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 
 No Domains Found
Same here

@ntct:

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

Did you do a Force Reload after changing the list ?

I'm on 2.1.1_2, the h3x fix is included, but I get the same error as above.

I tried with Update, Cron , Reload.

Hi,

Each URL contains sites that were active in the last period (month, week, day or hour).

If you look at the 1hour or the 1day csv file, they only have one comment. The 1week and 1month have entries.

You should only choose one of the feeds according to your need. I guess most will pick the 1month URL.

Not sure if this is related to pfblockerNG (2.1 w/ TLD) but I went to the package manager to install a package, and saw that my copy of pfblockerNG was outdated, so I clicked the yellow round arrow to update the package. It went well, but immediately after I returned to the package manager I was greeted with a red ribbon saying "Unable to retrieve package information". This happens for the "Installed Packages as well as "Available Packages" tabs!

On the main page, I see "Obtaining update status ", then it turns to "Unable to check for updates".

Tried disabling both pfblockerNG and DNSBL to no avail. Snort is disabled and the blocked hosts list is empty.

Now I cannot update, install or uninstall packages…. How do I remedy to this?

I've had that trouble before too. It happened when I was trying to change from the development thread for updates to the stable thread. I couldn't update anything. I eventually found some instructions to reinstall the main pfsense components from the command line. I ended up still on the development thread and didn't venture to try to change it back after that.

Not sure I understand that. I am not playing with development stuff, nor that I am configured to retrieve packages from development repos.. Just a vanilla pfsense install with pfblockerNG, snort and thats it. Not normal all of a sudden I lose connection to repos..

Also after a reboot I see these warnings in the main page:

There were error(s) loading the rules: /tmp/rules.debug:37: cannot define table pfB_Europe_v6: Cannot allocate memory - The line in question reads [37]: table <pfB_Europe_v6> persist file "/var/db/aliastables/pfB_Europe_v6.txt" @ 2016-07-31 14:55:00

These all seem to be related to the MaxMind IPv6 database. Looks like you will need to bump the pfSense max aliastable entries limit from 2M to 4M. If you enable aggregation in the general tab, it should condense the CIDRs and reduce the overall IP count. This changed due to using the new MaxMind Geolite2 database which seems to have smaller subsets of the data listed causing more IP entries to be added.

I am away for a few weeks but will check that out. Seems like some regression somewhere. Thanks for reporting.

From the following thread:

https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=116019.0

I followed the ssh command line execution steps:

pkg update -f
pkg upgrade -f

and the same problem was resolved.

Hi, No problem. Have a nice Holiday :)

Hi there I followed this guide, http://fredmerc.com/2016/07/15/pfsense-adblock-using-pfblockerng-guide/ a rather short setup, there is only DNSBL and no IP4 is that new or is this guide missing it? Thanks for any help.

Which Spamhaus URL are you using ?
this https://www.spamhaus.org/statistics/tlds/ is just a web page, not a feed DNSBL can use.

as for the H3X, only one is needed
https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=115357.msg643896#msg643896

And do a Force Reload after making the modifications.

Thank you.
i see my mistake now.
I was certain I had 2 feeds that contained data but I must have misplaced it?

RonpfS

Read the first posts (or more ;)) of each of these threads:
pfBlockerNG
pfBlockerNG v2.0 w/DNSBL
pfBlockerNG v2.1 w/TLD

You will find some posts about IP and DNSBL Feed.

First of all thank you very much for your hard work and this awesome package!

I was just wondering is it possible to somehow change the Rule Order setting to something like:
pfB_Pass/Match | pfB_Block/Reject | All other Rules | (original format)
so the first IP-list would be the whitelist?

Right now I can't seem to figure out how to make custom LAN IPv4 whitelist (Permit_Outbound) rule to be the first in the rule list of the LAN interface. If I manually move it first. Next list update puts it bellow the blocklists (Deny_Outbound) again. Right now only the default setting | pfB_Block/Reject | All other Rules | (Original format) is partly usable for me (whitelist won't work) and all other rule order settings just mess my original LAN rules.

I use Traffic Shaper queues in the floating rules so prefer not to move pfBlockerNG's rules in there too.

Is this somehow possible or what am I missing, thanks?

RonpfS

Which version are you using ?

with pfBlockerNG 2.1.1_2 I have these choices.

And you can still use the Floating Rules, it won't affect the Traffic Shaper rules.

The https://www.spamhaus.org/statistics/tlds/ page can be useful to find TLD to put in the TLD Blacklist.

Check what is selected in this tab, as i had a similar problem and found since the update that the inverse of what i had previously selected had been selected causing over 1.5M IP's for this section and using up all the available memory.
