    @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?

    Purge is on the TODO list. Today varnish setup at pfsense respects client CTRL+F5 and no-cache directives. If you look at varnish docs, you will see that PURGE is done only by administrators and also can be done by console. If you realy need this at pfsense package gui, let me know how you need this and I Tell you if i can inplement or not.

    If you can see ident auth helpers at filesystem, you can enable it including all directives you need on squid custom options at package gui or edit squid.inc file to include your conf. Ident can be easily forged, consider changing your auth method.

    Looks like FreeBSD decided to change /dev/ttyd0 to /dev/ttyu0. Changing the port in /usr/local/etc/nut/ups.conf to /dev/ttyu0, as described in the link below, "fixes" the problem. http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,37471.0.html

    I got the OpenBSD files to download, but the other sites I have in there for spamhaus.org and spamcop don't seem to go get anything, so I'm guessing I will need to stick with file/list downloads for now.  The one thing I am not too sure on is when does the system do updates to the database or list the blacklist items?  Right now I'm seeing only whitelist numbers and 0s for blacklist.  Yesterday they were all 0s, so sometime in the evening/late the database was populated. Should I worry about greylist; it seems beneficial, but I'm just curious if it is going to block anything other than port 25 traffic requests. Thanks!

    I ever did it several times. Is there a mode of correct this issues without uninstall/install the packages? I think that it is a problem that affect the squid package permissions in use the squidguard. Can someone help me about set the correct permissions? Thanks a lot!  ???

    The squid memory usage depends on many things. On is your HARD DISK CACHE size. Every GB HDD is using ~10-15MB RAM. The 256MB of RAM is NOT the maximum squid is using. It is the MINIMUM squid uses. If squid needs more RAM it takes more RAM. But you do not have to worry. If squid is using mem and hdd it is a good sign because than squid is working as it should - caching. The high and low watermakrs will prevent your system to overload. If HDD or RAM reaches low water mark than squid starts to throw out "old" files. High watermark increases speed of throwing things out of mem and cache.

    Hi, I confirm you that picolcd driver now works only on x86, to let it work on x64 we should upgrade the package to lcdproc 0.5.4 (see http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,41060.msg212067.html#msg212067) Ciao, Michele

    After each package upgrade you need to do these changes again in squid.inc. But you do not need to reboot the box for the changes to take effect. After changing the squid.inc by hand just go to Services -> Proxy Server and then just click "save" in the "general" tab and than an new squid.conf will be created.
