Maybe you can answer this... Why does it take like 10 minutes for OMV to reboot due to my VM's? line after line counting down closing my VM's.
Scheduled Reboot, did not reboot.

I don't use VM's but that could very well be.

I use several VM's and that is exactly why. Debian/OMV will try to gracefully shut down any running KVM VM's to try to avoid corruption of the VM's. They are pretty resilliant anyway, but just like it's better to execute a shutdown on the hardware, rather than pulling the plug out of the wall, it's better to have them shut down gracefully.
The more light weight the VM is, the faster it will shut down. A small linux server vm will go down pretty quick, but a windows VM could take a minute or so, particularly if there are running softwares in it that need to close too.
You could potentially speed that process up a little by moving things like your pihole I helped you set up to an lxc instead of a vm (just use a macvtap as the network connection to make it appear as a LAN ip address), since you are only using it for local DNS, but anything that is web accessible is better in a VM for the increased isolation. Any windows VM's can of course also be set to manual start up and shutdown when your are finished with them if you don't have a need for them to be running continuously.

Ahhh interesting. That does make sense… going through the power down will do the correct procedure to shutting things off safely rather than sudden power kill. I can live with that.
As you said, you helped me install PiHole for local DNS but being it is indeed also an adware blocker I suppose I need it on a system that is not being shut down. I will have to go through everything and see what servers I need up and what I don’t; the ones I keep up 24/7 (such as the Opnsense cause it’s my router) maybe I’ll add PiHole to that. Either way, I get your point.
Thank you
FYI. If you only need local DNS, OPNsense has that built in, and you don’t need Pihole, but it doesn’t have the add blocking that Pihole offers

ipfire has all of it and more. I dumped pihole and pfsense a long time ago and ipfire has been doing an amazing job.

This looks very good.
Does it make sense to put this behind a Sy*****y router to take advantage of some of the features? Or is it stupid?

Probably not. A lot of its features I like make sense when it is primary router. I don't know how it would work as a second level router.

Probably not
Ok, thanks anyway for mentioning ipfire. It could be useful in the future, I'll leave it on my schedule. (Maybe create a mesh network...)

Was the switch easy Rye? I thinking of doing the same.

Took me a bit to figure out where things were after using pfsense for so long but now it is worth it. ipfire upgrades are much better than pfsense. Have the ip blocklists on the router instead of pihole makes more sense to me as well.

do you use any of the addons rye?
-
do you use any of the addons rye?
Nope. I don't need any. Every feature I need is already available in the base install.

What all do you have on there?
Normal router things plus ip address blocklists (pihole), dynamic dns, and location blocklist.
