Title: Unbound Whitelisting not working
Post by: PotatoCarl on February 14, 2024, 09:21:15 am

Hi
I recently have discovered blacklisting with unbound (yes, yes, I am slow sometimes), and now want to WHITELIST some pages, e.g. web.whatsapp.com
However, the whitelisting does not work at all

- *.whatsapp.com (despite the help below that field) is not accepted, according to protocol "invalid"
- (.*)?(\.)?whatsapp.com is accepted

However, none of them allow access to web.whatsapp.com

It seems as the Whitelisting is broken? I am on the current 24.1 version with todays updates (OPNsense 24.1.1-amd64).

Maybe it just took a veeeery long time (>30 min) to reload unbound... now it works.

Yes, it takes ages depending on configuration and number/size of blocklists, as can be seen in the logs.
