	1 Adblocking using /etc/hosts
	2 ===========================
	3
	4 Adblocking is a non-trivial task, but there are trivial solutions.

	6 host-gen
	7 --------
	8
	9 Install hosts-gen from <https://r-36.net/scm/hosts-gen>
	10
	11 % git clone git://r-36.net/hosts-gen
	12 % cd hosts-gen
	13 % sudo make install
	14
	15 Make sure all your custom configuration from your current /etc/hosts is
	16 preserved in a file in /etc/hosts.d. The files have to begin with a
	17 number, a minus and then the name.
	18
	19 Install the gethostszero script.
	20
	21 # In the above directory.
	22 % sudo cp examples/gethostszero /bin
	23 % sudo chmod 775 /bin/gethostszero
	24 % sudo /bin/gethostszero
	25 % sudo hosts-gen
	26
	27 Now the /etc/hosts with the zero hosts is ready and will be used in any
	28 further started application.
	29
	30 The gethostszero file can of course be reused to more easier create the
	31 /etc/hosts file. A cronjob can be used to update the file and run hosts-…
	32 again.

	46 They are supposed to be written in `/etc/hosts` file to disable DNS reso…
	47
	48 Get the script from here :
	49 [zerohosts.sh](https://si3t.ch/code/zerohosts/zerohost.sh).
	50
	51 Include your own `/etc/hosts` rules by including a file as an argument
	52
	53 zerohosts.sh /etc/myhosts.txt > /etc/hosts
	54
	55 Run the script each time you want to update the lists using a cronjob, or
	56 `/etc/rc.local`.

	65 --------
