AB-Solution 2.0 is out! (v2.0.1)

[thelonelycoder]

Yesterday i upgrade my manual adblock to the latest version with:
curl -O www.ab-solution.info/releases/latest/ab-solution.sh && sh ab-solution.sh

Everything works nicely

But today i tried top open adblock on my router via SSH via url:
curl -O www.ab-solution.info/releases/latest/ab-solution.sh && sh ab-solution.sh

I recieve the following message:

/tmp/home/root# curl -O www.ab-solution.info/releases/latest
/ab-solution.sh && sh ab-solution.sh
curl: (6) Couldn't resolve host 'www.ab-solution.info'


is there a problem with the site?

When installed, you start AB-Solution with either:
- when in /home/root/
./ab-solution.sh
Or outside the home dir:
sh /tmp/mnt/<your device>/ab-solution.sh

The Server problem I have to look into, it appears other sites on the same machine are experiencing the same delay.

Thanks!

It seems obvious to me, but maybe add:
- when in /home/root/
./ab-solution.sh
Or outside the home dir:
sh /tmp/mnt/<your device>/ab-solution.sh

to your startpost and website F.A.Q. for ppl that are fresh in working with command line.

Version 3 has that already built in, so it will be no issue then.
I'll add that bit to the website next time I edit.

Nice, thanks. Keep up the great work!

Nice, thanks. Keep up the great work!

Thanks, the test team and myself are working hard to iron out as many bugs as possible before the release.
At the moment I can't say exactly when, as we've just found a possible problem that needs fixing first.
I want the release to go as smooth as possible. Hence the extended testing.

Did you try adding it to the whitelist?

I didn't try yet....will try add to whitelist and test again...

Dont forget to process after you add to the whitelist or your domain won't be removed from the hostlist.

As to why opensubtitles.org would be in these lists is a mystery to me:
winhelp2002.mvps.org
adblock.mahakala.is
hosts-file.net/ad_servers.txt
hosts-file.net/emd.txt
someonewhocares.org
support.it-mate.co.uk

Hi! Sorry for the late reply! I was actually reporting was it seems to me like a bug.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Have 2 devices on your LAN, one with last octet ending in .ab and the second, .abc ("a" and "b" are the same single digit in both)
2. Browse some sites with both devices, different sites
3. Get the stats for dnsmasq, you will see that those sites you browsed in device .abc also shows under .ab incorrectly.

My scripting skills are quite poor and I have not even looked at the innings of your script but it seems AB-S is filtering dnsmasq.log to produce the stats and when it filters by ip address that might bring up unwanted entries, maybe adding a blank space to the end of the filter string might suffice? That would prevent .abc entries from being filtered when .ab is required.

Regards,

S

It's always a good idea to write reports such as yours down somewhere.
In a related problem, I indeed found that you are correct with your findings.
Both these IP addresses get counted for one and the same in some of the calculations for the log stats file:
192.168.2.113
192.168.2.11

Thanks again for reporting, it will be accurate in the next release version.
