IPv4 update frequency

eric45

pfsense version: 2.4.4-RELEASE-p2
pfBlockerNG version: 2.1.4_16

Hi,

I've noticed that any IPv4 lists that I have with an update frequency set in hours (ie: hourly, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12) always update every 1 hour (assuming the time-stamp has changed) instead of the actual hourly setting. Lists set to update daily or weekly update exactly when they should.

The 'General settings / CRON Settings' is set for 'Every hour'.

I'm running pfsense with pfBlockerNG on a dedicated hardware box. I've also tried this in a VirtualBox VM with the same issue.

Have I missed a setting somewhere?

Thanks in advance

I would suggest moving to pfBlockerNG-devel... I'm not actively updating the older version unless there are critical issues. Once you install it, you won't want to go back to the older version anyways. :)

If the problem still exists after that, let me know.

pfsense: 2.4.4-RELEASE-p2 (amd64)
pfBlockerNG-devel: 2.2.5_22

Hi,

I've just built a new VirtualBox VM (FreeBSD-64), installed pfsense & pfBlockerNG-devel.

I have 3 IPv4 lists - one set to update every hour, the other two set to update every 4 hours.

As before, all the lists update every 1 hour - this can be seen in the update log.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Eric
