    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?

    Snort is an IDS/IPS, not a proxy.  I assume you meant Squid?  Squid can block by user agent.

    Try this patch against the original p3scan.c code (the version directly from Ports will work fine with this).  It should fix the transparent proxy issue with p3scan.  Without it you must use p3scan by configuring the proxy in your mail client. http://www.thunderboltcomputing.com/downloads/patch-p3scan.c.gz If anyone knows where to submit this to the upstream p3scan Ports codebase, please let me know so I can submit it to them.  It appears the old maintainer of the FreeBSD package is no longer around.

    SquidGuard. Seriously, Squid has performance problems with large blocklists.  Using SquidGuard solves that nicely.

    you may have already tried but after you add and address to the white list the snort needs to be  restarted yo may also need to edit the file that starts snort an mentioned earlier in the board @korkakak: for my version: # uname -a FreeBSD cerberus 7.0-RELEASE-p8 FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE-p8 #0: Thu Jan  8 22:07:30 EST 2009    sullrich@freebsd7-releng_1_2_1.pfsense.org:/usr/obj.pfSense/usr/src/sys/pfSense.7  i386 pm26862 is right! The syntax of the & together with ; is mistaken and should be corrected. the way to correct this issue is two fold; First for operetion  where the process is sent to background (via the & operator) you must exclude the end of statement operator (;) and/or change line. For instance my config in the critical section looks like that : /bin/mkdir -p /var/log/snort;/usr/bin/killall snort2c sleep 8 snort -c /usr/local/etc/snort/snort.conf -l /var/log/snort -D -i ng0 -A fast & sleep 8 snort -c /usr/local/etc/snort/snort.conf -l /var/log/snort -D -i dc0 -A fast & echo "Sleeping before final memory sampling..." sleep 17 Each command is on a one liner, hope it helps. Keep in mind that removal of the & operator (send to background) does not allow the script to continue with all its operations until the snort -c directive return from execution (that's why blacklisting works only for the first declared device). hope this helps

    i had a small typo, so now it boots a ubuntu 8.04 diskless. But I still think that the pfS dhcp-server advanced should add the line "option root-path 192.168.1.xx:/mnt/nfs" when configuring tftp.

    I just tried bandwidthd 2.0.1.2 on pfSense 1.2.2 and 1.2.3-RC1 and it worked fine in both places. I filled in 1024 for the graph cutoff, and 150 for the refresh, and checked "draw graphs" and it's running OK on both systems. I even tried clearing all of the settings (blank boxes, all unchecked) and it still worked fine for me. Line 50 in the bandwidthd config is near "filter string" so you might make sure that box is completely empty and save the config again. Or you could post the config file somewhere (attach it here, or pastebin it) and someone could take a look to see what might be happening. Alternately, you can try another bandwidth monitoring package: http://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/How_can_I_monitor_bandwidth_usage%3F

    Or assign the WAN to the NIC directly and the LAN as a (unused) VLAN on the same interface. (ugly but in this case i think it wont hurt since the VLAN will not be used).

    @0tt0: Yes, it seems to work when I install it now. BTW: is the link on the pfSense logo correct when in TFTP page? Here it gets me a 404 (have to go back on history o go round other page first). But since I get so many weird problems here (see other post on packages) I'm starting to not trust my installation   :/ The link on the pfSense logo is not directory friendly. If you hover over it in Firefox you will see that it tries to go to http://x.x.x.x/packages/tftp/index.php when it should be going to http://x.x.x.x/index.php. This is caused when one uses a path on the link 'index.php' rather than '/index.php' the / instructing it to go to the root of the website. So this a pfSense oversight in the link (bug). I guess it could be jerry rigged in /packages/tftp/index.php to redirect to the intended location of /index.php.
