  • Mystic blacklist question

    From JayDawg@21:3/257 to All on Sunday, November 01, 2026 19:33:47
    Hey all!
    Here's a question regarding blacklisting in Mystic:
    Does an entry have to be an IP address or can I use a FQDN?
    Even better, can I use a wildcard with domain name?

    I want to blacklist anything from Google user content like this: *.googleusercontent.com

    Is this possible?
    Thanks!
    JayDawg

    You might want to up your firewall game with OPNSense or PFSense. You can easily do that from there! You might be able to find the CIDR addresses for googleusercontent.com and block those as well, which might be easier.

    You can use wildcards in the IP block.
    Don't know if you can block domain names as most of them come through as IPs anyways via telnet.

    You can use wildcards in the IP block.
    Don't know if you can block domain names as most of them come through as IPs any
    ways via telnet.

    Can you use CIDR Notation?
