OK - my mistake... I scrolled up and it does say: Skynet: [INFO] Skynet Sucessfully Updated - Restarting Firewall.
It's just that since you then clear the screen and go back to the AMTM menu immediately thereafter, the "success" message isn't actually displayed for a useful period of time. Maybe put a 0.25s delay before going back to the menu? That'd be long enough to register but not long enough to slow down any particular work someone was doing... On the other hand now that I know what's going on it's irrelevant to me. For us n00bs though, it'd be useful.
Re using the geoip ban function, is it possible to ban all except an allowed list?
Something like:
ban country all
allow country "us uk"
Or is it necessary to name each as in:
ban country "pk cn sa ru ..."
I'm wondering about the very same question ???
I have been using Skynet for a long time. Love it. I'm wondering if Ai Protection from Trendnet adds something along with Skynet. Ai Protect is OFF for me. Opinions ?
Adamm, looks like with hervon this makes (at least) two votes for some kind of whitelist feature, although we're coming at it from different angles since he's looking at it from a country perspective and I'm thinking per-device (MAC or LAN IP). Is that something that would be complex to build in? Just curious.
Is there a limit on the number of countries that can be banned?

(was interested to track if any specific lists seem to be worse on false-positives and if I might want to remove them...)
Turns out most of these false positives will show up as malware blocked from the first search, but then do not actually appear on a malware list in the second search? Is that because the malware search is 'live' and by the time I check them they have been cleared, but are still listed locally?
I wonder if the blocked ip is in a block ip range, will it display, coz sometime when I search the blocked ip, it didn’t show where list it is coming from.I can't say I run into issues with incorrectly blocked websites too often, my whitelist usually stays default due to the amount of reinstalling I do for debugging. But if you do track down any list that is providing excessive amounts of false positive feel free to pass on the information and we can possibly remove it from the master list accordingly.
Yes that would be correct, "stats search malware xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" compares the IP in question to a fresh copy of each list.
Yes just read the results carefully.I wonder if the blocked ip is in a block ip range, will it display, coz sometime when I search the blocked ip, it didn’t show where list it is coming from.

This feature works fine for me. I would recommend using white-list when you come across an ip you need to be allowed. Don't use unban in this case.That's exactly what I'm finding. Seems you are seeing same thing - the IP or block has been 'cleared' by the time you search yet its still in effect in Skynet.
