    So I turned off SSL offloading. Since the acme/letsencrypt cert I made earlier is now being used by webConfiguator. I figured the two acme/letsencrypt and self signed certs may be clashing??? Basically I am now just trying to use HAproxy as a port redirect. Again my webConfiguator is set to listen on port 443 and backend on 10443. I thought this was baked into the whole front end listening on 443 and the backend set for 10443. This is being done entirely inside of my own LAN. Later I want to try SSL offload and front end listen on 443 then backend on 80 for my blueiris security cam web server that can not do SSL.

    @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.

    @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?

    It was "working" with the pfil ordering patch but the kernel became unstable and would panic every 3-4 minutes.  Not exactly something we want to roll out without additional work being put into it. I plan on talking to a few folks during BSDCan to see what we can do.

    It's not that big of a deal. It'll only happen if you: Use a hub - Seriously, nobody should ever be using hubs anymore unless they actually do want to see all traffic. Use VM's on the same segment - putting your firewall on a separate VM network should be feasible and fix this have your firewall on a SPAN port - don't do that.

    We are not focusing on bringing a sambaserver to pfSense, however there is a package under developement that will install freenas as a pfSense package. This package requires code from the HEAD codetree and is just like HEAD itself not anywhere near done yet. Don't ask for release dates for this, nobody knows yet, not even the devs.

    yes, OK, i have tested it , for the initial start of snort after a complete reset to pfsense all works fine and the log is full. If i changed anything, for example "wan to lan" and back, the snort package is a little bit confused. The Service is started, but nothing happens, no logs… If i went "nessus" against the wan interface, nothing happens again. I don´t know, i think the package is not really clean, but maybe my test was incorrect...

    even if perl is not installed, PHP is installed and can do almost everything perl can (not sure what modules are installed on PFsense though). So if there is a perl script for this, look at the code and try to convert it to PHP (some help can be found here: http://www.cs.wcupa.edu/rkline/perl2php/)

    Turning off the server portion will NOT stop the client.  The client continues to run to sync the local system time even if it is not serving clients.

    It's prepared to work with the next upcoming version. It's not ready yet. We had done some testing with dummynet last night and it started working so we prepared the package (and other dummynetitems) to be available when the next release is done. However it seems to have some issues still as there have been random kernel crashes. So it's not sure if dummynet will/can be supported soon so maybe this package (and dummynet) won't appear in the near future.
