Unbound unbound_manager (Manager/Installer utility for unbound - Recursive DNS Server)

(S)He might really mean Quad9 (9.9.9.9).

It just seems unlikely as they're using CloudFlare below.

Technically, they had both Cloudflare and Quad9 in the DoT server list.

@dave14305 you're right (of course)! I just assume that anything below the first two is the IPv6 matching IP's.

I did too temporarily and missed the information/control/graphs too much!

After noticing that the 'i' option specifically said that the above warnings may be ignored? I just ignore it now!

And @Jack Yaz's ntpMerlin is back, baby!

I ignored the warning too. It would be nice if people weren't falsely put off using my script, however.

Hey @dave14305 with my client list bug I'm unable to list host names when using the "Clients" command since using unbound recommends not using the "Wan: Use local caching DNS server as system resolver (default: No) set to Yes" any idea what I can do instead?

Do what works for you. While in general it’s better to leave it as No, it used to be Yes for a long time (before it was even a customizable option). But if you ever have issues after a reboot with time not syncing, consider changing it back.

This was another prerequisite that is a best practice but not really required for Unbound to work, as best I can tell.

@skeal, what is this 'Clients' command you reference? And how can I leverage it for my usage?

It's called profile.add authored by @Xentrk look it up I can't seem to find the link.

It works still. I added a dnsmasq.conf.add file with server=/time.nrc.ca/1.1.1.1 in it and it reboots without issue. Thanks once again super dave!

@skeal thank you. I thought it was something else!

I'm a bit confused; how can I change this?:

 Options: Auto Reply='y' for User Selectable Options ('1 2 3 4 5')

when someone change ports in system tab those links are not fully usefull

[✖] ***ERROR Enable local NTP server=NO                                         see http://routers_ip/Advanced_System_Content.asp ->Basic Config

would be nice if

http_lanport=**
https_lanport=**

were added

You need to set your NTP server to on under Administration>System Tab.

If you answer "y" it will answer options 1 through 5 as Yes.

If you want advanced install you need to copy the URL from the GitHub site then it gives you full control. I believe the one in AMTM is the Easy option rather than advanced.

Finally something is using the available memory I have in this beast!

The original SME insisted on an 'easy' install, so when the script is invoked from amtm the menu is in 'Easy' mode.

i.e. As per the GitHub Hints/Tips

Easy mode
Advanced Mode​

So in 'Easy' mode you only have two options:

1. Install unbound (NO options)
2. Install unbound (ALL options) EDIT v2.07 now installs logging and CPU/Performance tweaks ONLY

Personally I didn't agree with this but (its a long story) so if you enter

e  = Exit Script

E:Option ==> advanced

you will be presented with the 'Advanced' menu so if you enter

e  = Exit Script

A:Option ==> i

you will be prompted to reply 'Y' to each of the available options, or alternatively you can invoke an Unattended install

Noted.

There is nothing in Syslog?

If it happens again, before reinstalling using 'i', does 'rs' fix the issue?

Perhaps you should set up logging 'lo', then 'vx' and set 'verbosity: 4'

Then reboot.

This may help track down your issue.

NOTE: I do experience a weird error (documented in the code) but since I never REBOOT between the numerous uninstall/reinstall cycles, when the script encounters the error, if I wait a few seconds, usually the error goes away, or I have to bite the bullet and REBOOT.

P.S. Don't forget to reset 'verbosity: 1'

I'll check it tomorrow morning with a reboot and log enabled as per your suggestion. I can't fool around with the router right now or my family will lynch me.

Is anyone having a problem with setting 'Enable local NTP server=YES' sticking? All other settings can be changed just fine, I keep notching this change to 'No' and then throw a warning in unbound manager.
