      Good Morning

      I googlevideos.com lock on aliases , but need to put a wild card appears as multiple domain names to the right you can put * .googlevideo.com to block all sites down?

        You could do this by installing Squid/Squidguard and blocking the 'googlevideo.com' domain entirely.

        If you don't want to use Squid, then there's apparently a kludge of sorts which involves pasting in a line in the 'Advanced' section of the DNS forwarder (Services/DNS Forwarder + 'Advanced' button). The details are here: http://serverfault.com/questions/321563/how-can-i-setup-a-wilcard-dns-entry-on-pfsense

        Personally, I'd go the Squid route.

          I just set Unbound to override a DNS entry to 127.0.0.1 and when I query for it, I just get back a "could not find host". I've done this to several ad domains.
