      Unbound no longer likes my host overrides.  I posted the issue in the DHCP and DNS forum here:  https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=148213.0

      But this question if related to pfBlockerNG and may be better asked in the pfBlockerNG forum.  In DNS Resolver, Custom Configuration, I have the entry

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

      This post https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=134675.msg738333#msg738333 says the server: entry is no longer required, as well as removing the *.

      The post suggests this entry:

      
      include: /var/unbound/pfb_dnsbl.conf
      
      

      If I try to change the entry per the post, the web gui hangs and I have to reboot to regain access.  How to the rest of you have this configured?

      Thanks.

        Hopefully, this helps, I followed this tutorial (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QwFpMwXEK5w&t=1121s) and I have no issues using pfblockerNG and unbound.

          I subscribe to that channel! I appreciate the knowledge he shares. I did watch it again. He does not cover the Unbound setting for pfBlockerNG. I need to go back to my notes to determine where I got this setting from. I left the setting as is for now.

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

              Thank you. The format with the .*conf is correct.
