Good afternoon,
Actually you meant to say 'unbound' rather than 'unbound_manager' - huge difference;)
unbound indeed. I stand corrected.
I don't use IPv6 but for the purposes of generating say the 'forward-addr:' pair, then it's a simple text substitution of the static third column...not sure what your specific IPv6 unbound error message is?
I know you do not. Yes I could not see anything obvious in the documentation. But I come across additional private network IPv6 clause in some examples. Will do some tests after work and happy to share the error.
:rolleyes: Yes, sadly stupidity on my part...shouldn't blindly copy'n'paste existing code and not actually review the output.:oops:
P.S. Use of 'tab' delimiters rather than 'spaces' in '/etc /hosts' will also cause unexpected output.:oops:
No comment;)
 
I have not written a complete equivalent parser for either the 'address=/' or 'server=/' dnsmasq directives, so lazily only 'expect' simple tripartite clauses.

dnsmasq also allows multiple hosts per address line:
address=/host1/host2/192.168.0.1

Not a very common setup maybe, but does impact me. Perhaps this is the same as the pixelsrv comment.

I also am thinking of tweaking a suggestion to handle dhcp-host options in dnsmasq.conf.add, as I have migrated out of the using the NVRAM option.
 
ok because of the entware problem, but I activated and installed everything and got the adblocker and YouTube adblocker going. however, despite successful installation, I have advertising everywhere, what can I do? I no longer have diversion installed and did a complete clean installation, but how can I block the ads with unbound, who has solutions? thank you
 
The downside of the current dnsmasq disable approach is that it only addresses manually assigned DHCP entries. It doesn't address resolution of regular DHCP hosts in /var/lib/misc/dnsmasq.leases.

I found my test script I wrote back in January to try to do this. In theory, you would run it every day (or in an interval similar to the DHCP lease time). The hosts path has been altered to pass the Cloudflare block on this site.
Code:
#!/bin/sh

UNBOUNDLOCALHOSTS="/opt/var/lib/unbound/localhosts.conf"
LANDOMAIN="$(nvram get lan_domain)"

if [ /etc/ hosts.dnsmasq -nt $UNBOUNDLOCALHOSTS ] || [ /etc/ hosts -nt $UNBOUNDLOCALHOSTS ] || [ /var/lib/misc/dnsmasq.leases -nt $UNBOUNDLOCALHOSTS ]; then
        echo "local-zone: \"$LANDOMAIN.\" static" > $UNBOUNDLOCALHOSTS
        echo "local-data: \"$(nvram get lan_hostname).$LANDOMAIN. IN A $(nvram get lan_ipaddr)\"" >> $UNBOUNDLOCALHOSTS
        echo "local-data-ptr: \"$(nvram get lan_ipaddr) $(nvram get lan_hostname).$LANDOMAIN\"" >> $UNBOUNDLOCALHOSTS
        awk -v landomain="${LANDOMAIN}" '{ print "local-data: \""$2"."landomain".\tIN A "$1"\"\nlocal-data-ptr: \""$1"\t"$2"."landomain"\"" }' /etc/ hosts.dnsmasq >> $UNBOUNDLOCALHOSTS
        awk -v landomain="${LANDOMAIN}" '{ if( !($4=="*") ) print "local-data: \""$4"."landomain".\tIN A "$3"\"\nlocal-data-ptr: \""$3"\t"$4"."landomain"\"" }' /var/lib/misc/dnsmasq.leases >> $UNBOUNDLOCALHOSTS

        unbound-control reload
fi
In the end I didn't bother using it at all but I think it's at least worthwhile to account for the dnsmasq.leases file on a daily basis.

Ensure the following line isn't commented out in 'unbound.conf'
Code:
grep "log-local-actions.*yes" /opt/var/lib/unbound/unbound.conf
If it is commented out, then you need to use 'vx' to edit the file and uncomment the line, then view the live log

Yes auto-conversion after "dnsmasq disable" is really good , but could benefit from further additional tweaks in all three areas. Over the weekend, I will try to find this script and suggest/test something, need to read unbound documentation. Enabled dnsmasq back for time being. In my case
  • Hosts IPv6 records converted from - now prevent unbound_manager from starting
  • Strange asus names like www.asusnetwork.net and router.asus.com ended up with extra suffix for my local domain
  • address=/pixelserv/pixelserv.<homedomain>/<ip> from dnsmasq.conf.add did not quite convert either
I've uploaded v3.16b Beta to GitHub dev which now displays an additional warning message if IPv6 is enabled before the dnsmasq bypass process being started.

The beta should now correct two of the above issues, but I'll leave the IPv6 records for now awaiting your feedback.

I have unistalled Diversion and installed pixelserv-tls directly from Entware + own startup and cron + awk based converter of adblock file from nxdomain to redirect.
I was not sure what is best way to restart unbound after such swap - what makes more sense?
Code:
<replace adblock config>
unbound-control reload
unbound-control start
Or
Code:
unbound-control stop
<replace adblock config>
unbound-control start

Now down to business. I have downloaded unbound_manager v3.16b and tried
Code:
dnsmasq disable
Conversion works way better. IPv4 hosts now convert nicely.
Not exactly sure what is the purpose of last lines and where they come from (not from my configs), but..
unbound throws localhosts:135: error: unknown keyword 'yes'
Code:
forward-zone:
        name: "127.0.0.1#53535"
        forward-addr:
        forward-first: yes
So yes, whoops. Commented out to see what else.

And IPv6 continues being disaster.
Code:
[1590100426] unbound-checkconf[27154:0] error: error parsing local-data at 17 'myasus.local. IN A 2a02:dead:beef::1': Conversion error, ip4 addr expected
[1590100426] unbound-checkconf[27154:0] error: Bad local-data RR myasus.local. IN A 2a02:dead:beef::1
[1590100426] unbound-checkconf[27154:0] fatal error: failed local-zone, local-data configuration

I tried to add extra server side magic, but that did not help
Code:
private-address: 2a02:dead:beef::/48
access-control: 2a02:dead:beef::/48 allow
Which makes me think perhaps this unbound version does not really like IPv6?
Or do we need DNS64 setting?
Or missing extra local-zone for some of local-data?
 
IPv6 records should be AAAA instead of A. It’s getting more complicated. Have the patience of a beta tester. ;)

We need AAAA for IPV6 - of course!
local-data: "server.company.lan. IN AAAA 2001:db8:dead:beef::254"

Hmmm. I’ve a native v6 connection - could this be why I’m suddenly experiencing difficulties with Netflix streaming on my kodi HTPC, I wonder?

Did you have custom hostnames setup in dnsmasq for any of it?
 
I also am thinking of tweaking a suggestion to handle dhcp-host options in dnsmasq.conf.add, as I have migrated out of the using the NVRAM option.

I had stopped using NVRAM for storing dhcp host names/IP address years ago and went the dnsmasq.conf.add route. Much more flexible, easier to maintain, portable. Never looked back.

Is that good or bad now? Advertising still available
 
I downgraded to 3.15 master, changed to AAAA for IPv6 records, corrected still mistranslated pixelserv dns entries and have unbound with dnsmasq disabled for both LAN and server use. Happy days.

Will investigate some of how to have nicers stats over the weekend...
https://nlnetlabs.nl/documentation/unbound/howto-statistics/
I've uploaded a revised version of v3.16b2 on GitHub dev.

It doesn't cater for all possible dnsmasq syntax, but hopefully it should now work for your use case? (famous last words :D)

e.g. 'secure-eu.imrworldwide.com'
Code:
