    @johnpoz said in Please help to configure HAProxy to serve certifficate on internal LAN too: Yeah - what part do you not understand if you always resolve nextcloud.domain.tld so that it hits your haproxy on your pfsense wan IP are you not getting? You have 2 options - use a different domain internally and always go to nextcloud.publicdomain.tld, or use the same domain internally as external and run into the problem of what IP it resolves to.. Change your local domain to say home.arpa or .internal or atleast something different than the public domain your using to point to pfsense wan IP on the public internet. You are shooting yourself in the foot trying to use the same domain externally as internally. There are ways around it, but they complicate the setup. For example you might be able to use views in unbound as one way to work around the problem. You could use only host entries for all your resources. But then again you run into a problem of using the fqdn for this service, now always pointing to your wan IP.. And that is great when you want to access the service haproxy is doing - but if you want to access that resource on some other service that haproxy doesn't handle - like say simple file sharing.. You are going to have problems. Since you clearly do not understand how any of this works - the simple solution is change the local domain you are using so it is not the same as the public domain you want to use to get to your nextcloud. This tone is outrageous directed at somebody who acknowledged right off the rip that English is not their first language. How many languages do you speak, John? And safely assuming it's only one—English of course—take it from a fellow English native that you'd do well to say more with less words. You otherwise were directing OP in the right direction in my opinion.

    @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.

    @netboy said in is something wrong with pfBlockerNG?: After my post, I "changed" DNSBL -> DNSBL mode from "unbound python mode" to "unbound mode" and so far i have no issues. Terrible idea. Moving backwards in development history there.

    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 ?

    @ammar177 Using pfBlockerNG. Create an alias of ASNs you want to block (netflix,hulu,peacock,etc..). Apply that alias to the IPs that should be blocked. There isnt a clean way to block streaming sites on pfsense. Snort openapp.id rules have not been updated in some time (over 5 years) so they will not account for the latest streaming sites. You will need to write your own rules for that. If you are looking to block streaming media sites on a phone its probably best to point that client to openDNS or NextDNS where you can do category-based blocking and not use pfSense for DNS. That's the best recommendation i can give.

    There’s nothing more expensive about providing a wildcard. But, if they were the same price nobody would buy a single domain certificate, because it would be simpler and as cheap to buy the wildcard. People who provide certificates have invested time and money to be in that club. Therefore they want to get back as much as they can from selling them. People are willing to pay more for wildcards so they are charged more. It’s just ordinary economics.

    If you added a patch manually and that fix is included in the new release, then just delete the entry from the package without touching it. If you revert a patch after upgrading you undo the fix and put back the bad code. Manual patch entries are never automatically removed. Only the "recommended" list changes automatically by version.

If you like to look here too: https://lcdstore.de/CF635TMFKU Cool after installing the Power and reset button in/on the APU I would assume that could be the next "project" or perhaps later if the Bluetooth serial port is ready installed.

    @SteveITS said in [Solved] pfSense-pkg-System_Patches reinstallation failed!: @furom They’re working on something. There’s an open redmine from a couple years ago but I don’t have the URL handy. At least it blocks it now. Per my sig it was… worse. That is great. And fully agree, this is much to prefer over ruining your system, no doubt at all so with some more insight, only grateful it (as usual with pfSense) turned out well :)

    The service watchdog package is not smart. It only knows to run on a timer from cron, and it only knows to see if a process is running or not. So yes, race conditions are easily possible. Not just at boot but also during any deliberate stop/restart of a service, package ugprades, etc.
