    @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?

    Kinda reviving this thread but is it possible de choose what rules should trigger a block ? Right now it seems by default every single alert creates a block which means there is ALOT of false positives so activating the auto block is just suicide. It also seems impossible to edit the basic rules for http_inspecter and ftp because they get overwritten each time you restart the service, you can add stuff in the configuration form but you can't edit section that are already in the default conf. (thinking about the "http_inspect: NON-RFC DEFINED CHAR" that alot of people are getting) Thanks !

    I think its isolated to denyhosts it self. I would bet there may be something available on the denyhosts forums. Sorry I don't have an answer but its not the denyhosts package that is causing this.

    I've been using the CIDR notation, even tried with & without, seems to basically just ignore what I put in the whitelist. I'm going to try to edit the Threshold file to ignore my IP: suppress gen_id 0, sig_id 0, track by_src, ip {my_ip} I'll post my results EDIT: Checked the logs today, looks like that made the difference.  I can turn back on my blocking now!

    Yep I lost my settings when I upgraded, too. It was no biggie tho because I had installed the Notes package and documented the SNORT config there.  Really tho the only thing worth documenting is the SNORT code. Speaking for myself, LOVE the new SNORT GUI enhancements…a positive step in the right direction, to be sure. Pretty sure I tossed JamesDean some $$ for his efforts...

    SquidGuard won't block spam.  For that you'll need something like a mail server with SpamAssassin. As for hardware spec - take a look at the recommended hardware list found from the front page of the pfSense main site.  What you'll require will depend entirely on your situation, which you've said nothing about.  Key points will include: Peak bandwidth (upload and download) Peak packets per second (upload and download) Number of users Type of typical web browsing activity Peak email rate Peak email size A little bit of searching in the hardware forum will show you a few dozens of threads on the subject.

    Not in 1.2.3 Aliases are part of the pf package and are not read by Squid.  Also, squid and its redirects occur BEFORE the firewall rules are applied.
