IP-Blocklist
-
The lists can be any format such as .txt, .list, .IPs, and even no extention as long as they are plain text lists. If they are compressed then .gz is the only supported compression.
You list (http://www.countryipblocks.net/e_country_data/Asia_cidr.txt) is not in the correct format. Lists have to be in the PG2 format (Asia:58.16.15.56-58.100.0.100)
For country IPs you can either find countries at http://iblocklist.com/lists.php or make you own list.
I make my own lists at http://gskinner.com/RegExr/
For example I want to convert a .csv of IPs from www.stopforumspam.com to the PG2 format.-
Paste all the IPs in http://gskinner.com/RegExr/
-
Click find a replace, do a find for "\b\d{1,3}.\d{1,3}.\d{1,3}.\d{1,3}\b" and a replace for "\nIP:$&-$&"
Now that only works for single IP addresses
Since your list (http://www.countryipblocks.net/e_country_data/Asia_cidr.txt) is in CIDR format then you will have to find a script or online application to convert CIDR to IP range.
Here is a link that can help you convert CIDR to IP range: http://www.unix.com/shell-programming-scripting/34301-get-ip-list-cidr-2.html
Once you convert your list to IP range then you have to convert to PG2 format with http://gskinner.com/RegExr/If you are going to use www.countryipblocks.net then download the "IP range" list and convert to PG2 Format

speaking of iblocklist.com, it's as simple as copying the "http://list.iblocklist.com/?list=bt_level1" to add list url and that's it? or do I have to do it some other way?
-
It is that simple. :)
Just make sure you get the true url. Since the link you posted is a pointer to several mirrors that host that file you need to click that link and then copy the url to paste into the package.
Example: http://list.iblocklist.com/?list=bt_level1 points to http://iblocklist.dbnservers.net/files/bt_level1.gz
So you would paste http://iblocklist.dbnservers.net/files/bt_level1.gz into the package. -
got it! thanks mate ;) This package is very nice.

Since your list (http://www.countryipblocks.net/e_country_data/Asia_cidr.txt) is in CIDR format then you will have to find a script or online application to convert CIDR to IP range.
That is a large step backward. CIDR lists are much faster since pf supports them natively, and your app has to translate them back into CIDR lists anyhow. Converting them away from CIDR format will only slow things down.
It should be fairly easy to add support for CIDR lists to your app, or the person who wants to use CIDR lists can just use the URL Table Alias package instead, which currently only does CIDR or IP lists, since that's pf's desired format.

I still get this when hitting save/update
Warning: file_get_contents(wlists.txt): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /usr/local/www/packages/ipblocklist/ipblocklist.php on line 30

Jimp,
I completely agree with you. In fact CIDR is supported in pf (edit-I see you pointed that out above). The reason is because my package is specifically written for a specific format, the PG2 format. This PG2 format requires IP address ranges. The package then converts the ranges to CIDR format to import into a pf table.With this being said I know it seems completely backwards to begin with but for those who have wanted PeerGuardian2 or Peer Block at the router level can defiantly appreciate this package and the list format it requires.
My suggestion for those who want to block countries is to first look at iblocklist.com for that country, if they don’t have your country then download the IP range list and convert.

Browse to the Whitelist page, the error will go away.
EDIT2:
If there are enough people out there that would like to see a Country block package, I can make that in a couple hours. Just keep in mind that iblocklist.com has several countries already in the PG2 format and I am sure you can find every country in this format somewhere in the intertubes. -
YES PLEEEEASE!! ;)
-
Haha.
Well I think that's enough for me. Look for the Country Block package here soon.
-
Will this allow me to block all countries except the US?

I got most of the PG2 packages installed from iblocklist.com except the country ones which didn't come up in .gz format. Reading the previous posts, I went to www.countryipblocks.net and made the "IP Range" for the countries desired and then attempted the gskinner.com which got me all confused. I didn't understand the "find a replace, do a find for… and a replace for..." in reply #53.
This leads me to my question - is there a simple PG2 file that has all the countries in one and then if I were to add individual countries on the whitelist would that override the manual list?
I ask this so that everything is blocked by default unless I were to specifiy otherwise without having to reparse a new list (or add every single country individually) everytime I need to give access to a certain country.
Otherwise this is a really cool package and thank you!

1.2.2 pfsenseYou will need to create a small list
Website1:192.168.1.100-192.168.1.100 website2:192.168.1.101-192.168.1.101 website3:192.168.1.102-192.168.1.102 website4:192.168.1.103-192.168.1.103That list will work perfect. Now just upload the list to a site where you can download and add to the package.

Anothe thing: I use my pfsense box to establish adsl connection with isp. Whenever it reconnects, ip-blocklist is disabled because pfsense reloads stuff. Can this be corrected?
-
thanks for the reply, but its about exceptions tom..i have two users.user1 is allowed to access https site2 and https site1 but is not allowed to access https site3..user2 is not allowed to access https site2 and https site3 but allowed to access https site1..i can block http sites but i cannot block https :(..i need to open 443 because i use gmail and other email that uses 443..the sites that im going to block is facebook.com, youtube.com,friendster.com and multiply.com. i already block http using squid..but user will use https, i cannot block https :( please share your knowledge…thanks

Here's a question. I have taken this as straight forward but apparently I'm doing something wrong. I installed the package, added the URLs (with .gz), rebooted, and then "Save/Update" however the status continues to say "NOT running" and even after rebooting.
I did find a post mentiong a possible uninstall/reboot/reinstall/reboot/add .gz URLs/reboot/enable would work but alas it has not. Please verify what I may be doing wrong. Thank you.

Use Firefox as a browser….. I did an it worked...

Hey good idea lol…I normally use Opera and when things don't work I try out IE which seems to be the "overall default" of web designers. Here is what I receive when I used Firefox:
(after a minute and by itself)
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 81 bytes) in /etc/inc/util.inc on line 380(right below "Current Status = NOT running")
/tmp/rules.debug:90: syntax errorI did upgrade my system from 256MB to 768MB even though the above bytes considered 128MB...some allocation somewhere that needs to be set?

The Allowed memory error is the webserver hitting a limit set in php.ini. You can increase this limit if you like, however the package will still work properly just let it finish before you refresh the page. In FF you can still see the loading animation in the tab even with that error, wait for that to finish.
Take a look at Cino's post on page 2 http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,24769.msg130002.html#msg130002
EDIT: You only get this error when you use large lists or a huge collection of lists.
