Hi all

I have been hosting adguard home on a local raspberry pi for a few years now. A few moths ago I changed everything around as I wanted to host more on that pi and moved to a docker setup.

Everything works, but I see that I have about 70k dns queries in 24 hours. and about 90 percent of that is just a query for “.” from an IP which I guess is my raspberry pi’s interal docker IP?

Anything I can do about that, or is that normal?

    I’d guess that you have another DNS server on your network which is trying to get the list of root name servers (what the . means) via AdGuard.

    I’d guess that there are so many queries because something is going wrong with it’s attempt to get the root name servers from AdGuard so it’s doing it over and over (because it can’t function without them).
