Hi,

my setup:
Container A running Pi-hole
Container B running dnscrypt-proxy (Port 5350) and cloudflared (Port 53) proxy

On container B

Does someone know why I don't get a connection from A to B

Thanks!

Hi,
do you have a firewall enabled, possibly interfering with the traffic? Also, are both containers connected to the same bridge/network, are they in the same subnet? Try to ping the other container.
