Upgrade to pfBlockerNG 2.1.4_20 - Block Rules Gone?

[provels]

@nfld_republic Yes, a restore should work.

[nfld_republic]

@NollipfSense That was checked...

[nfld_republic]

@provels - Restore did not work. Seems like all the alises are gone.

[NollipfSense]

@nfld_republic Wow...seems you have an issue...are you using pfBlockerNG-Dev? If not, that's the solution...v2.2.5_28!

[nfld_republic]

@NollipfSense - Nope, release streams:
pfSense 2.4.4-RELEASE-p3 (amd64)
pfBlockerNG 2.1.4_20

Weird...

[nfld_republic]

Does anyone have the AWS EC2 IP list URL?

[NollipfSense]

@nfld_republic So, the pfBlockerNG 2.1.4.20...is that the Dev? I don't remember what I had before I upgraded to pfSense 2.5-Dev; however, your issue is weird indeed, as I have never had a situation that a restore from a backup didn't resolve nor a complete removal of pBlockerNG and a reinstall didn't restore all settings. So, your pfSense configurations are messed up.

[provels]

There are no references to pfBlocker in the config.xml you are restoring?

@nfld_republic Nothing like <pfblockerngdnsbl> or <pfblockernglistsv4>?
Those contain all my URLS.
Might be <pfblockerdnsbl> or <pfblockerlistsv4> for you since you're not running NG, but I can't be sure.

[nfld_republic]

@provels - Hi, I am running pfBlockerNG (v. 2.1.4_20).

I don't use DNSBL, just the IPs. I started readding the blocklist IPs (e.g., BinaryDefense, EmergingThreats, firehol Level 1 to 3) and they now work.
