            I we can't figure out how to increase the table size limits for large lists like level1 then perhaps we can break the lists into multiple tables.

            Example:
            table limit will be 10,000 entries. More entries will go into another table. So if Level1 has 35,000 lines the we will have 3 tables

            • pfblocker - 10000 lines

            • pfblocker1 - 10000 lines

            • pfblocker2 - 10000 lines

            • pfblocker3 - 5000 lines

            What do you think? I hope we can find a way to increase the memory limit.

              Could be a solution for this problem.

              I'm still looking for a way to do it without multiple tables or file hacks.

              Does it happens on x64 versions with for example 4g ram?

              And thanks for widget clue.  :)

                I've included all countries and levels 1,2,3 plus some ads, virus, etc

                total:449418 Networks

                no erros.

                my system is x64 with more then 4g ram.

                  The problem is it isn't a RAM limitation. It's a memory max allocation variable that is small to begin with. So no matter how much RAM you have on x86 or x64 you will get that error once that limitation is hit.

                  This is why it is a problem. We need to be able to raise that limit other wise the functionality will be greatly limited, leaving users to fall back on IP-Blocklist.

                    449418 Networks seems very small for level1, 2, and 3 with others. Are you sure those lists were all successful?

                      Could we include in GUI an option to increase this value and advise users that its unsupported?

                      EDIT:

                      wc -l in level files downloaded in cidr from fetch:

                        kk. We could give the users the option. It would just be inserting that text every time that file gets recreated. I've already done most of the work in IP-Blocklist and Countryblock.

                        /usr/local/pkg/pf/pf-blocker.sh

                        
                        #!/bin/sh
                        export t=`grep -n 'User Aliases' /tmp/rules.debug |grep -o '[0-9]\{1,2\}'`
                        t=$(($t+'1'))
                        #Insert table-entry limit 
                        /usr/bin/sed -i -e '/900000/d' /tmp/rules.debug
                        
                        while read line
                        	do a=$(($a+1)); 
                        	#echo $a;
                        	if [ "$a" = "$t" ]; then
                        		echo "" >> /tmp/rules.debug.tmp
                        		echo "set limit table-entries 900000" >> /tmp/rules.debug
                        	fi
                        	echo $line >> /tmp/rules.debug
                        done < "/tmp/rules.debug"
                        
                        

                        This code isn't tested but it's on the right track. We will have to have it check if the user has enabled this feature. I do this is IP-Blocklist and countryblock. Basically if the user enables it the package will create a file. If it's disabled the the file will be deleted. The script above will check if the file exists```

                          ok, I think its good enough to prevent errors until some 'core developer' could help us.

                          I'll try to put it in php way for most code compatibility.

                          The last thing to finish pfBlocker is cron package integration.

                              use cron package instead of editing /etc/cront for lists updates…

                                Great work so far on the pfblocker package. I currently have a problem with it. I had countryblock installed and working previously. I removed that package and then installed the pfblocker package. The widget says that it is blocking networks but it comes up with a fail to load list message in the syslog.

                                Oct 29 01:38:43 php: : The command '/sbin/pfctl -o basic -f /tmp/rules.debug' returned exit code '1', the output was 'no IP address found for 1139.82.0.0/16 /tmp/rules.debug:16: file "/var/db/aliastables/pfBlockerInbound.txt" contains bad data no IP address found for 1139.82.0.0/16 /tmp/rules.debug:18: file "/var/db/aliastables/pfBlockerOutbound.txt" contains bad data pfctl: Syntax error in config file: pf rules not loaded'

                                This is what happens when i only try to block countries and set none on the list block. I can try inbound or outbound and still get same error. I have tried reinstalling it. Do you know what it might be?</pfblockerinbound></pfblockerinbound>

                                  Post here the countries you selected.

                                  I will check the script.

                                    I tired various countries, I get the same result when I select whitelist. I get the same result with all the countries. I have selected one from top spammers and one from south america. I also noticed that when i select one country from a tab then i can not unselect it. I can only select other ones. Using Chrome.

                                      I found the error.

                                      It's fixed now.

                                        tommyboy,

                                        Instead of editing /tmp/rules.debug, i will 'patch' filter.inc file with table-entries when clients choose to increase table.

                                        I will also write some code to alert user when table gets larger then default limit.

                                          That sounds like a good solution. We can use sed to insert the line to 'patch' and remove the line to 'unpatch'

                                            I don't believe this:

                                            Look what i found in filter.inc  after coding everything…

                                            set limit table-entries {$config['system']['maximumtableentries']}

                                            it was all time in front of our noses  :D

                                            I'll fix the code and relase a new version..
