Title: Blocking ads using only unbound
Post by: azfirefighter on July 12, 2019, 11:36:01 pm
I managed to get ad blocking done using only Unbound.  Our command line friends, curl and awk do the heavy lifting.

This post is a little messy right now, but I'll get it cleaned up a little later.

HOUSEKEEPING INFO:
You will need to be able to log into the machine using either the console or SSH to get this accomplished.

The list I'm using is Steven Black's "Unified+Gambling+Fake News".  You can choose from any of his other lists at https://github.com/StevenBlack/hosts/blob/master/readme.md (https://github.com/StevenBlack/hosts/blob/master/readme.md).  Rather than using one of the "Raw Hosts" URLS, choose one of the "Non Github Mirror" URLS.  Curl seems to have an issue with the "Raw Hosts" URLS.

GETTING STARTED:

If you've opted to use a different filter list, you'll have to change the address that curl is using in the following script.

#!/bin/sh
#
# First, let's get the list

curl http://sbc.io/hosts/alternates/fakenews-gambling/hosts -o blockhosts.txt

# Too bad it's got a lot of stuff at the beginning we don't need.
# Time to remove the cruft

awk 'NR>=35{ print }' blockhosts.txt > hosts-fixed.txt

# Time to make it usable for the unbound service

echo -n "server:" > block.conf # MUST HAVE THIS AT THE TOP OF THE FILE

cat hosts-fixed.txt | grep '^0\.0\.0\.0' | awk '{ print "local-zone: \""$2"\" redirect\nlocal-data: \""$2" A 0.0.0.0\"" }' >> block.conf

# Present it to unbound
chown unbound:unbound block.conf
mv block.conf /var/unbound/block.conf
unbound-control -c /var/unbound/unbound.conf reload



Here's where you add the block list to Unbound.


Provided everything was entered correctly, the list should now be applied.

Since the "Cron" opnsense page doesn't allow for custom actions, you'll have to head back to the command line.
I've opted to update the list every night at 23:00 local.

If you're still logged in, keep going.  Otherwise, log back into the command line and choose option #8.

Then:

Your system should now update the list, mangle it into a format that Unbound can use and reload the list every night at 2300 (local).

I'm working on making a command line install script to make the process a little easier for inexperienced people.  Please be patient.

This is great, thanks for sharing! I was waiting for UnboundBL to materialize, but this will work nicely instead..

https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/how-tos/proxytransparent.html

With option to only log SNI, then you can use the blacklist feature in access control

Hello again...I tried this method and I was successful ...but still I need one help ...first of all tell me why we are using transperant proxy in this web filtering what is the role of that...means I am able to block the domain by web filter without use of transparent proxy...so what is the use of transparent proxy please tell me

Hello there  :)

first i'm sorry for my poor english it is not my native language and i'm better in reading it then writing  ::)

I'm using a similar solution and i'm writing here to show you the problems you can have with your script.
And i don't want create another DNS-Block thread.

Quote
unbound-control -c /var/unbound/unbound.conf reload
Is a very bad Solution ... it will fail if the list is to big

Then:

    Type crontab -e, press Enter and go to the end of the file (you may have to hit the "End" key on the last line)
    Press a
    Press ENTER
    Type: 0     23     *     *     *     (/usr/share/blocklist/getlist.sh) > /dev/null
    Press ESC, then : and finally wq!
It is maybe better to create a action-file in /usr/local/opnsense/service/conf/actions.d to configure cron via web-interface

I will now show the script iam currently using you have to install wget and bash via pkg to use it.
Feel free to edit it to your needs any hints to make the script better is very much appreciated.

To create the Whitelist-file:
Code: [Select]
echo '# Domains nach dieser Zeile einfuegen. Diese Zeile nichr loeschen!' > /root/whitelistIn the Whitelist-File you can add domains after the first line that shouldn't be blocked.

Create the action-File for cron in "/usr/local/opnsense/service/conf/actions.d"
Code: [Select]
ee /usr/local/opnsense/service/conf/actions.d/actions_AdBlock.confand insert
Code: [Select]

pkg unlock -y pkg

make the script executable:
Code: [Select]
chmod +x /root/adblockscript
run the script via
Code: [Select]
./adblockscript infoit shows how many domains are blocked and create the blockfile for unbound

I'm using the root folder as working environment i know it is kind of laziness  ::)
For the blacklist i am using: https://github.com/EnergizedProtection/block (https://github.com/EnergizedProtection/block)
Output-File is: /var/unbound/adblocklist.conf <= insert this path in your Unbound config

Thanks for your patience and maybe this help someone  ;D

Sinnce https://energized.pro started to publish Unbound-readable blocklists, we should simplify our tutorial to something like this:

1. add include: /var/unbound/ad-blacklist.conf into Custom options of Unbound
2. Create Ad-blacklist-refresh.sh in /var/unbound with:
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/EnergizedProtection/block/master/blu/formats/unbound.conf -o /var/unbound/ad-blacklist.conf

3. insert a regular execution of this script into crontab

There are multiple levels of compiled lists by energized.pro team - just pick the right strength, let Unbound use it and enjoy ad-free browsing.

Hello there  ;D

yes your are right you can do that but using a script has also his benefits.

and two personal reason

If you like it realy easy and wont do anything it is better use a addon for Opnsense like: https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=14116.0 (https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=14116.0)

Thanks Itow

if you do not add server: to the start of the first line of .conf file unbound will not start.

I only could start Unbound with that:
example:
Code: [Select]
server:local-zone: "0--ass-cinema-newsp.da.ru" static
local-zone: "0--bondage.dk" static
local-zone: "0--fightingshaving.da.ru" static
local-zone: "0--foodwarez.da.ru" static

Cheers and thanks for your work and scripts, Working like a charm.

Hi,

usually it is not nethethery to add anything to the created Blocklist.

Please check if you have add include: /var/unbound/adblocklist.conf in your Unbound configuration under Custom options in the Web interface. And try remove any addition to the custom options to check if Unbound will function normally without it.

-
I have added a check if the crucial line exist in the unbound config.
Also added checks if Custom Whitelist and Blacklist exist.
