    Hi, I had a problem with my home network today, so I checked pfsense and discovered that suricata had blocked the wan ip. After some tests and triggering some suricata alerts, the wan ip was blocked. I restarted pfsense and ran some more tests, but the problem no longer occurred. I then checked the wan interface settings and indeed the ip list does not include the wan ip, both now that it's working and before, when it was blocked. I'm using pfsense 2.8.0 and suricata 7.0.8_2. I use PPPoE to access the Internet.

    @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.

    @LowKnee Just out of curiosity are you referring to the Database Sanity Check reporting that "these two counts should match" it the count is off by 1 (which I suspect is your case) there was a fix (manual code change) to change masterfile to mastercat in pfblolckerng.sh you want to change this change the line from s1="$(grep -cv ^${ip_placeholder2}$ ${masterfile})" to s1="$(grep -cv ^${ip_placeholder2}$ ${mastercat})" There is also an edge case if the count is greater than one, here is how that goes if in the deny directory you have say two flies (because of the list / file selection you have and they have repeat addresses file 1 has say 100 lines file 2 has say 10 lines (but those 10 lines are also in file 1, file 2 is a subset) you get two uniquely named deny files and then when the "count" is calculated on the deny directory it sees 110 entries when the "count:" is calculated on the "mastercat" file it only contains 100 entries the count doesn't match in my case the issue was caused by full list I had selected, also having an available subset lists (I had inadvertently selected one of) this causing two deny files with some of the same (overlapping data) I unselected the subset and bingo matched again, was a "my bad" selection. Edit: this applied to 25.07 (and 25.07.1) and pfblockerng 3.2.7 as it is labelled on those versions of pfSense

    @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.

    @provels said in updating to acme 1.0 breaks system beyond repair: need to restore from backup: This same mess happened to me, even w/o Acme, going from 25.07 to *.1. Blew, reinstalled w/ Crowdsec, blew again, reinstalled, clipped all the Crowdsec info from config.xml, restored config, back to normal. Crowdsec is a great concept, but I think I'm out. I never had this issue with Crowdec before the ACME update, even with updating from 2.7 to 2.8 there was no issues. In fact after restoring from a backup after the ACME update, Crowdsec reinstalled just fine, and this was before the recent release a couple days ago that contained a fix.

    Couple other problems on newer builds. With 2.0-BETA5 (i386) built on Sat Jan 29 23:42:13 using Firefox 3.6 1. The link problem discussed in http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,15193.0.html still exists. The problem appears to be in the html here: [![](/themes/pfsense/images/transparent.gif)](index.php) Where **index.php** resolves to href="https://[machine IP]/**packages/tftp/**index.php" 2\. Clicking on a file never brings up a dialog to download it as stated in the page instructions.

    If you encounter any e-mail problem and you want to fix hotmail problems like that, perhaps you can get a good software. There are many available software on the Internet. Some of them you can even download for free.

    For that you need a reverse proxy. Something like the Apache mod_securty package would do it (Look under System > Packages)

    @Perry: A solution has been added to pfSense 2.0 to solve the state problem though it doesn't cover all situation with voip it would be great if you could test and report back. As the solution isn't working for me I will probably add a CASS for pfSense 2.0 at some point. thx for making that clear to me. i will do so in the next week or the week after :) just in case i would like to use the CASS script manually (/usr/local/pkg/Fit123/CASS.sh) for 2.0. could i simply run it on 2.0 without bigger problems? as far as i understand its simply executed by cron to run every minute, right?

    I have the same setup as you, Load Balancer with dual WANs.  I also use IMspector, but all of my users are running Pidgin. You probably could get one of the daily snapshots to run with pfSense, but I would be afraid to do that in a production environment. You should setup a test firewall, install IMspector, and copy over one of the daily snapshots to the firewall through SSH. Otherwise, only support Pidgin, or previous versions of Messenger.  :'(

    Its not impossible, but you will not be able to get this to work with squid in transparent mode.  If your clients have proxy settings in place then squid will be able to see the SSL connections and you'll be able to log them.

    The zabbix server is meant to run on its own device.  There is not a zabbix server package for pfSense.

    That isn't related to the original problem on this thread, if you start a new thread with more information someone may be able to help. Search the forum before you do, I just answered that same question for someone in the last week.
