Can't get pfBlockerNG to block pornhub.com

@Sergei_Shablovsky All right I got my VM system spun up. I am going to test this now it is set up with proxy use and blocking is good inside VM

I just have to install the VPN to test it now

Dang they even blocked me from using apple store in the vm

I am going to have to find another way to download it... The virtual machine I want to test this on has download limitations.

Again my proxy works now so I am only one download away from using the VM for its cybersecurity test after I can delete it.

I can not test this on the native os because it has a script that disables all services on the machine if you look at the GitHub. So it has to be in a sandbox environment, however my sandbox does not allow any App Store use. So I need the .dmg file somehow...

So how can I get the APP inside the VM if I can't get to the App Store?

I am working on side loading it now

[JonathanLee]

@Sergei_Shablovsky I am going to git hub clone it

My concern is the apple store version could be different.

@Sergei_Shablovsky Sorry but....

Netgate WON with the correct ACLs access rules. My firewall already has Newnode's VPN port blocked..

VPN connection is dead on first test Netgate stomped it out.

I got it installed and it started however will not connect because the firewall blocks access to ports it wants. It's not approved with proper Access Control Lists NewNode is not an issue, however this is dependent on someone that can configure a ACL list correctly, many home users do the default so this would work with default settings.

For now it is blocked on my VM test. I am going to spin down and delete this VM

This is a scary VPN it disables the native firewall on osX also...

I know from developer’s side, that GutHub and iOS/macOS versions are a little bit different.

But not too much.

Is it possible for You to test both NewNode and NewNode VPN on Your iPhone?

@Sergei_Shablovsky The only way would be to create a virtualization instance of the iPhone, I can look into it. Can I ask why? Any iPhone can simply turn off WiFi to bypass the firewall.

I try to understand if NewNode in VM has different behavior than NewNode app/VPN in real iOS device.

@Sergei_Shablovsky I can't help you with that I can only test with a virtual machine. The risk is too high to test on a live machine, sorry.

For situation where cell signals blocked and only in-house WiFi or wire are an options.

@Sergei_Shablovsky they have virtual phone software for Android, Palm Pre, and many others they should also have one for iPhone I just got to find an official one.

Anyway THANK YOU for help and understanding!
Have a nice sunny day!

@Sergei_Shablovsky Do you know of a way to virtualize iOS ? Palm Pre use to do this with virtual box...
