    @andrew_cb said in haproxy 0.63_2 weird behavior, edits not working: @iSagen @TheCyborgWeasel The issue is likely the same as in https://forum.netgate.com/topic/178348/haproxy-backend-port-changes-are-not-applied/ Try adding load-server-state-from-file none to the Advanced Settings > Backend pass thru section of each backend. Great! I will do this.

    @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.

    @jrey It makes sense it’s the GEOIP DB if it has that size. It will take lots of cpu time split a file of that size into usable countries, regions and custom pfsense lists where I use GEOIP data. The 2100 CPU is anaemic (low clocked two core ARMv8 CPU) which is why it’s really noticable on that. I have made the measurements in an SSH shell using top to avoid the dashboard widgets interference. It is exactly one core a 85 -100% for 5 minutes with a few breaks here and there. One thing - can I change the cron job to run at another time? 19:00 is where I have the most load on my 2100, so it would be better if it ran at say 03:00am

    @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.

    @jimp said in updating to acme 1.0 breaks system beyond repair: need to restore from backup: While we do not deliberately break such configurations, if you install a package from unsupported repositories and they replace or mess with base system dependencies, then there is no telling what will break over time like this. Understood - thank you very much for the clarification. I need crowdsec though... and there are no official support yet. I don't mind reinstalling the system, it takes reasonable amount of time, unless I found netinstaller fails to connect to my pppoe which tripled the time of restoration. For that I have no explanation and it is obviously not related to the dependencies, but that's offtopic in this thread.

    Strangely enough, checking the system 4 days later, I now see that Wireguard service is reported running! The last thing I did 4 days ago was to disable Wireguard service monitoring by the Service Watchdog. Anyway, even when it was reported stopped at first, 4 days ago, the tunnels were working flawlessly. Very strange. I will keep an eye on it.

    Thank you Marcello.  Knowing that pfsense is designed to be a zebedee server and not a client has saved me some time.  I'll give your suggestion a try.

    Thanks Cry Havok, Actually had read the material in the link previously, but was not aware of Snort requirements. To the good is that won't have to break out a slide rule or an abacus to figure it out.  Memory is cheap.  Have to get a new motherboard and a quad 3.x cpu isn't gong to break the bank. Good to have to plan.  This may have saved me hours of pointless redos. Thanks again. Ed

    In squid GUI you can add any additional "custom options" you want. You can create ACLs, rules and more. As long you use the correct squid syntax you can add this the "custom options" box which adds these options to the squid.conf. this parameter could perhaps help you: "header_replace"

    Thanks for your reply.  After looking at the articles you suggested, I saw that I needed to create an /etc/radius.conf file and specify the appropriate values in the file.  I have it working now.  Thanks again!

    If you are using authentication, squid should be fist. and havp a parent for squid. Dansguardian needs squid after to fetch urls.

    @canefield: About Postfix; when defining the domain names and the internal servers in general, mail is not forwarded to them and so my mail in not coming into my mailbox. Is there more to configure and/or some logs (or something else) to debug? check what postfix did with your messages on log files and/org report tab. make sure you did disabled third part antispam config on antispam tab. @canefield: I read that Mailscanner is consuming a lot of system resources, right? Any 'how-to' how to configure Mailscanner and a 'how-to' how to debug it for future purpose. A good start is selecting all default options on gui.

    I am seeing this with version 4.1.0_3 v2.3 on 2.0.1-RELEASE (amd64). Pentium G620 @ 2.60GHz 2 gig ram 4 gig SSD with 80% free System log entry: kernel: pid 57780 (ntop), uid 0: exited on signal 4 (core dumped) Specifically, this occurs when you try to view any of the ntop summary pages (ones listed in the menu "Summary" including the default main page that loads when you click on the ntop link in the pfsense menu). Visiting any non-summary page by directly entering the url is fine.

    I solved my second problem by enabling everything under "Snort: Interface: Preprocessors and Flow" even though I don't know if it's the right way. No error so far for the categories I have enabled. However, i was not able to find a solution about the enabled rules (signatures) on each category. I guess i have to live with that for now :/ But for sure there must be somewhere a description/documentation of each category, what kind of attacks is preventing but i could not find it so far..if someone has found something plz let me know
