    Hello team, I have a Netgate 8200 running 24.11-RELEASE (amd64) with Suricata 7.0.8_5 package installed. Suricata doesn't seem to start. It loops to red once I press the Play button on the interface. It leaves no logs in the System logs, it leaves no logs in suricata.log at /var/log/suricata/suricata_ovpns933787/suricata.log I tried launching it manually: # /usr/local/bin/suricata -V or # /usr/local/bin/suricata -c /usr/local/etc/suricata/suricata_33787_ovpns9/suricata.yaml -i suricata_ovpns933787 and I get this output ld-elf.so.1: /usr/local/bin/suricata: Undefined symbol "__strlcpy_chk@FBSD_1.8" Thanks in advance, Dara

    @kabeda If memory serves, that old version of ntopng did not run as user ntopng, but as user nobody. There are lots of problems in that old version. Anyway, check the ownership and permissions of /var/db/ntopng and make sure it matches the user that ntopng runs as. You may need to set ownership of the entire hierarchy. Example: /usr/sbin/chown -R nobody:nobody /var/db/ntopng However, the better choice would be to upgrade to a more recent version.

    I am using the DNS-Update method I have to use a DNS-Sleep of 5 minutes to let the letsencrypt txt dns record update propagate. During this 5 minutes the acme-webgui times out. when the acme-webgui times out the Action list is NOT executed. How can I solve this ? Would it maybe be an idea to let the acme.sh script execute the actions in the action list as a post-hook instead of the web-gui? Or maybe add an option to add post-hooks in the webUI ?

    @elvisimprsntr Updated 25.07.1 to 1.90.6_1, copied and pasted from @elvisimprsntr's post: pkg add -f https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:15:amd64/latest/All/tailscale-1.90.6_1.pkg (Why it worked this time and not on previous updates: Over the last couple of days, I ran into the "Shared object "libutil.so.10, not found..." error that triggered the version 25.07.1 update issues some of us have been having. After I fixed that error, I decided to go back to the usual update method, and it worked.)

    @tinfoilmatt Thanks! I have done that and it worked when forcing just her TV out the Centurylink.. My problem is my local box here. Im missing something because I can not get it to pass traffic from the WAN to the Wireguard tunnel. Ive got some time today so will chip away on my lab setup to see if I can finally accomplish it here first.

    I think you have to announce only your prefixes. announce self Your ISP will send to you a default route point to them. Check this manual for each option: http://man.openbsd.org/bgpd.conf

    "Raw Config" is the best option. The Web Gui only works on simple environments.

    The names and content of the config files are incorrect. The description says you are using a USB cable and that the driver is "usbhid", however the config file shows driver "apcsmart" which is a serial port driver rather than a USB driver. The ups name does not match the configuration either. This isn't a configuration that the pfSense NUT package will produce. Are you editing config files by hand? To configure your UPS, please go to Services / UPS / UPS Settings in the UI.

    I think, after following various other threads on this issue, I MAY have fixed this. If I copy these two files to this location: cp /usr/pbi/syslog-ng-amd64/lib/libpopt.so.0 /usr/lib/ cp /usr/pbi/syslog-ng-amd64/lib/libcrpto.so.8 /usr/lib/ cp /usr/pbi/syslog-ng-amd64/lib/libintl.so.8 /usr/lib/ and then run: /usr/pbi/syslog-ng-amd64/local/sbin/logrotate /usr/local/etc/logrotate.conf it now completes with no errors.  Now, I haven't let this run overnight yet, and simply running the logrotate doesn't do anything because on the units I've tried it on, there has been nothing to rotate yet.  I should know for certain that things are rolling over by tomorrow…. 2.3.2 and syslog-ng logrotate did work for me without any funny business.  I did have to change the version in the file from my OP to 3.7 to get syslog-ng to even start, plus also change the search as indicated above. EDIT:  first two firewalls I checked this morning rotated files last night, and gzip worked, so it appears the above does work.

    @cciechad: I'm not getting how the UPS connected via USB is affected via the status or config of the WAN interface. Any ideas? It is normal for packages to be restarted when interfaces are restarted. Nothing to worry about.

    I am sorry to hear that you are having issues because of this upgrade. A lot of new features and TLS support are available on zabbix 3. Other people were waiting for this (including me): https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=106181 https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=111701 https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=102719 Possibliy an user using Zabbix 3: https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=115757 If it's not viable upgrade your zabbix server, I will suggest that you install zabbix 2 manually. (PM me or send an e-mail… I can help) Regards.

    Sometime during the life of pfsense 2.2, logrotate stopped working for syslog-ng.  Following my directions above, I am still able to get syslog-NG to start with no errors on pfsense 2.3.2, just changing the version to 3.7 instead of 3.5.  That said, does anyone know if logrotate is working correctly  for syslog-ng in pfsense 2.3.2?  I need to get systems of  of 2.1, but I have not been able to due to the issues with syslog-ng in 2.2.  Need to do syslog over TLS, and the standard pfsense install can't do that. EDIT: I found a way to get logrotate working for syslog-ng in pfsense 2.2.x: https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=95832.msg647653#msg647653

    "Can someone point me to the right direction?" Yeah update to a current supported version 2.0.2 really? 2.0.2 release date 2012-12-21 = No longer supported So you have 3000 users and your running freerad as a package on pfsense from 2012??  If you have that many users I would suggest you run current freerad on its own system..

    I think, before creating new topic you need to calm down, don't panic, do not to tear one's hair and read what  people are writing about released version and you will find out what is current workaround for your problem. https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=114871.105 or https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=115349.0
