I know that this thread is a little older now.
I utilized the php script that Dok presented.
Should I go through and delete the failed downloads or what?

I went through each one that failed, retried them, and disabled the ones that failed again,
Then I attempted to go to each site, and if the site was no longer in existence, then I deleted.
Answered my own question without getting yelled at! -

Answered my own question without getting yelled at!The script is a little dated. Some feeds have changed…. some down... so always best to open the site in a browser and check it out....
The next version of the package will have an automated Feeds Management Tab, which should make this process easier to manage.

+1 from me for that! This might be a cool rich Option for us all, to get taps named like Malware, Virus, ect.
and insert there the links or URLs to several lists and perhaps a little "+" button to create his own new tap!
Perhaps I mean ;) -

And now google is doing the same thing.

IBlock feeds are IP based… What your showing here is from DNSBL...
grep "dropbox" /var/db/pfblockerng/dnsbl/*If you have "dropbox.com" in the whitelist, that won't remove "www.dropbox.com"
Re-edit the DNSBL Whitelist and remove the dropbox entry, then use the Alerts Tab "+" whitelist icon to whitelist it again…. You can also whitelist all sub-domans if you wish... Follow the whitelist prompts. -
The firewall is now integrated into the home network.
iBlock lists have been disabled as this was causing too many https blocks.

I just installed pfBlockerNG and tried to configure pfBlockerNG, IPV4, and DNSBL using google searches. Needless to say, I followed some contradicting and outdated "tutorials". So I decided that I will start at the beginning of this thread and read the entire thread before I try to configure anything.
To revert my pfSense back to prior installing and configuring pfBlockerNG and all the other components (i.e. IPV4, DNBL), I uninstalled pfBlockerNG and deleted all the auto generated rules and aliases. Is there anything else I need to undo?

There are notes in the General tab on how to do that… Uncheck "Enable" and "Keep" then save... This will clear out all the downloaded files... Then re-enable both followed by a Force Update command....
If you want to start from complete scratch. Then Uncheck "Keep", save, uninstall the pkg. Then re-install it ...
Hope that helps!

Having a problem with GSN Gaming Casino on Facebook with pfblockerNG enabled on my server. Tried whitelisting everything I thought could be the cause but still not getting through. Has this been reported by anyone else and/or resolved? I did a fairly extensive search but didn't turn up anything useful (to me) about how to allow the traffic.

Issue with pfBlockerNG + Unbound + DNSBL when RAM Disk is enabled.
Unbound fails to start after system reboot with RAM Disk enabled.
User must force Update + Reload CRON for Unbound to successfully startup.The file '/var/unbound/pfb_dnsbl.conf' is removed upon system reboot with RAM Disk enabled thus forced CRON to regenerate file is the only way to get Unbound started again.
We need the option to move this file inside pfBlocker's settings OR an option to preserve this file (and other settings/caches within pfBlocker) across system reboots when RAM Disk is enabled.
Please as this currently requires manual user input every time the machine is rebooted to restore services!!

Hmmm, I'm using pfBNG, DNSBL, Unbound - Resolving, and RAM disks and I don't have to do any of that, not for a normal reboot, a hard shutdown, or a power outage.
I do have servicewatchdog monitoring Unbound, but that wouldn't Force Update & Reload.
I am using 2.4.0 BETA, possibly something has been changed there that allows this to work?

See the following open Redline: https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/6603
This can only be fixed in the pfSense Unbound code. -
@BlueKobold:
The next version of the package will have an automated Feeds Management Tab, which should make this process easier to manage.
Any update on progress on that? Just curious, it sounds to be a very nice addition…

I took some holiday time but hopefully in the next few weeks if all goes as plan.

