    @spiker said in HAProxy Port Redirect Internal: I have the acme certs working just fine through HAProxy but I have to manually put in the destination port, in my case 10443. I have the front end set up to listen on the network in question and on port 443, and the backend set for 10443. What do you get exactly if you access port 443?

    @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.

    @jeremyc311 said in pfBlockerNG-devel 3.2.8 service pfb_dnsbl don't start: I’m surprised to see in my logs only one blocked IP, which is related to my TrueNAS I'll decode this one : @jeremyc311 said in pfBlockerNG-devel 3.2.8 service pfb_dnsbl don't start: Aug 5 09:01:14,1770008712,bxe1,LAN,block,4,17,UDP,192.168.2.13,116.147.64.181,51765,51413,out,Unk,pfB_PRI1_v4,116.146.0.0/15,ET_Block_v4,Unknown,truenasr740,null,+ Traffic, coming into LAN, from a LAN device (192.168.2.13 = your TrueNAS) going to a Chinise ( 116.147.64.181 ) Brazilian ( 177.72.195.114 - = next line ) was blocked by the "pfB_PRI1_v4" list. 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.

    @totalimpact Tailscale 1.54.0 is 2+ years out of date. Tailscale has made quite a number of changes since Tailscale 1.54.0, likely rendering it incompatible with their servers. I would consider manually updating the Tailscale FreeBSD package. FreshPorts does not maintain an archive of all the releases, only the latest compiled by the volunteer maintainers. The key to manually upgrading is knowing which FreeBSD version your pfSense release is running, i.e. 14 or 15. You can following along here.

    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?

    There is a package in developement that adds the freenas features to pfSense but expect to not see it that soon as it needs some codebits that are currently only available in the HEAD codetree. Printsharing is not planned/developed currently.

    1.  Thanks, I'll fix this shortly 2.  Tinydns status page is for LB/Failover (DNS) 3.  TinyDNS will not start until you configure atleast one item on the settings page and click save 4.  Not sure about DNS Forwarders, that was done by someone else.  Patches accepted. 5.  See #4 6.  I will look into it EDIT: looks like someone forgot to finish their code (not me): /* NEED TO FIX there are 2 logs /etc/tinydns/log/main/current and /etc/dnscache/log/main/current */ $tinydnslogs = cat /etc/tinydns/log/main/current | /usr/local/bin/tai64nlocal | php -f /usr/local/pkg/tinydns_parse_logs.php | grep -v ":0"; /* NEED TO FIX */ if ($_POST['clear']) { // exec("rm /etc/tinydns/log/main/current"); // exec("touch /etc/tinydns/log/main/current"); }

    I connected the previously unplugged WAN interface to the network and now I have zero spamd-setup lines in /etc/crontab.  spamd seems to be running Ok. Hm.  I guess the lesson is always to have the WAN interface up when configuring anything.

    One doubt. In file /etc/inc/filter.inc and the code: if (is_package_installed('squid') && file_exists('/usr/local/pkg/squid.inc')) { require_once('squid.inc'); $natrules .= squid_generate_rules('nat'); } Whats happys if the file squid.inc is empty? the function squid_generate_rules('nat') will not work. I have install squid and disconnected WAN interface of the Internet, reboot. During the boot, I see this error and nothing work again.

    Just to clarify, you have two network cards operating on those networks, Lan, and lan2-opt1 correct?  I will also throw in that before the major revision to the squid package it was binding to 127.0.0.1, I don't know if that is the case now.

    That was totally over my head… I've been using pfsense for some time now, but anything outside of the normal interface is beyond me. I would really like to have upnp set up and working but it isn't critical. If you have any other simple or very detailed ideas they are more then welcome I would be more then happy to try them...

    …nearly there... [Downloading and Installing the Developers ISO went fine. I'd no idea that, on initial boots, downloading all the Source, etc, takes very many hours, and MAKE INDEX takes an hour or 2 also!! I made one possibly nasty error with GREP, as noted in another thread] Anyway, on the MAKE INSTALL, it downloads the sources, and compiles, and flashes up a massive amount of progress messages, but ends with: "Error Code 1". Whatever that means… Dang. The associated messages suggest running   - make deinstall && make reinstall, or   - setting FORCE_PKG_REGISTER in the Env, or   - setting this in the make install command-line. Any advice welcome. Perhaps just "make install FORCE_PKG_REGISTER", but I don't want to make things worse! Separate interesting point:   - BandWidthD DID create the INDEX files when I ran it for the first time. Looked only beautiful!   - BUT... next time around, which was only a few minutes later (default config parms, generally), the INDEX.HTML was set to a size of 0, and the other 3 INDEX files were still OK (not refreshed yet).   - Then, 1 hour later, the INDEX2.HTML file was set to 0. The other 2 were still OK.   - presumably, when its time to refresh the others, they'll be duly clobbered.   - I believe I did not do anything very major with the entire system, apart from installing Midnight-Commander. I dearly hope this info rings a bell with someone... I doubt if tweaking the code will readily identify why the code sometimes creates the files, and sometimes does not... I could try removing BandWidthD, clearing out the files, and re-installing, etc... Thanks again...   - Mike

    cd /var/db/pkg && pkg_delete -r ls | grep mc In the course of experimenting with getting MC running, I ran the above command, but ended it with "GREP M" (instead of "GREP MC"!) I may have deleted other M* packages! I would greatly appreciate if anyone could post a list of all the "M*" entries in /var/db/pkg (if any!), in the standard Developers edition. Thank you.   - Mike
