Upgrade pfBlockerNG to pfBlockerNG-devel
-
I have read posts that state that upgrading pfBlockerNG to pfBlockerNG-devel has been covered, but I cannot find the answer. A pointer would be appreciated.
For this process, I would like to know whether I can use my current pfBlockerNG configuration or whether I need to start from scratch.
Thank you.

@revengineer It should just import during the install...uninstall the old one (default is to not delete the config) and install -devel. We don't use the DNSBL, just feeds, but we converted all clients to -devel early 2020 and had no issues. We had to convert because we couldn't get the MaxMind GeoIP to stay in the config on the old one (it disappeared overnight).

@steveits Thank you, this worked well. I had to modify the aliases for the deny lists but this is a small effort compared to starting over.

Ah, sorry, I had forgotten that. Yes we had to do that also.
