PfBlocker

Did a package delete and rebooted….

I think it has issues with 2.0.2 release…..</pfblockertopspammers></pfblockertopspammers>

Did a manual delete in rules.debug to remove pfblocker aliases.

Now it says this…

Looks like memory allocation errors.

Did you go to system > Advanced > Firewall/Nat tab and increase the Firewall Maximum Table Entries?

I have had to increase mine quite a bit to run all my tables. I currently have mine set to 999999999 and no longer get any memory allocation errors.

Supermule

Its currently set at 200.000 table entries…and 100.000 tables...

kilthro

increase it way up. Thats most likely the problem. Its not going to affect the firewall negatively. You see where mine is set and all runs just fine and I dont get those errors anymore.

Supermule

Whats your maximum tables and table entries??

kilthro

Attached everything on that page. I didnt touch anything else. Left it at default.

I have pfBlocker loading a list from the following url:
http://www.dnsbl.manitu.net/download/nixspam-ip.dump.gz

I decompressed the .gz to look at it and found text in the following format:

2013-01-21T20:15+0100 78.39.223.180
2013-01-21T20:15+0100 49.202.135.218
2013-01-21T20:15+0100 213.108.75.31
...

I have 2 systems that handle this list fine.
One other system scrambles the file content - loads nonsense IPs the table - is why I peeked inside the .gz

The thing is, I thought pfBlocker had to have the IP addr/cidrs at the beginning of the line. Looks like I'm wrong.

In what format(s) does pfBlocker need it's IP data?

@LinuxTracker:

It loks for ip addresses using preg_match, if you can edit it to remove ip date, it may help.

@marcelloc:

The list loads fine on two systems; now I know why.

The system that scrambles the data has 27 lists loaded.
It's probably just reacting to all the abuse I heap upon it.

As always, thank you for your insight.

Gradius

The real main issue is even on last update 2.1-BETA1 (today), pfblocker still doesn't comes up as ENABLED.

Everytime after update I need to go there and manually enable myself. ::)

Pfblocker uninstall script will always disable the service to avoid aliases/rules issues.

It's a feature, not an issue ;)

Hi, I added support to insert portlist file. this way peoples can customize installations with pre defined rules from their web sites.

you can deploy port list file with adding #PORT_LIST_PF text to begin of file.

i hope you will include this changes to next release and it will helpful to others.

example port list file: safeports.txt


#PORT_LIST_PF
21#ftp
22#ssh
25#smtp
53#dns
67#dhcp
80#http
110#pop
443#https
587#new smtp
1433#sql server
3306#mysql
3389#rdp

replace bellow code in your /usr/local/pkg/pfblocker.inc

add this function to after pfblocker_Range2CIDR function


function pfblocker_Range2Ports($port_min, $port_max) {
	#function called without any args
	if ($port_min == "" || $port_max == "")
		return "";
	#function called with same ip in min and max
	if ($port_min == $port_max)
		return $port_min;
	$bas=intval($port_min);
	$start_port+=1;//skip first value because its already processed
	$res="";
	$end_port=intval($port_max);
	for($i=$start_port;$i<=$end_port;$i++) {
		$res.="$i\n";
	}
	if($res!="") 
		return $res;
}

So that way Pfblocker only works on specified ports and not on all??

asbirim

No, not like that,

this way you can add port alias to firewall or just block ports

marcelloc

@asbirim:

this way you can add port alias to firewall or just block ports

On current version, you can use alias only option and create your own rules using, port aliases, connection limit, limiter, etc, etc ,etc.

thanks for the great package. have been playing around with it for a couple months now, but just realized something a little odd. i have a few iblocklist and linuxtracker lists, but i've never seen them update (at least the system log doesn't say so). anyone else have the same issue? i know the iblocklist lists are updated weekly at least and linuxtracker used to update his twice a week. any help would be much appreciated.

marcelloc

What update frequency did you applied to this list?

Can you install cron package and check if pfblocker schedules are there?
