      Hi there,

      I am trying to avoid pfblockerng-dev on my pfSense to restart my unbound resolver. I deactivated DNSBL in pfblockerng (I did not enable the DNSBL feature). My pfblockerng executes the CRON job at 6 am every morning and it always restarts unbound even tho it is not supposed to do that. Does anybody know how to prevent pfblockerng from restarting Unbound? Manually executing Update/CRON/Reload also causes Unbound to restart.

      Any help greatly appreciated!

      Cheers!

      Henry

          @ronpfs pfSense is running version 2.4.5. pfblockerng-dev is version 3.0.0_8. Which logs would you like to see?

          Cheers!

            @elmnts Maybe inspect pfblockerng.log, system / resolver / dhcp logs. If nothing obvious is found, then try :

            Enable DNSBL, save settings, disable DNSBL, Save settings, Force Update, Force Reload ALL. It shouldn't compile any DNSBL data. The wait for cron update to see what happens.

              @ronpfs Hi! Thanks for getting back. DHCP option „ Enable registration of DHCP client names in DNS“ is not set. I unchecked all settings in my DNSBL config. I disabled all DNSBL Groups.

              This is the log when force an update:

                @elmnts Now there shouldn't be anything about pfblockerNG in DNS Resolver / General Settings : Custom options

                Wait for next Cron Update to see if it restart unbound.

                  @ronpfs Yes, the entry „server:include: /var/unbound/pfb_dnsbl.*conf“ is not in the Unbound custom options anymore. I will wait till the CRON runs automatically and get back to you.

                  Thanks for your help!

                        @ronpfs Hi! The CRON job was executed automatically at 6 am this morning. Unfortunatly it restarted Unbound again. Do you have any other idea what might cause the problem?

                        I dont know if it makes a difference but I used the DNSBL feature for quiet some time. I just wanted to deactivate it because I dont want to use the DNSBL feature from pfblockerng anymore. I also want to use Unbounds cache. I also tried the the "Rresolver cache" feature (which is enabled by default but I still checked it). Unbound restarted und I checked the cache entries before manually execute the CRON job and after executing it. Cache entries which have been in the Unbound cache before were cleared after. So automatically reloading the cache after pfblockerng restarts Unbound doesnt seem to work either.

                              Jan 9 06:00:25 unbound 54051:0 info: start of service (unbound 1.10.1).

                              The restart of unbound at 06h00 was not triggered by the cron task at 19h15.

                              I presume you are using the new python mode, which means the the generic DNSBL file /var/unbound/pfb_dnsbl.conf" doesn't exist any more (present in the Resolver Custom option box).
                              Yes, unbound is restart - or reloading.
                              Keep in mind that the cache is dumped just before the restart, and loaded back in when started.
                              This leans : minimal overhead, as your restart time - and mine, takes just one second - without cache loses.

                              This is my reasoning :
                              Unbound loads at startup also the python module that does all the DNSBL (and other) work. This python modules uses the probably updated /var/unbound/pfb_py_*.txt files.
                              See it like this : if, during an cron update, unbound didn't needed to be restarted, it wouldn't get restarted ;)

                              No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
                              Edit : and where are the logs ??

                                @gertjan H! Thanks for your reply. I change the execution time of the cron job from 6:00 am to 7:15 pm (see my last post ... I mentioned it in there) so I get a "fresh" log output for my forum post. I am not using the Python Script.

                                Unbound ist restarting or reloading but it definitly does not dump the cache and reload it. I checked different cache entries before the cron job was executed and after it was executed.

                                unbound-control -c /var/unbound/unbound.conf dump_cache | grep heise
                                

                                heise.de is an IT website here in Germany and it was in the cache before the cron job was executed but it was not in the cache after it finished. The entry did not expire. I also checked with other entries and they were all gone after the cron job finished.

                                  @elmnts :

                                  I tested with the 'unbound' mode.
                                  Live sync was checked.
                                  DNSBL is activated :

                                  Force Update log :

                                  The XXXX lines are added by me, to see if all the conditions are met so a live sync is tried.
                                  It did, so no restart of unbound was needed.

                                  You do not use the DNSBL mode, like :

                                  53733ad8-033e-4b0b-8847-cd4dfad2ab89-image.png

                                  In that case, all I see when I 'force' a CRON update :

                                  CRON  PROCESS  START [ v3.0.0_8 ] [ 01/11/21 10:14:29 ]
                                  
                                   No Updates required.
                                  CRON  PROCESS  ENDED
                                  UPDATE PROCESS ENDED
                                  

                                  and unbound isn't restarted at all as pfBlockerNG doesn't work (care about) with host names so there s nothing to do for the resolver unbound - all blocking is IP based..

                                  What pfBlockerNG version are you using ?

                                  No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.

                                          Just a comment that I seem to have had much the same issue as the OP on this thread. I've been using pfblockerng-dev since last autumn upgrading as each new version comes out (I've been on the 2.4.5-p1 version of pfSense). Everything seemed to be working OK until relatively recently when I started having problems with my Roon (audio server) where internet radio streams would stop working at regular intervals. This turned out to correspond to the times when the cron job was running and unbound was being stopped and started. Examination of the Roon logs showed that it was getting a timeout. I tried using the python integration and while this reduced the time that unbound was "off" it didn't solve the problem. I also tried disabling the DNSBL part of pfblockerng but still found that unbound was being restarted on regular intervals.

                                          For the moment I have removed pfbockerng-dev completely. Interestingly, I needed to do a save on the DNS configuration settings to reset everything as there was something not quite right as "unbound-control" was no longer working. All is fine now with no unbound restarts, and it may be that some other odd networking artefacts that have appeared recently may be corrected.

                                          When I have time to experiment again, I will do a clean re-install of pfBlockerNG-dev, as I would like the added protection provided by it (although I only use a very restricted set of block lists, and at the moment with lockdown and only my partner and myself at home there is less risk of younger family members or visitors going places they shouldn't).

                                            @stepheng Hey! BBcan177 said he would include the patch in the next pfblockerng-dev Update. Maybe wait till version 3.0.0_9 is out. Or ask him if he can provide the patch to you if it is urgent!

                                            Cheers!

                                              @elmnts Yes, I'll certainly re-install when the next version appears, or soon after, probably on a day when I'm at home by myself, and I've got a few hours to do some testing without danger of upsetting my partner's television viewing or internet use!

                                              As I said, it isn't really urgent because I'm not running an environment where there is a particularly high risk of a user going somewhere they shouldn't or being hijacked, but it is nice to know the protection is there, particularly when life gets back to normal and we have visits from the younger family members who are all over social media!
