      @stephenw10 Thank you for taking time to answer me again! But as I wrote earlier I already tried that, I think the problem is the include line as when I sshed into the pfsense box there are no files matching what the include line is trying to include. Has something changed (running latest version) and the information is obsolete?

      I've read quite a few threads about this but most of them uses the same include...

        @stephenw10 said in Can pfSense do this better than a Edgerouter:

        /var/unbound/pfb_dnsbl.*conf

        If you have pfBlocker with DNS-BL enabled that file should absolutely exist.

        [21.09-DEVELOPMENT][admin@6100.stevew.lan]/root: ls -ls /var/unbound/pfb_dnsbl.*conf
        3968 -rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  4019424 Aug 16 19:24 /var/unbound/pfb_dnsbl.conf
        

        pfBlocker itself adds that custom line to the Unbound config.

        Steve

          @stephenw10 Interesting, must take a closer look... I'm not sure if I checked before or after I disabled it (as it affected the whole network). But I am sure that the custom options box (under Unbound) was empty when it was running. I saw posts that said that it should have the include line (under custom options) when running...

          Thanks again!

            @stephenw10 Found the problem, I was using Unbound python mode. Now it only blocks in the 101 vlan. Time to continue experimenting with pfblocker. Thanks again!
