        Very nice addition, chapeau 8)

            Is this available to install now?  I am only showing version 2.0.17 for update.  I uninstalled hoping maybe I would then see the updated version but it's still not there.

            As a matter of fact, it says "Not Ready" in the update window when trying to install or update it now.  I now do not have it installed and am not able to install it but my system says it is installed.

            It actually did install but only to version 2.0.17.  Is that right?

                The latest version of pfBlockerNG  v2.1.1_1  has been reviewed and merged into pfSense 2.3.3 Dev. If your on the 2.3.3 Snapshots, its available to be installed now.

                I believe that the Devs will merge it for pfSense 2.3.2 shortly, so stay tuned for the update.

                If you have any questions or Feedback, please let me know….

                Please Read the instructions in the DNSBL tab for the new TLD feature before enabling it.
                Once enabled, follow that with a "Force Reload - DNSBL".

                Review any MaxMind GeoIP settings, since there have been significant changes with the upgrade to GeoLite2.

                Note: If you have less than 5GB of RAM and you have added the Bambenek DGA DNSBL Feed, please move that to the last entry in the DNSBL Feeds. Since that feed is quite large (700k+ Domains), its best to allow TLD to process the other Feeds first before hitting the max TLD Domain limit.  (http://osint.bambenekconsulting.com/feeds/dga-feed.gz).

                    THANKS! Can't wait! Good stuff….great work...and thanks for helping us dumb dumbs  :P here and over at Reddit!

                    PS - is there a quick n dirty way to test PFBNG to be sure you've generally set it up correctly? Like going to a website and not seeing ads, etc.?

                        Thanks… Are you on the latest 2.1.1_1 version?  Haven't heard much feedback yet, so not sure if many have installed it yet...

                        Not sure what sites are the worst for ADs... but yahoo is probably up there....

                          I'm still on 2.0.17. I've slowed down my updating a bit since I've had some snags and had to rebuild 3 times in the past 7 weeks. Two were my fault…lol I thought I had router plugged into the battery port on the UPS but didn't...storm hit...lost power...pf went corrupt. Sooooooooo, I'm a bit worn out on tampering right now. lol That said, I'll probably upgrade it this weekend.

                          Yahoo it is then. I'm very new to pfBNG so I need to learn it and get comfortable. I don't want to get  too aggressive. I just want it to serve as a companion for my Firefox plugins and to help keep my girlfriend protected.

                            pfBlockerNG-2.1.1_1 is working like charm, On 2.3.3-DEVELOPMENT (amd64) no issues.

                            TLD Blacklist is really handy, Thanks BBcan177

                                Hi BBcan177,

                                I can't update h3x feed from available feeds list in pfBlockerNG v2.1.

                                It show below.

                                [ h3x ]			 Downloading update .. 200 OK
                                 Remote timestamp missing

                                And I can't let TLD Exclusion List working. Can you give a example or check it works?

                                      Here is a patch to fix the H3X Feed…  Sorry about that  ...

                                      @BBcan177:

                                      Here are the links for Malware Corpus Tracker which can be used w/ pfBlockerNG DNSBL:

                                      UPDATE:

                                      Guess the internal QA testing didn't work too well when I tested this Feed.
                                      Please follow these instructions below to patch the code to get the following feed to parse:

                                      Edit     /usr/local/pkg/pfblockerng/pfblockerng.inc

                                      Goto Line 3368 which contains the following:

                                      $h3x_feed = TRUE;
                                      

                                      Reference:
                                      https://github.com/pfsense/FreeBSD-ports/blob/devel/net/pfSense-pkg-pfBlockerNG/files/usr/local/pkg/pfblockerng/pfblockerng.inc#L3368

                                      and add the following line after line 3368:

                                      $liteparser = TRUE;
                                      

                                      Then follow that with a    "Force Update"

                                        And I can't let TLD Exclusion List working. Can you give a example or check it works?

                                        Can you provide more detail about what you're trying to accomplish?

                                          Works for me.

                                          For the lazy:

                                          vi +3368 /usr/local/pkg/pfblockerng/pfblockerng.inc
                                          

                                          to go straight to the line.

                                          Thanks BBcan

                                            I have posted a PR #164 to fix the H3x parser issue noted above.
                                            ‎https://github.com/pfsense/FreeBSD-ports/pull/164‎

                                            Once this is merged the pkg will be at version 2.1.1_2.

                                            If you manually edited the file noted above, or not, you do not need to make any further changes with this version.
