unbound Feature

Open gUstrx opened this issue 4 years ago • 4 comments

The new unbound function allows you to cut the block list in half

Unbound 1.13.1 Fix #397: [Feature request] add new type always_null to local-zone similar to always_nxdomain.

local-zone: "doubleclick.net" always_null

Thanks for the heads up, but Let's give this a bit of a grace period.. Will add this one.

For unbound best you can do is to publish RPZ files. This way the subscribers can set responses re: NXDOMAIN, or DROP in a config file. Also, with RPZ files Unbound takes less memory and it is more efficient to manage. You can enable or disable each zone separately. Check out my github for code to do the conversion and more.

You can also use something like local-zone: "0--e.info" static which will just return NXDOMAIN.

This method does not seem to work for subdomains.

always_refuse or always_null is better.

Updated the format to local-zone: "0--0.ml." always_null Thanks all!
