Hi,
Is there an easy way to copy the black lists and white lists from v6 to v7?
I have a running AWG v6 and another awg V7 for testing and eval.

Thanks

    Astaro has committed to aloowing bulk transfers in V7.5; at present, it's one at a time.

    If you will spend a little time experimenting with the new content filter, I think you will find that you need very few items in white and black lists.

    Here's a link to check individual sites: TrustedSource - Check Single URL

    You can get a free membership from TrustedSource, and that allows you to submit lists up to 100 URLs at a time.  Once you see how your lists are categorized, you can configure the 'Content Filter' so that you rarely will need to add a URL to your whitelist or blacklist.

    Cheers - Bob
    PS I've made a suggestion to improve the way filter actions are defined and assigned: Create Filter Action "Atoms" in Web Security

    Bob,

    I am running ASG 7.304

    May I know whether 'httpproxy' will still be used in V7.5 ?
    I ask this because you said V7.5 will change to use TrustedSource.

    I need 'httpproxy' because I've found a good way to manually edit my 'custom black list' , and I will depend on this method to write my own script.

    This method is shown below:

    First, I've found that editing httpproxy.ini enable me to manually edit the custom black list, like this 

    vi /var/storage/chroot-http/etc/httpproxy.ini

    Next, edit the list:
    ....
    [action_REF_DefaultHTTPCFFAction]
    defaultallow=1
    blacklist0=www.mmxxdd.com
    blacklist1=av-girls.blogspot.com/
    blacklist2=www.591rt.cn
    blacklist3=iloveabc.info
    ....

    Although Astaro Web Admin does not reflect the change after the editing, I think it is fine to do so because I can by-pass the Web Admin and stick only with command level in order to use my script which edits httpproxy.ini.

    The change in 7.5 will be the addition of URL reputation as a filtering device.  The same proxy has been in place since before the switch last year to TrustedSource for URL categorization.

    7.5 will also add the ability to import blacklists, so your invention will no longer be necessary.

    Cheers - Bob
