PfBlocker
-
hankjrfan00,
It's related to ip-blocklist package.
If you had removed it, maybe you need to delete this remaining script.'/usr/local/pkg/pf/IP-Blocklist.sh start'
Also look for ipblocklist scripts in /usr/local/etc/rc.d
Thanks! Removing '/usr/local/pkg/pf/IP-Blocklist.sh' seems to have fixed the problem!

Ran into problems today, rules were not applied correctly … anyhow.
I removed pfblocker for my test, but the tables were still there.
The widget was also complaining
I removed /var/db/aliastables/pfBblocker* but I can still see them in Diagnositic: Table !How to remove them?
So I reinstalled pfBlocker, create a table with the same name, with no list, nothing happenned.
I added a list, the table was recreated ... fine ;o)
I I renamed it to the second table, table is renamed ok.
Now I delete the table ... nothing happens, table still present
I disabled pfBlocker, all the tables were gone :D
I enabled pfBlocker, the old tables were finaly gone.So I created another table, I deleted it but the table remain available until your click Save in Firewall: pfBlocker: General
Do we need a Save or Apply changes button under Firewall: pfBlocker: Lists? -
How/where could I apply a pfBlocker list to filter inbound traffic on a NAT-PMP port created by miniupnpd?

Try first on floating rules and go testing access with tcpdump on console.

Found a few good pfBlocker compatible blocklists:
I am specifically worried about Malware.

Thanks for your contribution.
Do you know how often its Updated?
-
I don't know how often the advertising blacklist is updated, it doesn't seem to be very effective. I'm the "cup half full" type of person so I block those IP's anyways.
As to the known malware IP's, I believe from looking at the commented-out time stamp within the files they look to be updated daily.

Can somebody please tell me why PFblocker widget isn't showing all my block lists as being blocked?
Specifically the Russian Business Network Malverisers IP list is working however their CI Army list is not…. but the IP lists are of the same structure.
Working: http://rules.emergingthreats.net/blockrules/rbn-malvertisers-ips.txt
Not working or showing on Pfblocker widget: http://www.ciarmy.com/list/ci-badguys.txt
Please help!

Check first in diagnostics tables if this list was filled up.
Then check rule description for this alias rule.

Can you please explain this in further detail? I don't see alias rules for these lists, shouldn't they have been automatically made?

The pfBlocker is great! It's easy to use and very effective! Thank you!
I have 2 dumb questions.

Again, great work!

I am getting this in the System Log. Any ideas?

While one could go to do this manually (especially if you had country block before), it makes more sense to remove the scripts and files it creates there so a reinstall will keep this type of thing from happening.
If not a BIG FAT STICKY that tells people what they need to do would probably keep these types of messages from having to be posted.
Essentially, manually remove:
/usr/local/www/packages/pfblock* and the other two related directories, especially the one with the startup script. It doesn't unintall cleanly or reinstall cleanly.

Create a new list, choose action allow inbound and paste your networks in custom list.
-
So you're saying my new list will over ride the other lists by default?
Also, what format to I put the IPs in? Is it listed as below?
213.238.8.10/32
Sorry to be so stupid on this.
Thanks!
-
whitelist(allow) rules are applied before blacklists(deny).
the custom list is in CIDR format, so if its only one ip address 213.238.8.10/32 is fine.

Thank you!

Awesome. Thank you.

I'd like to begin by saying thank you for pfblocker and what all of you do to make this project a success. The post I'm about to write is intended for communicating how pfblocker could be improved, but if not read in the proper mindset may come off as me being critical of pfblocker so I want to make my intentions clear up front.
I am not currently using pfblocker for a couple of reasons, the primary reason is it seems to make establishing new connections incredibly slow. This is most easily noticed when browsing from one domain to another, in my configuration anyway it causes an immense connection time but once the connection is established it seems to do ok-ish.
This may not necessarily be the fault of pfblocker as it does take system resources to run such a package gracefully, so I believe perhaps a chart or even a dynamically calculated value on the pfblocker page would help tremendously. For example, I'm not sure if pfblocker is processor hungry or memory hungry, but it could compare for instance available ram with amount of rule entries and give the user an idea of the performance they should be getting with their rules. If they have gone over the limit for their system, the user then can either deal with it, remove some rules, or remove other system resource intensive package or setting. This would make diagnosing these types issues much easier.
Another suggestion I have for pfblocker would be to have the option to dynamically increase the number of firewall entries to the amount of rules for the lists the user has selected + however many for their personal needs. For example, a checkbox "Automatically Increase Firewall Maximum Table Entries", then a box to enter how many above the amount of rules for personal firewall rules, possibly with a default of 10000 which should be sufficient for most everyone.
That's all for now… hope these recommendations are fresh and I'm not just "yet another griper" lol. I didn't see anyone suggesting this but there are many places to look.
