      Hello,
      I need format of pfBlockerNG-devel logs from folder /var/log/pfblockerng (dnsbl.log, ip_block.log,..).
      Does anybody know where is possible to find? I searched the web and didn't find them.
      Logs is almost fairly clear but I want to clarify!
      Thanks in advance!

        Those are normal text files, just take a look at their contents.

              @BBcan177 Does the "+" mean it is a new event and "-" means it is a duplicate event? I'm assuming that is the case based on my log file but wanted to confirm.
