FreeBSD RELEASE-11.0 has been published and made available for public
consumption. From the release notes.
The libblacklist(3) library and applications have been ported from the
NetBSD Project. Packet filtering support for the pf(4) packet filtering
systems has been implemented. The blacklist system provides the
blacklistd daemon, the helper script blacklistd-helper to make changes
to the running packet filter system and the blacklistctl control
program. A selection of system daemons, including: fingerd, ftpd,
rlogind, and rshd have been modified to support sending notifications to
the blacklistd daemon. [r301169] (Sponsored by The FreeBSD Foundation)
Support for the ipfw(4) packet filter has been added to the
blacklistd-helper script. [r301736] (Sponsored by The FreeBSD Foundation)
Support for the ipfilter(4) packet filter has been added to the
blacklistd-helper script. [r301843] (Sponsored by The FreeBSD Foundation)
No where can I find a how-to describing how to enable this function or a
simple explanation of it's intended use and how it interacts with the
base firewalls.
Guidance desired.
Thank you.
