I no longer actually use the SIMS internal blacklist because my local blacklist outgrew the capacity of SIMS.

Out of curiosity, how are you blacklisting outside of SIMS?

I run a local DNSBL.


As I understand it, I can define DNS records of the form [EMAIL PROTECTED] --> 127.0.0.2 to define 24.4.2.1 as a bad address.

Not quite. Try a . instead of the @

Is there some similar syntax for blocking a CIDR address range?

That depends on the DNS server. For BIND, there is no generalized CIDR wildcarding but there is domain wildcarding so you can do things like this:


$ORIGIN 24.blackholes.my.domain
* IN A 127.0.0.2


BIND also has a $GENERATE directive for DNS records to do range-based wildcards.


Other name servers can do other things.
