I have the same issue with the block list disappearing. Not sure how long ago, but a few months sounds right. I have tried the changes with the new link and the "--no-check-certificate" option, but it still fails.
Code: Select all
root@TPLINK:/tmp# wget --no-check-certificate https://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.txt
wget: not an http or ftp url: https://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.txt
I tried ewget, and that works, it downloaded the list of sites. It seems to have even less options, so I don't know if that can be a replacement for the wget commands in the runadblock.sh script. (Saving to file has the windows carriage returns (M) at the end of each line.)
I am quite behind on Gargoyle running version 1.8.1.
And the DNS Adblocking support for Gargoyle is version 20150716-1.0.1
Is there an obvious workaround? Or should I just upgrade.
I have been putting it off I guess.
For now I will just manually update the site list. Maybe a check to see if the remote files exist before blindly deleting the existing list would still keep us somewhat protected. I do understand that diskspace is limited.
Thanks for all the time and effort you have put into this.
