Objectives

There is a lot of info on the net about setting dnsmasq to block advertisements, trackings... etc. Bering-uClibcx.x comes with dnsmasq already installed, so here is a quick guide that shows a simple setup that will filter out advertisements sites from web pages on your networked devices, how lucky can we get !

Prerequisites

  • You will need Bering-uClibc 5.x or higher.
  • The curl.lrp package.

Manual setup

(treading carefully :-))

Enter the command: 

curl -s -d mimetype=plaintext http://pgl.yoyo.org/as/serverlist.php?hostformat=dnsmasq-server > /root/tmpfile.list

Check your file tmpfile.list, you should have a list of server with the following format: 

server=/yieldlab.net/
server=/yieldmanager.com/
server=/yieldmanager.net/
server=/... etc /

Then: 

cp /root/tmpfile.list /etc/dnsmasq.d/addblock.list

Edit /etc/dnsmasq.conf and enter: 

conf-dir=/etc/dnsmasq.d

Restart dnsmasq with: 

/etc/init.d/dnsmasq restart

That's it, all the nasty adds should be gone ! (well a bunch of them !)

Hum yeah! don't forget to save your configuration, a simple: 

lrcfg and s) Save configuration

will suffice.
