Country Block
-
The SMTP Auth, SMTP Security, and Use HTML Drop down lists display the default values regardless of your settings. This is a bug, so just be aware that it may be displayed as one thing but it's another. This will be fixed soon now that it's identified.
I will also fix it so the password field will be black and the subject input will reflect on your emails.you know it would be great if you contributed around here a little faster ;-)
Sorry it's almost been 24 hours since my last version release.
With that being said….. :)Version 1.9 Released!
Changes:
- Fixed all email bugs (see robfantini's post)
The drop down lists now reflect your saved settings. The password can be blank. Your subject input is now the email subject as it should be.

Ive noticed since uninstalling cron that I have fewer system log entry's than I had before daily before installing cron… Just including this to say that something that was updating is no longer and may be something that was stopping Country Block before..... Interesting...
But...
Awsome Job Tom! Thank You!

Well pfsense is awesome already and the supporting people that keep it top notch make it better than anything else in the league. This package has made it even better for me. It is something that I was looking for that nothing else would offer for me. Well, within a reasonable price that I could afford that is. So to get continued updates/modifications ect is awesome. Even with paid software I havent seen this quick of a turn around when things are identified.

I agree , and you know my comment was an almost failed attempt at humor.
Seriously CB is something I was waiting for , it has cut our mail server's work load 90% .

Way to go TB on the CB. Your updates have been fast and great with awsome enhancements. I do have a request. Is there a way to maintain your saved settings after doing updates. I will always have to put the CIDR back in my whitelist. I whitelist all the BlackBerry RIM IP's and was wondering if there was a way to maintain youe whitelist in between updates?
Thanks again for this awsome package. I do agree it really adds a lot of value to pfsense. Not many firewalls out there that I know of can do this. And please if anyone can think of another firewall that has the ability to do this, please tell.
Thanks,
Matt

The file that holds your whitelist settings is /usr/local/www/packages/countryblock/whitelist.txt You can save that file and re-upload it after your updates to preserve your settings.
Thank you for your support! -
No updates for 48 hours? Hope your all right ;)
-
LOL. Yeah he has been pumping the updates out like crazy. This last update seems to be rock solid for me. Also Tommy, I appreciate the insight on the whitelist.
Thanks,

Thank you for the support! I don't think I will be pushing any countryblock updates in the near future. I need fix some other projects for the mean time and hopefully get some IPblocklist updates out there.

TB,
With the most recent package I am having a problem when I reboot the firewall. I am on the most current beta as well as of today.
When I reboot, country block will not be running even though the enable country block is checked at the top.
If I click save at the bottom and it refreshes no change. Still blocking 0 networks. Then I uncheck save then recheck and save same thing.
I do have a cron job set of it and when checking the sys logs I see this error.php: /packages/countryblock/countryblock.php: The command 'sh execute.sh' returned exit code '2', the output was '0 table deleted. sed: /tmp/rules.debug: No such file or directory grep: /tmp/rules.debug: No such file or directory grep: /tmp/rules.debug: No such file or directory 1 1 rm: /tmp/rules.debug.tmp: No such file or directory sed: /tmp/rules.debug: No such file or directory execute.sh: cannot open /tmp/rules.debug: No such file or directory'
If I reinstall the package, it will start working again. I have duplicated this multiple times this evening when rebooting the firewall.
Any reason why? -

Any reason why?If /tmp/rules.debug isn't found then your problem isn't countryblock. Are you running pfsense in transparent mode or is it even a Firewall? /tmp/rules.debug is the file that contains the pf firewall rules.
-
On some systems , /tmp is cleared on reboot .
Try copying some other files to /tmp , reboot and see if they exist after a reboot.
If /tmp is cleared on reboot, then /tmp/rules.debug should be stored in another location. like /var/tmp . on our system /var/tmp is not cleared on reboot.
-
It seems as if this is what is happening. That folder is being cleared upon reboot. I dont have anything specially configured to do that so so something must do that in the beta version when its booting as a startup script.
Does that TMP location pull the rules from elsewhere. The only app that seems to be affected by this is country block. Snort and other packages seem to be working just fine.
TB i have it set as a firewall. Its the Internet facing firewall at my location.
So either this is a change in most recent beta or how the newer package of CB is handling this. It was working ok on an older beta version and the 1.5 cb when I rebooted just fine.
-
Perhaps the startup script is running before your firewall rules are re-created.
Have you tried to manually run Countryblock after the system has booted, from the GUI?
