So for those that already have a stamp, what was your process like? Were you asked any questions by immigration on your way back? And how many days were you in India for? A month? A few weeks?
Also what airport did you come back to in the US? Jfk? Philadelphia?
Just curious.
On the technitium app its possible to disabled blocking but how on earth do i disable blocking on the gui???
So how on earth can I use html config instead of just json? The default block page config is too simplistic and I want to use html to make it look presentable, this is of course running in my homelab but yeah I want to make it look better.
I tried pasting html code in the config and it won't take it and only expects json.
Thank you
Hello all,
So ive tried to set up clustering and it keeps showing unreachable after it shows as connected initially (for like a minute or so).
I selected the "ignore self signed cert" option when trying to set up.
On the secondary node i see this error on the logs-
[2026-04-26 08:28:59 UTC] Heartbeat failed for Primary node 'technixxxxx.homexxxxx.lan (x.x.x.x)'.

####___TRUNCATED___####
I do not see any errors on the primary node.
Overall im having a nightmare setting up clustering, please help!!
Both piholes are literrally connected to the same switch and there is nothing blocking the port 5380 or blocking anything between them for that matter and like i said it shows connected initially for maybe a few seconds and immediately shows unreachable, and i guess according to the logs above the issue is on the 2nd node?
Thank You
