    Hi, I had a problem with my home network today, so I checked pfsense and discovered that suricata had blocked the wan ip. After some tests and triggering some suricata alerts, the wan ip was blocked. I restarted pfsense and ran some more tests, but the problem no longer occurred. I then checked the wan interface settings and indeed the ip list does not include the wan ip, both now that it's working and before, when it was blocked. I'm using pfsense 2.8.0 and suricata 7.0.8_2. I use PPPoE to access the Internet.

    @Leon-Straathof Data retention settings are handled inside of ntopng. Documentation here. Pay attention to the RRD note. Also, if you've turned on some of the slice and dice time series information (is off by default), I'd suggest turning them back off. These balloon the storage requirements and are of little actual use.

    @LowKnee Just out of curiosity are you referring to the Database Sanity Check reporting that "these two counts should match" it the count is off by 1 (which I suspect is your case) there was a fix (manual code change) to change masterfile to mastercat in pfblolckerng.sh you want to change this change the line from s1="$(grep -cv ^${ip_placeholder2}$ ${masterfile})" to s1="$(grep -cv ^${ip_placeholder2}$ ${mastercat})" There is also an edge case if the count is greater than one, here is how that goes if in the deny directory you have say two flies (because of the list / file selection you have and they have repeat addresses file 1 has say 100 lines file 2 has say 10 lines (but those 10 lines are also in file 1, file 2 is a subset) you get two uniquely named deny files and then when the "count" is calculated on the deny directory it sees 110 entries when the "count:" is calculated on the "mastercat" file it only contains 100 entries the count doesn't match in my case the issue was caused by full list I had selected, also having an available subset lists (I had inadvertently selected one of) this causing two deny files with some of the same (overlapping data) I unselected the subset and bingo matched again, was a "my bad" selection. Edit: this applied to 25.07 (and 25.07.1) and pfblockerng 3.2.7 as it is labelled on those versions of pfSense

    @jhg said in NUT fails to start after 2.7.2 -> 2.8.0 upgrade: Interesting. I would have thought the initial reboot, which occurred as part of the upgrade, would have done the trick, but it took a second reboot, just now, to get things working. Glad you have it sorted. There was no difference in the output of usbconfig show_ifdrv at any point -- before or after unplugging/replugging the USB cable, nor after rebooting. ... Question: What would tell me whether or not a driver was loaded? If there were an attached driver, it should have shown up with the show_ifdrv command. If you use the command and look at the other usb devices, I think they will show attached drivers. I don't expect to see a driver attached to the ups, because there is a quirk that tells the OS to ignore that device (and not attach a driver). Look for idVendor and idProduct in the above output. The Vendor ID for your device is 0764, which corresponds to Cyber Power Systems, and the Product ID for your device is 0601, which is registered as "PR1500LCDRT2U UPS" (don't sweat an exact match for the name). You can see the quirk with the following command: [25.07-RC][root@fw]/root: usbconfig dump_device_quirks | grep 0764 VID=0x0764 PID=0x0005 REVLO=0x0000 REVHI=0xffff QUIRK=UQ_HID_IGNORE VID=0x0764 PID=0x0501 REVLO=0x0000 REVHI=0xffff QUIRK=UQ_HID_IGNORE VID=0x0764 PID=0x0601 REVLO=0x0000 REVHI=0xffff QUIRK=UQ_HID_IGNORE [25.07-RC][root@fw]/root: Your device is third on the list. The HID_IGNORE quirk says to ignore the device and not attach a driver. @jhg said in NUT fails to start after 2.7.2 -> 2.8.0 upgrade: You might consider adding this resolution to the release notes for 2.8. LOL... sorry, I don't have input to the release notes (I don't work here). While I wrote and maintain various packages, including NUT, I'm still just a volunteer. Most packages are actually written by volunteers.

    @provels said in updating to acme 1.0 breaks system beyond repair: need to restore from backup: This same mess happened to me, even w/o Acme, going from 25.07 to *.1. Blew, reinstalled w/ Crowdsec, blew again, reinstalled, clipped all the Crowdsec info from config.xml, restored config, back to normal. Crowdsec is a great concept, but I think I'm out. I never had this issue with Crowdec before the ACME update, even with updating from 2.7 to 2.8 there was no issues. In fact after restoring from a backup after the ACME update, Crowdsec reinstalled just fine, and this was before the recent release a couple days ago that contained a fix.

    There are already a couple threads on this debating its usefulness and whether or not it will work. IIRC there are problems with its implementation currently on FreeBSD, the whole thing is pretty new and likely still beta-quality. Once the FreeBSD package is stable then maybe it can be added.  Look up the other threads and chime in there.

    Also found that if the bandwidths are set incorrectly on the traffic shaping,i.e 400Mb/s instead of 80Mb/s it causes the tables to disappear?changing the value re-instates the sshlockout and default lockouts w/o rebooting. The snort2c table may have to be manually recreated after this as per above post.

    If by "package remain the same" you mean you will never configure anything there, then sure… Otherwise, your changes will get ignored every time you save the configuration (more precisely, the cronjob will run twice. This ain't a viable way of doing things, sorry. Move on.)

    Just like tracking down loss on the Internet. Start with tracert/pathping, figure out at which hop the loss starts. From there, get some packet dumps.

    I submitted a PR which I believe should fix this issue. I haven't seen this issue myself, so it's hard to replicate. Once the devs have approved, please update to version 2.0.3 and let me know if you see this issue again Thanks!

    @doktornotor: Well, the main difference is that the 2.4 version is badly broken, and the 2.2 version is badly outdated but at least could work. Frankly, I'd stick with haproxy. @doktornotor. I really appreciate your answer. I was planning to install Apache, because I was used to configure it on Linux. But I will follow your tip and try haproxy. Best regards,

    @trinidadrancheria: Just was wondering about Spam Assassin :) I've started fixing packages to 2.3. If I did it right on postfix pull request, mailscanner will probably get back on 2.3. 2.2 Pbis broke a lot of packages but Core team did a great job rewriting package structure on 2.3

    @jackgh: Just to make sure I understand, are you asking that I add dbl.spamhaus.org to my Exchange block list configuration (i.e. along with zen.spamhaus.org, b.barracudacentral.org, etc) dbl.spamhaus is a domain based block list. I do not use Exchange, so check to see where in the configuration you can define a Domain based list. http://www.spamhaus.org/faq/section/DNSBL%20Usage Thanks so much for your help with this. It looks like I'm figuring out multiple ways which all together will significantly reduce spam traffic. NP Spam must die! :)
