<alias>
  <name>spamhaus_drop</name>
  <url>http://www.domain.tld/sample-net4096-8host-subnets2.txt</url>
  <updatefreq>7</updatefreq>
  <address/>
  <descr><![CDATA[SpamHaus DROP (Don't Route Or Peer)]]></descr>
  <type>urltable</type>
  <detail/>
</alias>

grep: /var/db/aliastables/spamhaus_drop.txt.tmp: No such file or directory
