# Pi-hole and AdGuard Home Chained DNS
This directory contains the `docker-compose.yml` for running a chained DNS setup with Pi-hole and AdGuard Home. Both services utilize `network_mode: host`, making this stack suitable for standalone deployment on a dedicated host.
## Running with Podman Compose
To run this stack using `podman-compose`:
1. Navigate to this directory:
```bash
cd optimized/standalone/Pihole_Adguard
```
2. Ensure you have replaced placeholder values like `WEBPASSWORD` with your actual secure password.
3. Ensure the necessary host directories for volumes (`pihole_etc`, `pihole_dnsmasq`, `adguard_conf`, `adguard_work`, `adguard_certs`) exist or create them.
4. Start the services:
```bash
podman-compose up -d
```
## Notes
* This setup provides advanced DNS features, including ad-blocking (Pi-hole) and encrypted DNS (AdGuard Home).
* `network_mode: host` is crucial for both services to integrate seamlessly with your host's network and act as primary DNS resolvers.
* Careful configuration of upstream DNS in AdGuard Home (pointing to Pi-hole) is required post-installation.
* Ensure the volume bind mounts are pointing to correct and persistent locations on your host.
