hi everyone,

So I have a Rasoberry Pi I run Emulation Station on for retro gaming. This morning I saw an article about using the Pi as a network wide ad blocker. Essentially it makes the Pi into a lightweight HTTP server and DNS forwarder.

This is an awesome idea I thought but I don't want to remove my Pi from its gaming position, but I do have my Odroid running Arch. I thought would be great if we could do the same thing thru Arch. Does anyone know if this is something we could do?

Thanks everyone.
