    @pulsartiger The database name is vnstat.db and its location is under /var/db/vnstat. With "Backup Files/Dir" we are able to do backup or also with a cron.

    @Gertjan said in pfBlockerNG not logging anything by default?: 192.168.1.85 doesn't exist on your LAN ? This IP does exist on my LAN but why it resolves some weird random desktop-sdshdsd.local? I am overwhelmed by the logs and see so much weird stuff like this. None of these things are on my network. Also no 192.168.51.5 exists on my network either.

I did that but it hasn't changed anything. This was a default Ubuntu install and it has something to do with systemd-resolve but I can't figure it out myself. @Gertjan said in pfBlockerNG not logging anything by default?: You saw the name of the system process, : is "systemd-resolve" a resolver ? If so, then your Ubuntu totally bypasses the pfSense resolver (and pfBlockerng) . This means that DNS requests made by your Unbuntu are being handled by Ubuntus own resolver. But why do I see stuff being resolved in pfblockerNG if it should be bypassed?

    @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.

    Hi again, to be honest: I guess, I did not remember exactly what I did 2 years ago. May I was mistaken by the interface name opt2 because the SG-3100 has a physical port OPT1 and I mixed up physical and virtual names. The goal was to use 2 different tunnels, one for the mobile clients and one for the site-2-site connection. And now all is running in that way . Regards

    Maybe this somewhat older article helps: http://taosecurity.blogspot.com/2003/12/understanding-snort-dns-ttl-alerts.html Using Wireshark is too much work for me, but a concise dig command also helps: [007@wopr ~]$ dig +nocmd -x 8.8.8.8 +noall +answer 8.8.8.8.in-addr.arpa.  44632  IN      PTR    google-public-dns-a.google.com. Your dns server is unlikely the authorative one for this address, so you'll see only the remainig time to live (the number in red), which is still a bit larger than 60s. You should probably check your DNS setup, but Google doesn't seem to work with very short TTL values. As the article indicates, sid 254 is not really that useful, as real man-in-the-middle attackers would probably use lower values to attack you, or at least not exactly 60s…

    There in no guide yet. :( When you install dansguardian package 95% of default config is applied, you have just to select squid ip and port. In the help tab there is a link for a dansguardian wiki that helps you on understanding how dansguardian works. the usual setup is dansguardian -> squid -> internet

    @stilez: How do I view or clear pfsense's own hosts file and local DNS cache? pfSense's host files is populated with the entries in the Host override section and also if you have DHCP hosts been automatically added. @stilez: Unbound is creating unwanted entries for my LAN IPs and some WAN side IPs ("local-data-ptr: "x.x.x.x PC_NAME.DOMAIN"" etc). What's the necessary config code for Unbound to not create records for, or to refuse to act as a DNS server for, specific IP ranges? Delete the entries from your host and domain overrides as Unbound makes use of that to populate its entries.

    This is another example where reading part of the docs is worse than none. squidGuard uses its own compare function (domainCompare()), so db_verify() cannot possibly know about the intended sort order. This is why verifying fails. The -o flag allows for skipping the sort order verification and when checking the domains.db files db_verify -o domains.db should be called. Needless to say, all db files are ok.

    If you installed squid pfsense package, during uninstall it removes squid binaries. find / -name squid will find all folders/files with this name To remove a folder, you can use rm -rf /path_to_folder_you_want_to_remove. Be carefull, rm can destroy your installation.

    Something that worked this time, who knows why.  I stopped the squid service and then started it usingsquid -d 9to get it to log what was going on to the console.  In a separate console I ran``` squid -k rotate ***EDIT**** Found same thing was occurring on a second pfsense box, same version, same installed add-ons, much less traffic.  Did the commands listed above and rotate finally worked again.  I'm also killing the squid -d 9 process that I started for doing the log rotation and starting squid again through the web console.

    I have looked at adolfo screen shots. My ALIX nanobsd 2.0.1 system has all the same way of trying to do this. But it just doesn't change the rules as the time changes. If I restart SquidGuard when I get to the different time period, it happily implements the new rules. Then the rules for the new time seem to apply forever. At the weekend I can try this on 2.1 development on a spare ALIX system and see what hapeens.
