    Request for Continued Support of Squid Package Dear Netgate Team, Could we please continue to support the Squid package? The upstream project has already resolved the known security issues, and it appears the main task remaining is updating the package to accommodate the recent PHP changes affecting the status page and address the decode issue. I’m unsure how to address this on my end and would greatly appreciate any guidance. Has anyone else looked into this, or is there a fix currently in progress? Thank you for your time and support.

    @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.

    @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.

    I have Wireguard installed on my firewalls. I have about 12 firewalls and most of them connect back to the main firewall which allows the connection to the servers in the main building. I setup a tunnel on each and then added each location as a peer on the Main firewall. This seemed to work except that the gateway. unde3r Monitor IP it only allows one IP address. So the first one works and shows connected fine, but the other 2 are red and do not connect. Everything seems to work until I added a 3rd peer and then the 1st peer showed as if it was offline even though it looked fine and I was able to connect to devices on that network. Am I supposed to add multiple gateways to the Main firewall so that shows as up? Is this the right way for the tunnels between the buildings which need access will work - By adding a tunnel at that location and just adding a peer to the main location?

    Under your Proxy Server>Cache Management>Hard Disk Cache System, try selecting null. null Does not use any storage. Ideal for Embedded/NanoBSD.

    I installed freeRADIUS on i386 and amd64 and I did not have such problems. Perhaps a "Clear package lock", complete deinstallation of freeradius und clearing the config.xml from freeRADIUS entries and the a new installation of freeRADIUS solves the problem.

    You can see VRT changes here http://blog.snort.org/, here http://www.snort.org/snort-rules/#rules or here http://www.snort.org/vrt/advisories.xml/ You can see emergingthreats (open & pro) changes here http://www.emergingthreatspro.com/blog/ I am not sure about automating it to actually put it on your pfsense. Most sure way may be just to run pulledpork and sftp them over and restart. At least with pulledpork with enable and disable you can disable CVEs (i..e just disable all CVEs before a certain year if you wanted), rulesets etc. So once you go through the rules you can easily run it. It does output only 1 file for each (normal snort rules and shared object rule file) which I can see as being both good but i find it annoying and a  little less refined, especially in tuning as you could just cat an individual rule file or open it and see what is enabled/disabled (presence or lack of # to comment it out) and then make the adjustment where needed in pulledpork. Hopefully maintainer of the package will work on the updating so it remembers your changes either from GUI or provides you access to config file for disable, enable rules.

    Go to "Target categories" and enter all sites you want to allow/whitelist. Than go to "Group ACL" and "Common ACL" and chose "allow" or "whitelist" for this target categorie. Than "General Settings" and "Save" and "apply". PS: If an URL is in different categories and one categorie is "block" and another is "allow" than the URL will be blocked. "Block" is stronmger than "allow". To solve this problem chose "whitelist". If an URL is one times "blocked" and another time "whitelisted" than "whitelist" ist stronger.

    The problem isn't squid, it's HAVP. from: http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=34199.0 Use the pfsense edit file tool under diagnostics and open this file:  /usr/local/pkg/havp.inc search for the following line: "$conf[] = "DetectBrokenExecutables   yes"; Change to: "$conf[] = "DetectBrokenExecutables   no"; save and restart HAVP.

    You can specify which interfaces Unbound can use to do outbound queries, so if you select both the WAN interfaces then queries will be balanced across the two interfaces. However if once interface goes down then you will get delays. So you can try this what Ermal mentioned in this forum post http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,31125.msg167503.html and see if that works for you. Would be interested to know as i can then update the doc site.

    @marcelloc: The location of this file in pfsense is /var/db/postfix/postscreen_cache.db Postscreen readme says that it's a temporary white list, not persistent. I pulled what I posted from the README. So, the temporary white like might be persistent if set and will be cleared if not set? Documentation seems to not be clear on that. It might be temporary as in the age thing will remove entries. I cannot test this ATM … but should be something the maintainers of postscreen could clear up.

    I have the same problem. It seems to be working perfectly and without any errors, test virus sites are detected and blocked and all functions appear to work. I set it up in transparent mode and have not tried the other proxy modes. After a number of hours it completely kills my internet connection. Stopping havp and the proxy and clearing states not fix the problem. I have to reboot my pfsense and my router. Any one has any ideas how to troubleshoot this? Package list: pfblocker snort havp vnstat I tried disabling and removing snort and pfblocker but the problem still occurred.

    Made it more useful and submitted it http://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/2008 tcpdump format was problematic and doesnt add much but not having to run snort to interpret the dump would be nice. Cant get snort to dump only alert packets in binary (tcpdump) format. It wants to dump the whole world or not at all. Not sure how to make optional on alert type beyond hard coding a list or adding a checkbox to every rule or category.

    Why the hell is OpenDNS blocking Snort.org of all places? Does this mean "all their clients" networks are not able to reach the SNORT.org VRT updates?
