Problem with pfBlockerNG List - How can I fix it? [SOLVED]
- 
 There appears to be an issue with these two lists: http://hosts-file.net/exp.txt 
 http://hosts-file.net/hjk.txtthat appear on firehol_level1 that are causing problems: **[ hphosts_exp ] Downloading update .. 200 OK. completed .. 
 [ pfB_Level_1 hphosts_exp ] List Error ][ hphosts_hjk ] Downloading update [ 01/19/17 13:08:31 ] .. 200 OK. completed .. 
 [ pfB_Level_1 hphosts_hjk ] List Error ]**I am assuming that the "converted lists" should be stored in /var/db/pfblockerng/deny , and there is no file corresponding to hphosts exp/hjk. How do I find out what is causing the problem, and more importantly fix it/remove the offending line so that I can use the rest of the list. In case anyone wants to see it, the full log is below: UPDATE PROCESS START [ 01/19/17 13:08:26 ] Clearing all DNSBL Feeds... ** DNSBL Disabled ** ===[ Continent Process ]============================================ ===[ IPv4 Process ]================================================= [ hphosts_psh ] exists.

 These 2 lists are to be used with DNSBL. 
- 
 And there is also a combined DNSBL feed from hpHosts: http://hosts-file.net/download/hosts.zip 
- 
 OK, I get it now. I thought that pfB was doing a reverse DNS on those names, but now that you tell me that… So is it correct to assume that I can import any "hosts" file into the DNSBL? 
- 
 Firehol is converting those Domain based lists into an IP format… I'd not recommend that... The pfBlockerNG package has an IP and a Domain section.... so best to use the applicable format (IP or DNSBL)... Yes hpHosts has individual Feeds, or the combined feed linked above... Take a look at their website for further details.
