18.1 Legacy Series / /etc/hosts

Is there a simple way to append the host file with a block list?  I want to add to host file a block list from a url of someonewhocares.org/hosts/

Every time I reboot I haft to go back in and redo the host file.  Before I go and break OpnSense to force the host file is there a way to load all these sites into OpnSense with just one simple command?

Do I have to redo the startup scrips to pull the file and then combine it with the system host file and make a new host file and replace the system host file then let OpnSense come up!  Is that the only option?

Anyone have IPV6 stop working after the upgrade reboot?  On reboot IPV6 works but then a few mins later it stops working.  Just wondering if anyone else is having this problem??

Just wondering if this is already built into opnsense.  Lets say you have the lan dns server handing out local ip to 192.168.1.x network for dhcp clients.  In that dhcp block everything is dynamic.  Outside of that block lets say 50-100 is dynamic and 101-200 is static address.

Lets say we have a system with 192.168.1.150 call abc.xyz.com and that system goes down.  Is their a way with opnsense to update the ip address of abc.xyz.com to 192.168.1.175???  Outside no one would know about abc.xyz.com because it is not on the public side of DNS or WAN addressable since it is private network.  I am only talking about private network side not the public side when everyone thinks about DynDNS that is public network.  I am not talking about public networks.

Just wondering if this it already in opnsense or its better to turn of LAN DNS in opnsense and setup a unix box with DNS Server to handle private dyndns updates and do all of what opnsense is doing for dhcp?

If anyone has done this in opnsense then I would like to see a config or setup of how you went about getting it working.
