DNS_Blocklist_Launcher

Simple Launcher for DNS_Blocklist Script with additional features.

Main reason for this launcher was to break down the commandline in fcrontab from:

%daily * * bash /<path-to>/dns_blocklist.sh -s 1,2,3,5,7,8,12,13,14,"https://easylist.to/easylistgermany/easylistgermany.txt","https://easylist.to/easylist/easyprivacy.txt","https://easylist.to/easylist/fanboy-social.txt","https://raw.githubusercontent.com/crazy-max/WindowsSpyBlocker/master/data/hosts/win7/extra.txt","https://raw.githubusercontent.com/crazy-max/WindowsSpyBlocker/master/data/hosts/win7/spy.txt" -b ~/bin/blacklist.hosts -r 0.0.0.0

to clearly arranged:

%daily * * bash /<path-to>/dnsbl_launcher.sh

Additional features

• add custom sources via source-file (instead of commandline argument)
