Block advertising servers on SoftEther VPN server level

8:03PM in General FlagThanks

Dear LET,

I have an private SoftEther VPN server running and I'd like to block advertising servers on server level so that they won't load on the client side of clients connected to my VPN (mainly my devices only such as Android phones and computers).

So I am looking for a way to do this and maybe a service that offers updated lists of advertising servers that I can use with a cronjob to update my copy.

Is that possible? Do any of you have a guide to do this?

Thank you very much in advance.

Regards :)

    I've removed their comments from their lines a few weeks ago: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=CTfDtYLr

    You'd need to find a way to update their host list, while removing their comments, if you like what they do. I use it on my proxy and openvpn servers, too, so I don't load crap either way with proxies or vpns.

    Ah, I know that one from my uBlock Origin filter list. So I put that list up into my hosts file on the server and I'm fine?

    For Squid I just use my recently added blacklist feature but couldn't find a similar function in SoftEther.

Yeah obviously it works fine in /etc/hosts. Same concept as on your PC-s. The vps/dedi will look on the host file and say, hey these spammy ad hosts are on localhost, so good luck loading them.
