Other alternatives include running pihole on one machine (or all machines for backup), or giving them static IPs in your DHCP server and then copying a hosts file to them all.

- yjftsjthsd-h 7y agoOh yes, when it works it doesn't need any configuration:) (Well, aside initial setup, but that was years ago on Arch so it might be easier now...) But my personal experience was that it didn't always work, and then it was "fun" to troubleshoot. But seriously, do take this with a grain of salt; I abandoned it years ago, so it might "just work" now.
