    @Ibor:

    @BBcan177:

    The package has a feature to backup and restore the DNSBL database for RAMDisk installations.

    Where can I find that feature precisely? Thanks in advance!

    Its done automatically in the background when RAMDisks are enabled…. No real need to touch it...

    @EDinATL:

    I had some particularly nasty ads popping up on my android which led me to want to manually block some ad servers via the DNSBL, so I eventually figured out how to do this today and used the method spoiler describes.  I found the process a bit confusing since the 'feeds' section would seem to be for feeds and not necessarily user defined lists.  At first I was manually editing a file in /var/unbound and mimicking the format used in pfb_dnsbl.conf which was cumbersome.  I was glad to find this method but I wish there had been kind of clue as to how to get there.  Thanks spoiler!

    Its not recommended to edit the /var/unbound/pfb_dnsbl.conf file as that will get overwritten on cron updates…

    The DNSBL Feeds Custom list is the easiest option to manually add Domains... You can also write the Domains to a text file accessible to the pfSense box (Local webserver) or on the pfSense box itself...  See the blue infoblock icons on the DNSBL Feed tab for more details...

    @guardian:

    Thanks…. that's a great help.  I should be able to work though this now.

    I was wondering what would happen if I:

    saved a copy of /usr/local/pkg/pfblockerng.xml

    switched off pfBlockerNG

    edited my copy, of pfblockerng.xml file

    reloaded the edited copy of pfblockerng.xml to pfSense

    then turned on pfBlockerNG

    Assuming that the edits were minor and I didn't make a mistake would that work?

    The pfblockerng.xml does not hold the configuration…. All configurations are saved in the pfSense config file:

    /conf/config.xml

    But editing that file should only be done with extreme care, or you risk crashing the config….

    You could also setup another box and use the "Sync" feature, that will push all the configuration to another box... and vice-versa...

    Are you using Safari?  I've only heard of issue with that browser :)  Not really much I can do about it…. Next release will have the option to sinkhole to 0.0.0.0 which will help with this issue.... But will also negate the logging feature.... So you could also just sinkhole to 0.0.0.0 for the domains that are causing these error messages.... But will have to wait for the next release...

    That is an optional rule.

    A permit firewall rule can be manually created to suit your network requirements…

    I will try to improve this to the next release ...

    @RonpfS:

    Check the DNS configuration on your Macbook, it has to use pfSense DNS resolver in order to have DNSBL blocking effective.

    Done. Fixed. Thank you.

    Thanks for the update, the problem is a firewall issue… I'll put the TL;DR at the top, and all the background below in case it's needed for some reason.  (might help someone like me who is new to this stuff)

    From the shell Filter Logs output... both ports are being blocked:
    Rule: 1000000103,em1,match,block Port: 8081 - mss;sackOK;TS;nop;wscale
    Rule: 1000000103,em1,match,block Port: 8443 - mss;sackOK;TS;nop;wscale

    Here's the offending rule... but I don't know what to do since this rule is high up in the chain above where the GUI can have influence.
    @5(1000000103) block drop in log inet all label "Default deny rule IPv4"

      [ Inserted: pid 55703 State Creations: 0    ]

    How can I work around this issue since this rule isn't one that I put in?

    Firehol is converting those Domain based lists into an IP format… I'd not recommend that...  The pfBlockerNG package has an IP and a Domain section.... so best to use the applicable format (IP or DNSBL)...

    Yes hpHosts has individual Feeds, or the combined feed linked above... Take a look at their website for further details.

    @guardian:

    Can you give us any idea of how they are compiled (source) so we know if they are a good match for our use case?

    Take a look at the Gist URLs… it will show a comment line for the source(s)...

    I'll certainly defer to the developers, but I doubt that it will cause any problems.

    I will post a much shortened list I ended up with which I got to by removing domains I know for sure are not for telemetry and also that broke other services.  The list is way shorter as expected.  But bear in mind its a game of whack a mole.  Microsoft at any point can change the domain names used or even connect directly to ip's.  This list I got here was last updated probably a year or so ago when I gave up on windows 10.

    Yes it needs to be in an unused network range, and is used to host the DNSBL Webserver…

    Maybe the MaxMind Database didn't get downloaded and installed correctly during installation… On the SG-1000, it might take more time to sort the MaxMind database... From looking at the partial install log from the other post, its missing the balance of the installation...

    Try to uninstall/Re-install. There is a setting in the General tab to "keep settings", uncheck that option so that it starts with a fresh installation...  Then do not move away from the installation window, until its completed its installation...

    As for setting it up, in general just read through the info panes built into pfbng & dnsbl. That should get you going, then whatever specific questions you may have after setting up either search the forum or post a quetion.

    As for feeds, here are some good places to start. The php import that BBCan177 wrote is what I primarily use.

    https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=117806.msg652480#msg652480

    I also just posted this which has some links to get you setup for really good content filtering.
    https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=124013.0

    I am not at all a computer or networking person, but through this forum and the info panes in pfbng I've been able to get it up and running and it's great.

    IMO it's the single most useful package for a home or small office looking to filter their network.

    Here are the links for Malware Corpus Tracker which can be used w/ pfBlockerNG DNSBL:

    Site:
    http://track.h3x.eu/about/400

    sure

    I used SECOIT GmbH's solution (crediting the original guy).

    His post is here.

    https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=89589.msg517047#msg517047

    Be aware with this solution, if you do an action that requires a unbound restart/configure, you will manually need to stop and then start in the gui. pfblockerng will still be fine tho.
