# hosts
Curated hosts file with various domain blocks!
See ["**Source**"](https://git.flossboxin.org.in/vdbhb59/hosts#sources) below for credits and source list. Lot of hosts are based on my own digging and compatible with almost all kind of adblockers.
Use ["**this batch file**"](https://host.flossboxin.org.in/scripts/hosts_install_win.bat) as the latest shell script for Windows.
This readme is cosmetically-duplicated in my [parallel world](https://host.flossboxin.org.in).

# Nightly/Daily builds
* Daily builds of the hosts file is now implemented and can be directly found [here](https://hosts.flossboxin.org.in).
* Thanks to [Ushma](https://github.com/ushmashah8805) for the squashing, coding and nightly implementation. :)

# Install hblock
Thanks to [Héctor Molinero Fernández](https://github.com/hectorm/hblock/) for his scriptures.
**shasum -c = SHA1**
```sh
curl -o /tmp/hblock 'https://git.flossboxin.org.in/vdbhb59/hosts/raw/branch/main/hblock' \
&& echo '10d8cb00d093171135c458cbf3535ebcfb14c371 /tmp/hblock' | shasum -c \
&& sudo mv /tmp/hblock /usr/local/bin/hblock \
&& sudo chown 0:0 /usr/local/bin/hblock \
&& sudo chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/hblock
```

# Install systemd service and timer units
The following commands will schedule a daily update of the hosts file. See [systemd-timers](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/systemd/Timers) for more information.
**shasum -c = SHA256**
```sh
curl -o '/tmp/hblock.#1' 'https://git.flossboxin.org.in/vdbhb59/hosts/raw/branch/main/hblock.{service,timer}' \
&& echo 'd6865ab7b524c8ee8b771d62844811888851d76cc626cf728fac90b4ba266d47 /tmp/hblock.service' | shasum -c \
&& echo '4b31e06d7dc61ee4b683de38dabf63a178a7adc95563a418500fa5b56865502b /tmp/hblock.timer' | shasum -c \
&& sudo mv /tmp/hblock.{service,timer} /etc/systemd/system/ \
&& sudo chown 0:0 /etc/systemd/system/hblock.{service,timer} \
&& sudo chmod 644 /etc/systemd/system/hblock.{service,timer} \
&& sudo systemctl daemon-reload \
&& sudo systemctl enable hblock.timer \
&& sudo systemctl start hblock.timer
```

# Modify default options with environment variables
To change the default options instead of modifying the original service it is possible to override its properties.
For example, to have multiple domains on the same line and enable regular expressions in the allow-list, create the file
`/etc/systemd/system/hblock.service.d/override.conf` with the following content:
```
[Service]
Environment=HBLOCK_WRAP=20
Environment=HBLOCK_REGEX=true
```
Then reload the systemd configuration and start the service:
```sh
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl start hblock.service
```

# Check Shasum the actual way
(Thanks [Alexis La Porte](https://gist.github.com/aklap/3c66f1991909f448e5ff) for this.)
**Organic:**
In terminal run:
For sha2:
`shasum -a 256 filename/path`
For sha1:<br>
`shasum -a 1 filename/path`
Use your eyeballs and compare by sight the expected hash and the computed hash in the terminal. Eye strain might ensue.
**Artisanal & organic:**
Run the above commands. Copy the resulting shasum with Ctrl + C.
In browser or file use Ctrl + F with your copied shasum; if you find a match, congrats your file is fine! If no match, your file might have been altered or tampered with.
**Inorganic, man-made:**
Use shasum check command. Runs diff and prints results in terminal.
In terminal run:<br>
`echo 'your_expected_shasum_here_followed_by_a_space *name_of_file_to_check_after_asterisk' | shasum -c`

## Check hash algorithms: "MD2 MD4 MD5 SHA1 SHA256 SHA384 SHA512" via command prompt in Windows:
For default (sha1):
`certUtil -hashfile hosts`
Place the algorithm you wish to check after the filename:
`certUtil -hashfile hosts MD2`
`certutil -hashfile hosts SHA256`
___
## Supported Operating Systems
***Android:*** For non-rooted devices, these host files can be used with [`Virtual Hosts`](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.github.xfalcon.vhosts/), [`Tracker Control`](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/net.kollnig.missioncontrol.fdroid/), [`DNS66`](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.jak_linux.dns66/), [`Blokada`](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.blokada.alarm/), [`Personal DNS Filter`](https://www.zenz-solutions.de/personaldnsfilter/) or [`Nebulo`](https://nebulo.app/source).
The above softwares are free and open-source ad-blockers.
For rooted devices, one can replace the default **hosts** file with the file of choice from here, after renaming the choice file to "**hosts**". Permissions should be **rw-r--r--** / **644**.
Otherwise, if one does not wish to add it manually, one can use this host file with [`AdAway`](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.adaway/), a free and open-source ad-blocker for Android.
***Linux:*** An open-source host file manager called [`hBlock`](https://git.flossboxin.org.in/vdbhb59/hosts/raw/branch/main/hblock).
***Mac OS:*** These host files can be used with [`gasmask`](https://github.com/2ndalpha/gasmask).
***Windows:*** Users for Windows would find it easy to use with [`Hostman`](http://www.abelhadigital.com/hostsman/), a software to manage host file.
In case the above is not working, you can try one of the following as well:
[`SwitchHosts`](https://oldj.github.io/SwitchHosts) or [`HostsFileEditor`](https://github.com/scottlerch/HostsFileEditor)
Use installer [`hostsinstaller`](https://host.flossboxin.org.in/scripts/hosts_install_win.bat) with administrative rights in Windows.
Use [`Optimizer for Windows`](https://github.com/hellzerg/optimizer/releases) (use Hosts option > Advanced editor function), the finest Windows Optimizer with/without administrative rights in Windows.

**How to disable DNS CACHE services on Windows?**
1) Hit Win+R & type `regedit` & press enter.
2) Go to `HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\Dnscache`, and locate the "Start" registry key. Now change its value from 2 (Automatic) to 4 (Disabled)
3) Restart computer once & now change your host file with bigger SIZE.
