AB-Solution 1.0 release

  • SNBForums Code of Conduct

    SNBForums is a community for everyone, no matter what their level of experience.

    Please be tolerant and patient of others, especially newcomers. We are all here to share and learn!

    The rules are simple: Be patient, be nice, be helpful or be gone!

Feature Request: Please consider adding an option to "follow" only the sites that are blocked. Something like the following:

tail -F $installDirPath/logs/dnsmasq.log | grep 0.0.0.0
​
This might help in trying to determine white list entries for certain problematic sites. For example, navigating to cbs.com and attempting to launch a video generates (pretty scary how many sites are accessed, but I'm guessing that only a subset would be necessary to access the video):

I can do that, anything else you guys look forward to to filter for?
 
i removed all old content of beta version and reboot router....then i install the new version and i think it is all ok.....do i need put this in terminal too? i didn`t yet?
Code: 
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/decoderman/AB-Solution/master/ab-solution.sh --no-check-certificate

i add this two address to blacklist but still see the ads? is this correct?
Code: 
# Add blacklisted Domains as follows, without the leading #
# 0.0.0.0 pricegrabber.com
# 0.0.0.0 www.pricegrabber.com
  0.0.0.0 wlbetclic.adsrv.eacdn.com
  0.0.0.0 promos.bwin.com
this is the site where are this ads....
Code: 
http://www.sportstream.tv/

This is going to be a automated feature for the next version. Including a symlink back to /home/root if so desired.
Also I try to restore the contents of .ash_history as well after a reboot.

If it says AB-Solution 1.0 then you run the latest version.
If unsure, activate both logging and ad-blocking. Then post the contents of /etc/dnsmasq.conf.
 
What about blocking ads if i use openvpn outside my home network? I connected right now with my phone using openvpn and ads are still here....

Have you configured the OpenVPN server to use the router's DNS for VPN clients?

This is something I want to check during the install as well, but just had not the time to do it.

Can you post a screenshot of what settings you made so I can recreate it for my tests with my VPN provider?
I can then implement the findings in one of the next versions.

Can you toggle either Adblocking or logging on or off and back to what it was. This will regenerate the AB-Solution settings file and fill it with the latest data.
I am interested in what the config file entries are under the heading 'Backup settings (not used yet)'

@bayern1975 I am pretty sure that the custom configuration is not meant to be filled with IP Addresses.
The log says clearly that more is expected:
Options error: Unrecognized option or missing parameter(s) in config.ovpn:29: 95.176.233.13
