blockdomains - block list file format
Contents
Description
blockdomains uses one or more block list files which contain declaratios of the domains to block, one
domain per line that starts with any number of whitespace characters followed by a period (".") before
the domain to block. The blocking applies to the domain and all its sub domains.
Anything not starting with a period (".") is a comment and leading whitespace is ignored. Block list
domains start with optional whitespace and a period, followed by the domain name to block, optionally
followed by a whitespace and a comment. Like the following:
Exampleofblocklist
.bad.domain.com -- domain name up to whitespace is blocked
Blank lines are fine too; they treated as comments. The block list
domains don't need to be column aligned. So, here is another:
.another.domain.to.block
End of block list example.
