      yup lvl 1 tried all the other stuff for  mem increase with no success as well. as an aside ive just re-installed pf sense due to hdd completely dying on me. after installing iblocklist  and the lvl 1 it would seem that it is not loading all the ip ranges and I have almost half the number compared to peerblock thats running on windows.I've left the list continuing until the icon finished is animation in the tab then go back to the home page and back to iblocklist to check whats running etc.I dont have a clue as to whythere are less ip's , any thoughts.

        Is the number of IPs, just for the lvl1 list, 223972 or 241992? I see what's happening here.
        Your Lvl1 List is in fact working perfect and blocking all the IPs. The way the package gets that number is by counting how many lines are in the rule that is created which not only represents IPs but also Networks! I will update the package to reflect the correct verbiage.

            I've just re-installed all the packages that are on the box…..  re-install seemed to go ok, however this did nothing for the finctioning of Iblocklist :((  ??? :'(

            "Executing custom_php_resync_config_command()...done.
            Writing configuration... done.
            Starting service.
            All packages reinstalled."

              ok, removed HAVP through installed packages  dialogue….

              then the error moved to  line 55... so edited this  by removing the following references to  HAVP....

              havp rdr

              havp proxy ifaces redirect

              rdr on proto tcp from any to () port 8080 -> lo0 port 8080

              Iblocklist seems to have loaded the level 3 Ip's  ok and is now running....

              I'll post back  if as /when I get level 1  loaded and running...
              PS thanks  for the change to reported ip's etc...  Its realy important to me and I guess others that the reported lists are actually what is running.. I've come to trust peerblock as friedns have been handed letters and they only occasionally  use bittorrent  me I'm a BT whore... and I'l like to move that functionality off the server to the firewall :D

                  It seems like ipblocklist may have some incomparability with HAVP due to the way ipblocklist inject's it's rules into the firewall config.

                  I will do some digging around. Glad you got it working.

                    Because I'm just new to pfSense (new to Linux and BSD) my box is in the process of

                    install pfSense
                    update pfSense
                    install packages
                    uninstall packages
                    reinstall pfSense

                    I think it's good for me because while I'm learning how it works little by little I have the feeling that I already memorized the process of installing/reinstalling  :)

                    My concern is for several installation now I can't make ip-blocklist to work. Added list is not showing, though if I will add the same list I can see it is already on the list. The status also showed not running though enabled is checked. My installation/reinstallation magic is not working  :)

                    How can I check if it is already working or not. Looks not for me because I added Onion Router and Tor list from I-Blocklist and I can still connect to Tor network.

                        google chrome 5.0.375.126

                        I just check with firefox portable 4.0b5pre, the list is there but the status is also "Not Running". Clicking Save/Update makes it run but it's not running again when I restart pfSense. Is it normal?

                        The list display is also fine with IE.

                          I think you are missing something. 1. Paste your list link into the form and press '+'. 2. Check 'Enable IP-Blocklist. 3. Click Save/Update.

                          IE doesn't work with this package. Use FF.

                            Yesterday I noticed that Country Block also interferes with HAVP… I was sad to have to uninstall it...

                              I just updated to the latest snapshot build, using ff ip-blocklist installed fine and i added

                              http://iblocklist.com/list.php?list=bt_level1
                              http://iblocklist.com/list.php?list=bt_proxy
                              http://iblocklist.com/list.php?list=tor

                              Tried to connect to tor and still works fine. The status is running.

                              Also, is disabling a certain list (like a checkbox) and not enable all or nothing on the plan for the future releases?

                                As a follow-up, is this normal?

                                Same, using this list:

                                  Please look back on previous posts, this has been discussed twice now. Please read the FAQ as well.
                                  Also, I am still working on HAVP compatibility for those of you who want it. It sucks right now that one or the other has to be disabled so if there is anyone who knows php, you can help.

                                    I am really happy to see this package! I am going to give it a shot and if all goes well I will roll it out to all my pfSense boxes.

                                    Many thanks to the author! :)

                                        So far I am pretty impressed and happy. :)

                                        I don't mean to sound picky, but is there a way to whitelist? Or will there be in the future?

                                          That is coming in the next couple updates. I haven't had time to even sit down and look at the package lately due to other priorities.
                                          As soon as I have a good amount of time to dedicate to the project I will update the package.

                                            Hello, I'm french, so sorry for my bad english ;)

                                            I use Pfsense V2 and Ip-Blocklist.

                                            I try to put level1 and level2 list in ip-blocklist

                                            When I Save/Upload I have this message :

                                            Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 81 bytes) in /etc/inc/util.inc on line 780

                                            As said in previous message i try these thing :

                                            • Add memory_limit = 128M in /usr/local/lib/php.ini and /usr/local/etc/php.ini -> It disapear after reboot

                                            • Add ini_set("memory_limit","128M"); in /etc/inc/config.inc -> Maybe it work… Or not... It doesn't shown in /usr/local/lib/php.ini or /usr/local/etc/php.ini

                                            • I think 128M is not enough so I try to put 256M -> Exactly the same
                                              _From I-Blocklist, lvl1 is about 814983437 IPs and lvl2 is about 330844784 IPs. After the error message, I have only 326376 IPs Blocked and the Status is Running.

                                            An other thing is strange, when I "Purge All" The 2 lists stay in the "Current List(s)"
                                            When 1 Add just lvl1 list, it's ok. The "Current List(s)" show me 1 list..

                                            And the last strange thing (but maybe it's normal), when I go to Status: Package logs, it say : "No packages with logging facilities are currently installed." (And the "Enable Logging" is check and saved in Ip-Blocklist of course)

                                            I Tryed to uninstall and reinstall the package several time. Nothing work.

                                            I Have these package installed :

                                            • Cron

                                            • NUT

                                            • Snort

                                            • IP-Blocklist of course

                                            Can you help me please ?

                                            Add : I use Firefox ;) and the list are these in the exemple : http://iblocklist.whitacrecomputers.com/files/bt_level1.gz_
