Title: DNSBL cron job
Post by: hushcoden on July 31, 2021, 12:36:24 am

Trying to add a cron job to update the Unbound blocklists in System-->Settings-->Cron but it's not in the drop-down menu, how possible?

"Update Unbound DNSBLs", at least on my install the last item in the list.

How do I troubleshoot Unbound that every now and then it restarts (see screenshot) ?

Also, as for the cron job attached, can someone confirm it means Unbound DNSBLs are updating every day at 06:00 ?

I found unbound sometimes does restart on link up/down events, and perhaps also on DHCP renewal. Do these times coincide with other messages in the logs?

DNSBL on 21.7 uses a full stop / start. I'm not sure Unbound will log this as "Restarting".
