Description

I have pfblockerng with DNSBL enable.

I have one DNSBL List called "ConsolidatedDNSBLLists" that is pulling from "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/StevenBlack/hosts/master/hosts" once a day.

Every time I reboot the pfsense box, I am not able to browse until I log in and run a "Running Force Update Task" (the other option is to wait up to 30 min for the next cron update)

I assume that you are either on Nano or are using RamDisks? If that is the case, the /var folder gets wiped at reboot.

See the following:
https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/6116

I plan on adding a restore function to the next version; as long as the devs have no concerns with the proposal.
