How to whitelist for unbound dns blocker

[John DeLuca]

Hello I’m trying to unblock click.redditmail.com on my network and I’m pretty sure it’s unbound that is blocking it as I have it whitelisted on Skynet and diversion. Do I have to do it in the configs?

If you have the file /opt/share/unbound/configs/allowhost, add it there. That assumes you’re using the adblock from unbound manager, but I don’t know why you would if you already have Diversion.

But it does use StevenBlack list, which blocks that domain.

Does diversion use the same block list?

Easier for you to check in the Diversion menus.

This?

Blocking file / Hosts files - Diversion

diversion.ch

I’m using the Large list so I assume whatever is in there is covered by unbound so I’ll turn off the ad blocking on that.

Should I remove the dns firewall too if I have skynet?

Remove the dns firewall because it’s just another dns blocklist already included in the big oisd list. It doesn’t compete with Skynet as an IP blocker.

I would remove both and leave Diversion only if on-router ad-blocking is what the user wants.
