      I had spent numeraous amount of time fixing my DNS resolver hanging due to some Pfblocker bug...
      I had to switch Pfblocker to unbound python mode and was finally successful. No more hangs and I could begin with work.

      After the latest upgrade my entire Pfblocker had been reset.... so clue why. Has this BS happened with anyone else?

        @eui Did you select die config option of pfBlocker, that it should keep the settings after an update/upgrade?

        Without it that's completely normal behavior for every package as a pfSense update triggers a reinstall of all packages and reinstall triggers an deinstallation first.

        Cheers
