  • When I try to run "sudo nano /etc/systemd/resolved.conf.d/adguardhome.conf " it opens up GNU nano 7.2 and tells me at the bottom of the screen that the file is actually a directory and refuses to let me copy/paste anything into it.

    EDIT: Looks like the issue for me is with nano. It’s trying to make this a directory instead of a file. I’m able to get it working with vi. If anyone is haveing the same issue, you have to delete the “file” you made with nano, then make a new one with vi before it’ll work.

    That being said, the last portion regarding the DHCP conflict also isn’t working, probably due to the formatting not being specified.

    EDIT2: Looks like the real issue for fixing port DNS port 68 (the DHCP conflict) is a bit more complicated. There’s multiple different possibilities for what the file you need to modify can be named.

    Personally, the solution I’m going with is to just disable port 68 for adguard. According to this source, the only downside is having your router handle DHCP, which I’m fine with at the moment. The source I posted refers to port 67, but it works for port 68 as well.

    If anyone reading this would prefer to let Adguard use port 68 by setting up a static IP address, This guide is more detailed and also includes some of the variances in filenames you might come across to better solve the problem for your setup.
