Re: FireHOL 2.0.1 and adblock.

I see... 28830 iptables rules...
(by the way... it seems FAST_ACTIVATION is not enabled on your setup,
but anyway it will only make activation faster - firehol will still
need some time to generate 28830 rules - it's a bash script
itself...).

You should put the adblock IPs into an ipset:

1. download the 3.x version of firehol
2. read the ipset info here: http://firehol.org/guides/ipset/ and
here: http://firehol.org/firehol-manual/firehol-ipset/
3. if you update the adblock IPs regularly, consider using this:
https://github.com/ktsaou/firehol/blob/master/contrib/update-ipsets.sh
(check near its bottom for configuration examples - if you get the
adblock IPs from a public internet source, I can add it to this script
- just tell me where you get it from)
4. rephrase the client statement you have as (assuming the ipset will
be named adblock): client http accept dst not ipset:adblock

If you do the above, it will be a lot faster (as if no adblock is
there) and you should be able to update the adblock IPs without
restarting the firewall.
