    Hi

    I'm having troubles using a custom DNSBL group list.
    I wanted to include these lists in a custom group: vpn_ip

    However, I cannot make it work.

    First of all, when using the URL's I get an error when reloading DNSBL config: pfblocker xn--cant-x96a . I suppose the format of the txt is not right.

    Therefore I wrote a script to change the format to (example):
    ||03ast.openips.cc^

    This throws no error, but despite the document has thousands of lines, the reload only says it has 9 entries. (9 orig.)

    Other groups like easylist seems to work fine.

    Does anyone has a clue what's going wrong?

    Kind regards, Jen

      Update: now I'm getting the error:
      No Domains Found! Ensure only domain based Feeds are used for DNSBL!

        @SJKS said in Custom DNSBL group list errors:

        custom group: vpn_ip

        Group ?
        I see 3 files that look like valid lists.
        The first one, adguard.txt with a line format like

        ||cdnexpress.art^
        ||openips.cc^
        ||pointed.cc^
        ||rounds.cc^
        ||should-licence.cc^
        ...
        

        doesn't seem right. I said seem, as I, as a human, don't parse files ^^
        So yes, your right, it should be pre parsed.

        Only that "adguard.txt" has an issue ? All 3 of them ?

        ip.txt is an IP list, not a DNSBL list.

        edit :
        What is the URL you use to download the hostname.txt file ?
        This one - the raw one - works for me :
        https://raw.githubusercontent.com/az0/vpn_ip/refs/heads/main/data/output/hostname.txt
        any other URL probably downlaod the web page and yeah, taht will fail.
        Check here : /var/db/pfblockerng/dnsblorig/* where you can see what pfBlockerng actually downloaded.

        The green marked lines are the IP and DNSBL list. The loaded just fine.

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