    @NRgia said in Suricata on Pfsense: @bmeeks Thank you for what you did for Snort or Suricata. I'm not sure what you want me to do on Redmine, due to is a bug tracker. My question is for Product Management, which I will ask it here to be public: What is the plan for these 2 packages, Suricata and Snort? Thank you Yes, Redmine is for both bug reports and feature requests. Asking for the Suricata binary to be updated to the latest 7.0.11 version from upstream is a legitimate Redmine request. I would suggest simply asking for the binary version update instead of asking about future Netgate strategy (such as the support plans for the packages). Strategy discussions typically don't get very far because they deal with proprietary information or plans that a company may not want to publicly discuss. Redmine is where the Netgate developer team tracks all the code changes they make for pfSense. They will see Redmine reports much quicker than a forum post.

    @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.

    Also started seeing this recently. Still investigating—but found this discussion (ASN data is IPinfo, not Maxmind), and then there was this whole recent thing where an "application/octet-stream" MIME type download started appearing (I forget with which popular feed). Fix was to edit pfblockerng.inc at ~L257. I'm considering simply adding "application/SIMH-tape-data" to the list to test.

    @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.

    @raidflex said in updating to acme 1.0 breaks system beyond repair: need to restore from backup: maybe uninstall Crowdsec when applying other updates first. It seems like it doesn't help at least from what I see on my system... it changes something.. so it must be definitely reported to their github. I have never experienced that before and crowsec was installed.. maybe with 2.8.0 something have changed

    Upgraded 25.07 and Tailscale is broken in the way users here describe. I can manually log in using sudo /usr/local/bin/tailscale login, but the tailscale service in pfSense does not pick this up and restarting the service clobbers the login state. Given 16004 was logged 7 months ago with zero activity, this is an indication that Netgate devices no longer support Tailscale.

    Scan you different groups mask then.. And again nmap is not the correct tool to check if what is currently online in you network.. Arp ping would be better tool Group them then 192.168.10-20 is printers, 21-30 is servers, etc. Use of a /16 so you can "group" specific IPs is pretty pointless. If what your looking for is what is online then use a networking monitoring software..

    @BBcan177 , thank you for the reply. Ping shows complete packet loss. So not resolving to DNSBL. It is not showing up in the reports page under IP or DNSBL, nor under the firewall logs. GeoIP is only set for disable inbound for GeoIP Top Spammers. -medic

    Agree - if this access is for you.. Then it would be better to vpn vs exposing such things to the public internet.. I wold never expose your unifi controller to the public internet.

    It's possible the high temperatures are causing some piece of gear (be it your firewall hardware, your ISP CPE, or maybe a switch) to flake out and take errors/drop link, but you would have to isolate and test to find out. If the temp swings are rapid and/or the humidity gets high you could also be dealing with condensation.
  • NUT package : pfSense as slave : shutdown issues

    Further testing has revealed this is not a problem specific to NUT, but a general problem with pfSense running on this particular hardware configuration. Running the command /sbin/shutdown -h +0 (or /sbin/shutdown -p +0) from the console brings the system down a HALT state where the console message is displayed "Press any key to reboot". Triggering the same command outside a console session (e.g. from the pfSense WebGUI Diagnostics > Command Prompt or even Diagnostics > Halt System) causes a reboot. I will post a modified question in the appropriate support forum in the hopes of finding a solution to this behavior.

    It's more about there being a wide variety of implementations of RADIUS servers/clients/NAS devices and they all do things slightly differently, plus the scripts to collect the data can be different. FreeRADIUS wrapped in some other flavor like daloradius may work with your AP, for example.
