      @doktornotor:

      "For LAN interface" is useless when the traffic is from localhost. Perhaps tick and select LAN and loopback under DNSBL - DNS Block List Configuration - DNSBL Firewall Rule.

      I do have the LAN and loopback selected under the DNSBL Firewall Rule. This only ensures that the firewall doesn't prevent LAN and loopback from accessing the DNSBL VIP. It won't, however, 'make' Squid go to port 8081 for a blacklisted domain.

      I think a solution to this problem might be the use of a reverse proxy, which I'd have to look into to see if it's possible. But thanks Doc for your comment.

        I think that will produce one giant kaboom, but whatever… You should rather look into NAT firewall rules with "This firewall" as source.

          Yeah, it involves some manual settings in lighttpd conf files to enable reverse proxy for 80 -> 8081 and 443 -> 8441. The settings will survive reboots, but won't survive any 'Save' done via the GUI. Still, it hasn't quite kaboom on me.  ;D But definitely not preferable.

          Re: NAT firewall rules. Unless there's something there at the NAT rules where it allows me to choose Localhost as the Interface, nothing that I've tinkered with so far has any effect on Squid. But thanks for the idea, Doc.

          Edit: I've said too soon, the manual settings in lighttpd conf files get 'refreshed' after reboot. So now I have to look for a different solution.  :(

            Having problem with unbound that doesn't start on reboot

            I did a fresh install of  2.2.5-RELEASE (i386) built on Wed Nov 04 15:50:18 CST 2015 on a Asus P4P800 P4 3.0GHZ 2GB.

            On the old system, I had 2.2.5 x386 snort, suricata, NTopNG, PfBlockerNG v2.0.1 installed.
            When I restored the config, package re-installation failed, no resolver was running, so I set pfsense to use the resolver of the WAN DHCP interface.

            I reinstalled all package, remove the WAN DNS from General Setup, things run fine but when I reboot unbound isn't running, I can start it and it keep running.

            So I desintalled the packages, reinstall snort and suricata, reboot is fine, unbound is running .
            Installed pfBlockerNG v2.0.2, everything is fine, reboot , unbound isn't up, I start it and it is fine

This did not happen with the old system, but I can no longer do any test on that system, today it has disk error when I boot it  :-\

On a few reboot, unbound was running at bootup but it silently died, a restart keep it running.</a>

              Hi RonpfS,

              When you restored the backup config, was DNSBL installed? If not, then in the Resolver Adv. settings, there would have been this line:

              server:include: /var/unbound/pfb_dnsbl.conf

              but that file would not exist yet. So Unbound would fail to start.

              Since installing DNSBL, did you enable any of the 'DHCP Registration' options in the Resolver? There are some issues with those options.

                Yeah I figured out it would have been better to disable pfBlockerNG before saving the old config.

                No I don't have the DHCP registration ticked nor Static DHCP.

                I am having trouble with the Suppression List.

                Do I need to create a rule with pfBlockerNGSuppress to permit traffic or is this done by pfBlockerNG. If this is the case, I don't see any rules generated that let the traffic pass.

                Adding an IP to the suppression list doesn't seems to let it pass.

                  The suppresion alias does not need to be referenced to a rule. Please read the description for "Suppression" in the General tab…

                  "Do not use the pfBlockerNGSuppress Alias in a Firewall Rule. This alias is used during the cron download process only."

                  There are more details on how to suppress, in the Alerts Tab, when you hover-over the Lists Column.

                    I read it  ;)

                    However the suppression only seems to happen when you do a force reload, not when you click on the suppress icon

                    IBlock_Badpeer       47283      47283      195706

                    This take a few minutes to get online suppression results  :-\

                      Check your pfBlockerNGSuppress alias and remove all of the single /32 addresses in 50.31.164.x and just use a single /24

                        Hello all, I have my rules now allowing and not blocking, as we should do, I just have one question. Should I add a default reject all to the end of my LAN interfaces? Since I only allow, the traffic that does not match my allow rules will be blocked by default by pfsense, making my browser (for example) wait for a timeout (for example blocked IP's). If I add a reject all to the end of my rules, the request on the browser will be a lot faster, returning a rejected error.

                        Thank you all

                            search near the bottom. There might be more lists out there.

                                those are domains, I have plenty of them :)
                                can those be blocked using DNSBL ?

                                    Is-it normal that during boot, Resolver start twice?

                                    I added Unbound under Service Watchdog and unbound start within 5 min of bootup.

                                      @Jamerson:

                                      can those be blocked using DNSBL ?

                                      Yes it can

                                      just post them on the block domain DNS feed ?

                                        Hey all!

                                        This is just what the doctor ordered! Thans BBcan177, great job!

                                        I have a dumb question. I was looking over the default settings and had a question about the below. If you're going to protect against spam, wouldn't you select "Inbound" as the default instead of "Outbound"? I want to prevent stuff from coming in to the network. I know I'm missing something here, just don't know what it is.

                                        DNSBL IP Firewall Rule Settings:
                                        Select Deny outbound or as per your requirements
                                        select Enable logging

                                        Thanks!

                                          All connections are initiated from inside to outside direction, so, you should block what starts the connection. Unless you have open ports from the internet to your network.

                                            Thanks for the replyl Hugovsky. But I'm still confused.

                                            My mail server is inside my network and is clean. It would seem to me you'd want to block what is coming in from the outside to the ports opened on the mail server, etc.

                                            Sorry, I can be dense at times.
