Hi nostr:nprofile1qqsrkl7gyds37xh2af37uwlknvjm32ska3hgr5d0cwgzdqy0ux2r2ncpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgqg5waehxw309aex2mrp0yhxgctdw4eju6t026wkc9 , thank you for trying, it’s very helpful what you are doing and your work is very inspiring.

After reading your website I’m thinking about building my own ZeroSentinel nano on a pi zero 2w but got a couple of doubts that I’m sure your knowledge can kindly answer.

I’m already running unbound+pihole on a pretty ancient white MacBook, it is all it does 24/7 at the moment.

My will is to replace it with the ZSnano, but I am wondering if I can also add the pihole to your setup since I find it very useful.

I’m using it since already 3 years so I’m accustomed to its ux and I find easy to add lists and domains i want to filter out. Will it kill the raspy or interfere with something?

Second, since the MacBook will be lifted from the dns job, i would like to repurpose it as a full stack ZS for the other stuff like wireguard, canary+nostr dms, monitoring+metering, failsafe.

Do you think it will work or the 2009 MacBook is too old for the tasks? It has a core2duo@2GHz and 4GB ram, it is currently running a xfce debian bookworm and the unbound+pihole.

Thank you for your patience and the great job you’re doing to keep us informed and secure on the net. Onward! 💪🏼👌🏼🫶🏼

Add the ZS nano but keep it exactly as written. You want the isolation and any additions will add fragility. The entire point of ZS is resilience.

Then make your Mac a full ZeroSentinel Core. So WireGuard (optional), canary, DNS filter, and fall back redundant unbound and chrony.

Using Pi hole instead AdGuard means you will lose some convenience and scalability but they are doing the same function. If you are already comfortable with the UI, managing lists, and have an existing workflow then use it. That matters more than theoretical efficiency.

Happy building!

🫡 okay thanks a lot for your reply I’ll read all your ZS guides before changing my setup but I’m going with your recommendation. Have a good time ahead!
