    @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.

That's probably good thing ? ( ! ). Up to you to discover why your NAS should initiate connections to these countries. A NAS can go outside for maintenance purposes, for example to look for updates of it's system. These could be located anywhere of course. The GeoIP IP created a rule for you. How and where do you use that this rule ?

    @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.

    Since my upgrade to 25.07-RELEASE (amd64) built on Tue Jul 22 22:24:00 CEST 2025 FreeBSD 15.0-CURRENT, on one end of my most important tunnel, the tunnel still works fine, but the pfSense GUI keeps reporting the service as stopped. I had to remove its monitoring from the Service Watchdog which was also trying to start it, without success. Yet the trafic flows correctly. I'm holding off upgrading my other boxes. Is there something I could do to help diagnose?

    Hi sully, thanks for your feedback. Nice to hear, that it is working now and we didn't something wrong :) If you like to see, if squidguard is blocking sites correctly than you have to enable the logs in squidguard. In squidguard there is a tab "Log" in which you find all logs according to squidguard. So here you can see if you son is browsing lego.com and then there is a redirect to another domain, e.g. lego-xyz.com and then this page will be blocked. so you are able to find out the URL which is blocked and than can add this to your target rules. The logging capability of squid is for the whole traffic which passes squid. it shows you urls, ips. I think this is not what you intend to do. How the hierarchy is working exaclty I do not know because I just have got one target rule and one Group ACL. But your order sounds good. But in Group ACL you have one option on top "Order". I think this is the order the Group ACLs will be apllied. If you do further tests in this case please post back your results.

Everything has worked flawless though sine the firmware upgrade and reboot as I wrote about in my last reply, so for now I am quite happy. Cheers! //Peter

    @jigpe: @ Cino Whats the requirement of IP-Blocklist? (RAM), Can we uninstall it too in 2.0? And also, can we add exemption to this? jigp i'm not really sure on the ram and there i believe there is a whitelist function for it… there is a thread  just for IP-Blocklist under the Packages board. You can install and uninstall with no issues under 2.0

    Try one of the following: 1. Clear package lock in Diagnostic>Backup/Restore then reinstall squdiguard. 2. Sometimes, you need to uninstall it first before reinstalling 3. Follow LostInIgnorance's tip: http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,39420.msg205616.html#msg205616 (it worked for me).

    The snapshot upgrade worked! The igmpproxy is fully working again. Perhaps something to add into the 2.0 upgrade script. If the old package is there - uninstall automatically before doing the 2.0 upgrade. Glad this worked!

    @jimp: I seem to recall the question has come up before, searching the forum a bit may help, but if I do recall correctly, I believe that person simply reset the database directory every week and started fresh. Thanks for the rply jimp. Ill search around a bit better and see. I can put in a cron job to clear the db manually. Thanks!

    I managed to fix this myself. Yep, real proud now. :) I checked the web source and none of the javascript files it included were in the javascript folder. All js files were in the root of www. Not sure how or why this happened but once I copied them all to the javascript folder thinmgs started working properly. Perhaps a bug with the latest package installer script? Hopefully this will help anyone else who has the same issue. Btw, I used winscp with SSH access on to do the moves. It was quite easy then.

    Hmmmm, I can not see any difference to my filter config. Not sure why it is not working. Please try to save and apply settings in squid guard again and then check "Filter GUI" in squid guard. Perhaps there is some info because it isn't working. please also try to check system logs after reconfiguring squidguard. perhaps you can focus the maintainer of SquidGuard "dvserge" to this thread. I am at the end of my know how.

    You should not use the services->status for snort since it does not work in the way you expect since snort might have more that one process running.

    I am working on a lot of stuff for the dashboard.  I would like to have a "add column" "delete column" buttons to the top, so if you would like to add more (within reason of calculation of minimum width of 375 per column) you can add or subtract columns as you please, though I have to edit it so when you take away columns it would regroup them to the currently available columns…if that makes sense