I'm not sure if this is necessarily the best place to ask/report this, but in the process of attempting to reduce the maximum log file size below the current minimum of 5000 lines, I believe that I have discovered that this limit is only enforced every time the pfBlockerNG cron task executes. This determination was made experimentally as well as by taking a look at where pfb_log_mgmt is called in https://github.com/pfsense/FreeBSD-ports/blob/75dcc67f66100f7ef6bbf201c6562bdcb02c3177/net/pfSense-pkg-pfBlockerNG/files/usr/local/pkg/pfblockerng/pfblockerng.inc I don't claim to know the best approach to improving this, but if the cron job frequency is set to a relatively long interval and the network size is relatively large, it appears that the associated log files could easily grow well beyond their configured limits. I realize that it would be impractical to provide a hard guarantee that the log files will never exceed their configured sizes even for a brief time period, but I wonder whether it would be feasible to trim them every minute, for example, as opposed to it being tied to the main cron job interval. Or I could be totally off base here and missing or failing to understand something obvious, so if that's the case, apologies in advance :) Thanks to all the pfBlockerNG devs; it's a great package and very much appreciated.

@Mr.:
Some weird stuff ???
Hey Mr. J.
You are mixing some things up here :)
The pfBlockerNGSuppress alias does not need to be referenced to any Firewall Rules.
Suppression -
Suppression process occurs when Lists are downloaded from the Threat Sources.
When a List is downloaded, if the list contains 1.2.3.4/32 and the Suppress Alias has 1.2.3.4/32, then this IP is suppressed from the Blocklist.
If a list has 1.2.3.4/32 and the Suppress Alias has 1.2.3.0/24, then this IP is suppressed from the Blocklist.
If a list has 1.2.3.4/24 and the Suppress Alias has 1.2.3.4/32, then the Single 1.2.3.4/32 is suppressed, and all of the other IPs in this Range are added to the Blocklist.
When you click on the "+" icon in the Alerts tab, it will add the IP to the Suppress Alias, and also removes the IP from the Aliastable. However, the Suppressed IP is still in the Blocklist, and will be removed from the List at the Next Cron Update for the particular List. This will prevent these Suppressed IPs from being blocked.
Whitelisting -
When you whitelist, you are creating a new pfBNG alias and typically set it for "Permit Outbound". You can enter the Whitelisted IPs in the custom Box in the alias.
The best method is to suppress the IP above. But if you have a Block occuring from a CIDR under a /24, you can't suppress that (ie /20 etc…) To overcome that, you need to allow the IP "Permit Outbound" which will create a state in the pfSense State table that allows the return of that IP without being Blocked by the pfBNG Block/Reject rules. In the Alerts Tab, you can see the List that Blocked the IP, if no IP is shown below the List, then the Block occurred by a /32 Blocklist entry. If its blocked by a CIDR, it will show the IP and CIDR below the List. You then can decide if its a /24 to use Suppression, or use the Whitelist for other CIDR ranges.
Other questions -
The Permit Rules need to be above the Block/Reject rules. Ensure that in the Alias, you set "Logging" or enable Global logging in the General Tab which will enable Logging for all Aliases globally.
When you add a manual Rule, it can't have "pfB_" in the description, these will be removed by the Cron task each hour. To create "Alias" type rules, you need to enter the Description starting with "pfb_" (Lowercase)… This is explained in detail in the Alias "List Action" Section.
You cannot Use Domain names with pfBlockerNG currently. You will need to convert the domain into an IP and add that to a Custom list. In v2.0 I will also have Domain Name Blocking (DNSBL).
You can use a service like Hurricane Electric to collect IPs for Domain names that are changing more frequently and collect the list with the "html" format.

Hello friends, i love this package but i have one question or one suggestion to add
I see in the queues of my mail server, mails in queue because can not connect to ip x.x.x.x , i not view this ip in country list ipv4 denegated, but maybe is in my personal ipv4 lists (dshield, etc..) and the question is:
How can i check if one ip is denegated in pfblockerng ??? there's no search ip engine ???

pfBlockerNG has an issue in the new 2.4.0 and 2.4.1 version of Pfsense, It has updated to BSD 11.1 from 11.0 and now if you have pfBlockerNG installed it will "Eventually" Lock up the whole kernal with a 502 Bad Gateway error. Here is a connected thread on this issue.
