Hello, thanks for all your work on this. I just wanted to report that I'm seeing the following in system -> pkg manager -> installed, even after reinstalling the package.

Yes. And the point of the report is exactly what?

Please review the linked image. There are two points :

1. "Package is configured but not (fully) installed" (even after reinstallation)
2. "Newer version available" (without the update option)

That is the Legend for the Package Manager ::)

So now look a the pfBlockerNG line and interpreting the legend the status of the package is "Current"

Ah, my bad! The lack of a separator there as opposed to the ones above it is a bit confusing ( http://imgur.com/a/lwSFx ).

Yeah I tried and that looked even worse than now. Leaving this to someone else.

Hello,

Regarding Adaway,

https://adaway.org/hosts.txt

Although the list is downloaded:

[ Adaway ] Downloading update .. 200 OK. completed ..

I got this error:

[ pfB_Adaway Adaway ] List Error ]

Please advise

BBcan177

I assume that Adaway is also the name of the Alias?

Do you have anything in the custom list at the bottom of this alias? I think that's the part that's not parsing properly. Anything in a custom list must be formatted properly.

The name of the alias is Adaway, and I don't have anything in the custom list.

I've changed the name of the alias, and the label like this:

Adaway_list ] Downloading update .. 200 OK. completed ..
[ pfB_Adaway1 Adaway_list ] List Error ]

It looks like you added this list to the IPv4 tab when it's a domain based list and should only be used in the DNSBL tab.

I removed it from IPV4, sorry to bother you with this.

Thank you

@BBcan177:

Here are more DNSBL Feeds that can be used in pfBlockerNG.
(Copy and paste URLS as plain text)

Create a new alias for these.
These are not necessarily ADvert domains. So I named mine "Malicious"

malc0de
https://malc0de.com/bl/BOOT

I get this error for malc0de. all other lists are fine

[ DNSBL_Malicious - malc0de ] Download FAIL [ 02/21/17 01:21:47 ]
Firewall and/or IDS are not blocking download.

Set up exactly the way you have described.

I'm on 2.3.3 RC

Not having any issues with that feed… Try to

ping malc0de.com

and see if it responds… Check the Alerts Tab to see if any alerts get reported... Could be Snort/Suricata, or another Firewall rule....

Hey BBCAN,
Is there a way to get Reek's anti-adblocking list to work under Pfblocker? This would be extremely convenient.

My apologies if this has been asked a trillion times before….

Unfortunately not. DNSBL can't manipulate the browser except for sinkholing the DNS request.

Does anyone have a good list for blocking porn sites please?b

I have google and searched and cant find any.

@D0X:

Thanks for your support so far, but for now I've given up on pfblockerng. Not that the package is flawed, but Safari on OSX and IOS is driving me nuts.

NP…. Should you decide to pick it backup at some point, try to see why the Ping/Browse to the DNSBL VIP wasn't working. That will cause issues on its own.... also since it was one Domain that was predominantly causing issues, you could also Whitelist it...

Quoting this old post, but the problem is still occurring. Tried PfblockerNG again this morning, but all Apple devices still bombards me with certificate errors.
