      To increase security I have installed Pf Blocker Version 3.0.0_16 (Devel)

      I then deployed the DNSBL Categories 'Shalla Secure Services- Shallalist' & UT1 (Universite Tourouse 1 Capitole) . I selected groups :
      Porn,Ads ,Spyware ,Trackers ,Adult,Malware , Phising

      However there are still sites that are accessible and returning pages ( for example PornHub)

      I figured to enable TLD and to create a custom group list , which I did .

      Firewall>pfBlockerNG>DNSBL>DNSBL Groups >
      Info (Specified Generic Name description) , DNSBL source Definitions (Left blank)
      Settings
      Action- Unbound
      DNSBL Custom_List
      Added :
      'Pornhub.com'
      redtube.com
      instagram.com
      ea0f303c-0018-449b-bf47-602e649c1f97-image.png

      Websites are still accessable , what am I doing wrong ?
      Pf sense box is running 2.5.1

      Any help is appreciated

        I had found a workaround to this problem

        For whatever reason the Shalla-List weren't fully working, it would block http requests to cetain sites but not https . I followed another solution on another thread by adding another new external porn blacklist

        Not sure why the Shalla-list , or my custom entries didn't work though

          @90ninety If your looking to block adult domain names, you can also add one of the Chad Mayfield lists. They're under Firewall > pfBlockerNG > Feeds > Firebog_Other (all the way at the bottom of the feeds list). There are two you can choose from.
