      To be certain I just reinstalled Unbound again, although I think I did.
      When I have v6 overrides in dns forwarder, unbound fails to start without error messages.
      It's not a big deal, as the v6 overrides are merely out of curiosity and to drive global v6 traffic a bit higher.

        Hrmm odd if i add a v6 override, for example:

        v6 google.com 2800:3f0:XXX:XXX::1014

        And restart unbound it is fine.
        Do me a favour please, log in via ssh and execute a unbound-checkconf - it should return "unbound-checkconf: no errors in /usr/local/etc/unbound/unbound.conf"

          Unbound gives me a no errors reply, just as you said it should. I'll try and enable my testing v6 forwards one by one to see if there is a specific scenario which causes unbound to stop working. Thanks for your help so far!

            Have you managed to test the v6 forwards?

              Hello Wagonza,

              Unbound still gives me errors in the log but works with the forwards.
              Adding the forwards one by one and reloading unbound in the ssh-console has helped unbound start properly.

              Thanks for all your help!

                What error did you see in the logs, the same timeout one? Can you do me a favour please and pm me the xml of the unbound section of your config.xml?

                Thanks

                      Problem sorted with host over rides that have empty host values. So just reinstall the package. Otherwise any other problems, please open up a new thread.

                        Having set some v6 forwards yesterday, I can confirm that the new fixes work as expected.
                        Thanks a lot wagonza!

                              Finally committed support for IPv6 acls  :P I have also updated the package to latest Unbound version 1.4.13. So give it a couple of hours while the package builder is building the new port.

                                Sweet!  Can remove them from my custom options section, which is how I have been adding them now.

                                See it listed already, installing now

                                Looks like you forgot a _ in the allow_snoop

                                php: /unbound_acls.php: The command '/usr/local/sbin/unbound-control start' returned exit code '1', the output was '/usr/local/etc/unbound/unbound.conf:67: error: unknown keyword 'snoop' /usr/local/etc/unbound/unbound.conf:68: error: unknown keyword 'snoop' /usr/local/etc/unbound/unbound.conf:69: error: unknown keyword 'snoop' /usr/local/etc/unbound/unbound.conf:70: error: unknown keyword 'snoop' read /usr/local/etc/unbound/unbound.conf failed: 4 errors in configuration file [1317328224] unbound[30144:0] fatal error: Could not read config file: /usr/local/etc/unbound/unbound.conf'

                                So I have an ACL that allows snoop, but in the .conf file its put in as "allow snoop" which killed my unbound now it can not start.  Trying to manually edit the ubound.conf now so I can get unbound to start.

                                        ok changed to allow vs allow snoop and looks good

                                        from conf file
                                        #allow
                                        access-control: 192.168.1.0/24 allow
                                        access-control: 10.0.200.0/24 allow
                                        access-control: 127.0.0.0/8 allow
                                        access-control: 2001:470:1f11:b85:0:0:0:0/64 allow

                                        changed it to allow snoop in dropdown and get this.

                                        access-control: 192.168.1.0/24 allow snoop
                                        access-control: 10.0.200.0/24 allow snoop
                                        access-control: 127.0.0.0/8 allow snoop
                                        access-control: 2001:470:1f11:b85:0:0:0:0/64 allow snoop

                                        missing the _ looks like to me.
