      I have pfBlocker loading a list from the following url:
      http://www.dnsbl.manitu.net/download/nixspam-ip.dump.gz

      I decompressed the .gz to look at it and found text in the following format:

      2013-01-21T20:15+0100 78.39.223.180
2013-01-21T20:15+0100 49.202.135.218
2013-01-21T20:15+0100 213.108.75.31
...

      I have 2 systems that handle this list fine.
      One other system scrambles the file content - loads nonsense IPs the table - is why I peeked inside the .gz

      The thing is, I thought pfBlocker had to have the IP addr/cidrs at the beginning of the line.  Looks like I'm wrong.

      In what format(s) does pfBlocker need it's IP data?

        It loks for ip addresses using preg_match, if you can edit it to remove ip date, it may help.

          The list loads fine on two systems; now I know why.

          The system that scrambles the data has 27 lists loaded.
          It's probably just reacting to all the abuse I heap upon it.

          As always, thank you for your insight.

            The real main issue is even on last update 2.1-BETA1 (today), pfblocker still doesn't comes up as ENABLED.

            Everytime after update I need to go there and manually enable myself.  ::)

              Pfblocker uninstall script will always disable the service to avoid aliases/rules issues.

              It's a feature, not an issue  ;)

                Hi, I added support to insert portlist file. this way peoples can customize installations with pre defined rules from their web sites.

                you can deploy port list file with adding #PORT_LIST_PF text to begin of file.

                i hope you will include this changes to next release and it will helpful to others.

                example port list file: safeports.txt

                
#PORT_LIST_PF
21#ftp
22#ssh
25#smtp
53#dns
67#dhcp
80#http
110#pop
443#https
587#new smtp
1433#sql server
3306#mysql
3389#rdp

                replace bellow code in your /usr/local/pkg/pfblocker.inc

                add this function to after pfblocker_Range2CIDR function

                
function pfblocker_Range2Ports($port_min, $port_max) {
	#function called without any args
	if ($port_min == "" || $port_max == "")
		return "";
	#function called with same ip in min and max
	if ($port_min == $port_max)
		return $port_min;
	$bas=intval($port_min);
	$start_port+=1;//skip first value because its already processed
	$res="";
	$end_port=intval($port_max);
	for($i=$start_port;$i<=$end_port;$i++) {
		$res.="$i\n";
	}
	if($res!="") 
		return $res;
}

                  So that way Pfblocker only works on specified ports and not on all??

                    No, not like that,

                    this way you can add port alias to firewall or just block ports

                      On current version, you can use alias only option and create your own rules using, port aliases, connection limit, limiter, etc, etc ,etc.

                        thanks for the great package.  have been playing around with it for a couple months now, but just realized something a little odd.  i have a few iblocklist and linuxtracker lists, but i've never seen them update (at least the system log doesn't say so).  anyone else have the same issue?  i know the iblocklist lists are updated weekly at least and linuxtracker used to update his twice a week.  any help would be much appreciated.

                          What update frequency did you applied to this list?

                          Can you install cron package and check if pfblocker schedules are there?

                            the lists (alias only, with corresponding firewall rules) are set to update every day.  there seem to be two jobs in cron that relate to this:

                            0  *  *  *  *  root  /usr/local/bin/php -q /usr/local/www/pfblocker.php cron
                            30  12  *  *  0,2,4  root  /usr/bin/nice -n20 /etc/rc.update_urltables

                            and here are snippets of the logs that relate to those jobs:

                            Feb 17 12:30:53 php: : /etc/rc.update_urltables: pfBlockerlevel1 does not need updated.

                            Feb 16 23:00:01 php: : Starting pfBlocker sync process.

                            the update_urltables job has never said that a list was updated.  and the pfblocker sync has only repeated those four lines every day.

                            thanks.

                              Hi

                              I have added the package "Ads" and want to block it, but on this site: http://www.hardwareluxx.de/community/forum.php for example i can see the ads.

                              Is there a mistake by me, or anythign else?

                                why does pfBlocker set it's rules in LAN instead of WAN? or is it just me? I'm asking because the Ip's that i want to block still connect to my pfSense machine and i want to stop that.

                                  pfSense put the rules only into LAN when you choose "deny both" by "List action" in pfBlocker i think.

                                        Hi there,

                                        I think I've an issue with pfBlocker, when used with a IPv6 tunnel and a DHCP IPv4 WAN address:

                                        http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,60146.0.html

                                        Could anyone please offer any thoughts on this?

                                        Many thanks,

                                        Simon

                                          one of linuxtracker's lists (alias only, with corresponding firewall rules) is set to update every day.

                                          i ran a few tests with dropbox and some random ip addresses.  pfblocker doesnt seem to be updating after it initially pulls the ip's from the list.  any ideas?  thanks.

                                            IIRC, there is a pfblocker php script for list update running on cron if you define a update schedule.
