    @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.

    @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.

    Re: How to update to the latest Tailscale version? I am on latest released Netgate 6100 pfSense PLUS v24 ( pfSense_plus-v24_11_amd64-pfSense_plus_v24_11 ) pkg config abi FreeBSD:15:amd64 pkg -vv | grep -A 3 "pfSense:" pfSense: { url : "pkg+https://pfsense-plus-pkg.netgate.com/pfSense_plus-v24_11_amd64-pfSense_plus_v24_11", enabled : yes, priority : 0, cat /usr/local/etc/pkg.conf ABI=FreeBSD:15:amd64 ALTABI=freebsd:15:x86:64 PKG_ENV { SSL_CA_CERT_FILE=/etc/ssl/netgate-ca.pem SSL_CLIENT_CERT_FILE=/usr/local/etc/pfSense/pkg/repos/pfSense-repo-0001-cert.pem SSL_CLIENT_KEY_FILE=/usr/local/etc/pfSense/pkg/repos/pfSense-repo-0001-key.pem } This firewall is obviously running on FreeBSD 15 no longer on 14. But can I use the freshports link for FreeBSD 14 amd64 quarterly which is at tailscale 1.86.2 or can I only go up to version tailscale 1.84.2_1, and need to wait until they have a version of tailscale 1.86.2 or higher for the FreeBSD 15? Would it be good enough to tell it to ignore the OSVERSION? export IGNORE_OSVERSION=yes Note: use of 14 and not 15 ? pkg add https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:14:amd64/quarterly/All/tailscale-1.86.2.pkg service tailscaled restart tailscale up

    I've read through some other posts about this, but they either didn't say whether the proposed solution worked or they were very convoluted and difficult to understand. Here is our scenario: We have 6 locations--Las Cruces (LC), Sunland Park (SP), El Paso (EP), Abilene (ABI), Fort Worth (FW), and Plano (PL). LC and ABI have software that is accessed by the other 4 locations via VPN. There are WireGuard VPNs set up between LC and those 4 locations (SP, EP, FW, PL), and ABI and those 4 locations (SP, EP, FW, PL). There is also a WireGuard VPN connection between LC and ABI. LC and ABI have 2 internet connections. SP, EP, FW, and PL each have one internet connection. If the primary internet connection goes down at either LC or ABI and failover occurs to the secondary internet connection, is there a way to set up the WireGuard VPN connections so that they also failover without purchasing some 3rd party application? Thanks.

    I can try a fresh install later tonight. I really need to find a way to clone a UDMA CF card…using a CF2IDE adapter on a nano-itx motherboard's IDE primary port. Trying to keep the hardware down to zero moving parts. Having a number of CF cards to cycle through would make it a bit easier to test various packages.

    Blacklist rebuild can take time from 10 min up to 1.5 hour (depends on the speed of you system) Is it possible if the blacklist rebuild does not fully complete Only if it had been interrupted manually or reboot.

    @biggsy: I was curious about this, having tried ntpq myself with the same timeout. I did some searching and found this thread http://www.monkey.org/openbsd/archive/misc/0408/msg00448.html It seems, from the first few responses in the very long thread, that openntpd doesn't respond to ntpq and probably never will. Do you know/suspect your LAN clients aren't sync'ing to pfSense? I expected " ntpq -p " to work, but never bothered to use anything else to check if the ntp server is working. I just performed ntpdate on one of my computers and got some positive feedback: ntpdate 10.119.97.61 29 Jan 11:38:06 ntpdate[15951]: adjust time server 10.119.97.61 offset -0.004357 sec I guess this thread can be closed. Would be nice to see what servers the pfSense box is sync'ed to, but I suppose this would suffice. Thanks for having me .. think outside the box :)

    I still use pfJailCtl GUI on 2.0.1 and it's capable to start my jail on boot. Of course it needed additional work to make it run smoothly: 1.  Turn on the debug in the GUI. 2. Configure jail and push Create which of course would not work, just copy script from debug output. 3. Replace sysinstall installed by the packet (from FreeBSD 7) with FreeBSD 8.1 version. 4. Modify script from §3 according to your needs, remember to change FreeBSD release to something 8-tish ie I used 8.2, turn ssh if you wish - remember to change port because otherwise pfSense and jail ssh would not be distinguishable. 5. Run your script from shell. 6. Boot jail from GUI. I successfully share SMB from jail, which I know is not too great idea on firewall, but it save me one box @home and it's a bit safer than sharing directly from pfsense. I also managed to run vnc to xfce4 on xvbf in the jail. If someone would need such functionality I shall share this result.

    Last time I sniffed the traffic from my tablet it looked like the Facebook app just used standard HTTPS, so as marcelloc said, transparent proxying wouldn't catch it. You'd have to set the proxy settings on the phone/tablet if it's supported.
