    @Gertjan Whenever it is a full hour I see stuff like this in my logs: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/ip/94.16.122.152 It seems to be time servers but it's a TOR node and some private person hosting traefik? I feel like this should not show up? It originates from my ASUS access point. But it is also related to when the emerging threats get updated. All happens at the full hour mark. I don't know why some random private persons ntp server gets queried.

    @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.

    @EChondo What's your pfSense version ? The instructions are shown here : [image: 1753262126227-1acdc586-cb29-4148-9e36-81ade4e5e60c-image.png] A restart of a service will start by re creating their config files. If a certificate changed, it will get included. When the process starts, it will use the new certificate. @EChondo said in Issue with ACME Certificates Refresh & Restarting HAProxy: I haven't been able to confirm if the above works(mine just renewed, don't feel like doing it again just to test), so we'll see in 60 days I guess. No need to wait x days. You can re test / renew right away, as you are 'allowed' to renew a couple (5 max ?) of times per week.

    This still seems to be an issue, and makes the Tailscale client unreliable. I have 4 nodes down now with expiry disabled, after some unknown time, and then a router reboot they can no longer authenticate. Error executing command (/usr/local/bin/tailscale status) # Health check: # - not logged in, last login error=invalid key: API key does not exist unexpected state: NoState From the CLI I can run tailscale login, and it re-authenticates the same node, I can tailscale down + up and it connects fine, status on the webpage looks good, but if I reboot or restart the Tailscale service in the webpage it can no longer connect again with the same error needing to login again. The only way to make it work reliably is to clear the config, delete the node and reconnect as a new node. Pfsense 2.7.2, Tailscale package 0.1.4

    This is still an issue as of 2.8.0 / 25.07, and it drives me crazy. Gateway failure works as expected, the wireguard tunnels will fail over to the backup gateway and continue on as normal, but will never recover once the failed gateway comes back online. While a reboot will (usually) fix it, I usually just go into my routing settings and mark the secondary gateway as down, forcing it to revert back to the primary... the users tend to dislike it when I reboot the firewall in the middle of the day

    @heavymetalforever78 pfsense can for sure run on 1gb of ram - and other VMs could run on far less.. I have both a 2.8 vm and a 24.03 vm running on my nas, they only get 1GB each, etc. Don't try running some type 2 VM, run something like esxi or proxmox or something on the hardware.. To be honest if your goal is a NVR - get an actual NVR.. They use very little power, and are not all that expensive. I see some on amazon for like 60 bucks.. You would have to add some HDD.. but how much can a 2 or 4TB disk cost these days? Trying to use your "firewall" as your everything box is never a good idea.

    Confirmed still an issue as of May 2025 with pfSense CE 2.8.0 and FreeRADIUS package version 0.15.14 I also updated the Redmine bugtracker: https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/11054 Can this security vulnerability please get some attention? Wi-Fi supplicants are able to join an 802.1x WPA2-Enterprise network without the username in the client certificate validated at all.

    @MarinSNB Not sure, but I would guess you're likely to run into a problem if the Plus router is a newer FreeBSD version. The config sync could be a problem too because there are versions of the config file. https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/releases/versions.html

    Arpwatch has no way to suppress protocol errors such as this. ANDwatch, a pending package to replace the Arpwatch package, allows suppression by way of pcap filtering.

    @patient0 said in How do I restore my package conf files: ping pfsense-plus-pkg.netgate.com ping: cannot resolve pfsense-plus-pkg.netgate.com: Address family for hostname not supported Can you connect to the internet at all, like ping 1.1.1.1? From that message it does look as if DNS is not working on your system. You can't ping the package server like that directly. That hostname is actually a DNS text service record that ping does not know how to resolve. You must ask the DNS client to resolve the service record (SRV) using that hostname. The pkg utility knows how to do that, but ping does not.

    @Danil-0 said in Mailreport: Hi. I configured SMTP (System/Advanced/Notifications) on 587 port. The test included in the pfSense configuration works, the mail is sent and received but using Email Report the mail is rejected on server side. You can find log from server below. postfix/submission/smtpd[1935]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from unknown[my ip]: 554 5.7.1 <unknown[my ip]>: Client host rejected: Access denied; from=<user1@domain.com> to=<user2@domain.com> proto=ESMTP helo=<pfsense.domain.arpa> Why then does the test mail work? What's different with the Email Report? Thanks for help. Estou com o mesmo problema. Vc conseguiu resolver?

    @ColdBrew @viragomann @johnpoz This is an interesting discussion, and I’ve run into similar issues with HAProxy and subdirectory redirection. From what I understand, HAProxy should pass the entire path (including subdirectories) to the backend by default, as long as the backend is properly configured to handle those requests. A few things to check: Backend Configuration: Ensure the backend server (IIS in your case) is correctly set up to handle requests for the subdirectories. Sometimes, the issue might be with the backend’s routing or permissions. HAProxy Logs: Check the HAProxy logs to see if the requests are being forwarded correctly. If the logs show the requests reaching HAProxy but not the backend, it might be a routing or firewall issue. Firewall Rules: Double-check your pfSense firewall rules to ensure traffic on port 80 (or any custom port) is allowed to pass through to the backend server. If everything seems correct but it’s still timing out, you might want to test with a simpler backend (like a basic HTTP server) to rule out any IIS-specific issues. Let us know how it goes!
