    @qupfer What did I bang my head over this strange 502 issue. Your solution did it! Thank you so much, even 2.5 years later!

    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.

    @tinfoilmatt said in Failed or invalid Mime Type: [application/SIMH-tape-data|0]: (ASN data is IPinfo, not Maxmind) Thats correct but "GeoLite2-Country" is from Maxmind ... (that confused me) I'm considering simply adding "application/SIMH-tape-data" to the list to test. Thats what i tought too ... I'll try when I have the time for it ... Edit: I can confirm - adding "application/SIMH-tape-data" to the list at line 257 in /usr/local/pkg/pfblockerng/pfblockerng.inc did the trick - no more error! Edit: OK, problem resolved but I would like to know, whats the cause for that error! (SIMH-tape-data sounds like a "blast from the past" ...) Thanks a lot!

    @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.

    @Gertjan Hello, I installed the official app of vpn #1 on the crappy laptop but on the main laptop I did not install official app of vpn #2, I used it via wireguard. I am not worried about vpn #1 provider and how much they know about me. They already have my ip address since I connect to them direct. My goal is to hide from vpn #2. I don't want them to know I am the same person who used this service before. and thanks for the heads up regarding windows. I had a feeling that would come up. I know windows is spyware but for my purposes it doesn't matter since I really just need to make sure vpn #2 doesn't know this user is the same user who signed up last year. (ok yes I know, how do you know vpn #1 or #2 are not owned by ms? I agree, you dont know)

    fixed. thank you. What was weird/wierd is that HAVP did not show up with the pkg_info command, but 2 of them did when I went to remove clam. Removed those and clam and it seems to be working. thank you dvserg.

    Sorry, I still have no solution. My problem seems a bit different though, as the box is checked and I have no problem getting to the Internet. But I haven't tried to edit the config file, which one is it?

    Hardware monitoring. System temps via RRD and SMART status. Email notifications would be great too. Specially for smart status but for all of the above if possible.

    This exact problem has come to "bite" me again.  I'm setting up a second box (2.0 BETA4 from Aug 31, snort 1.34) on a larger network, and having the same problems with HOME_NET hosts being blocked.  My previous workaround was to create a whitelist of all the addrs in use on the network – that would work again except this is a larger network size and there appears to be a bug/limitation in the whitelist editing gui that only allows 298 hosts. Any ideas on how the actual problem here (HOME_NET hosts being blocked) could be fixed?  Secondly, any chance CIDR notation could be added to whitelists?  Or possibly changed to allow Firewall aliases to be members of whitelists. I'd really like to run snort in blocking mode, but it's completely unusable on all but a small (<298 hosts) network like this.

    I think it's bad idea, this will increase latency, decrease bandwidth, etc. I rather use pfsense for broadband bandwidth and have stand alone freenas to use LAN bandwidth without choking the pfsense server. Why don't you try Zentyal (formerly eBox) trust me you'll see serious performance penalty and run back to pfsense in 60 seconds flat.

    Try 2.0 first then to see if it works there. pfSense 2.0 is based off of FreeBSD 8.1, and has a different set of patches. Not sure if we include that one, but it's possible. If it works on 2.0, it's likely an OS issue and can't/won't be fixed on 1.2.x (unless you want to go through the trouble of making your own custom kernel…)

    Many thanks for the instructions..!!! I have manager to get both the Zabbix Agent and Proxy to work. For the record, my pfsense box serve as Internet Proxy Server for each branches and each branches are connected bye a leased line. So I am doing active monitoring at the moment, I might consider doing passive monitoring in the future if there is an effect on Leased Line Load to and from each branches. Best Regards, Pat

    The management interface status has never worked (And still doesn't) with shared key servers. Shared key clients are different as well. The status screen is mainly meant for PKI users.
