    We installed haproxy on Netgate 8200 device 25.07.1-RELEASE (amd64) installed acme certificates and get certificate from letsencrypt, everything ok. checked ssl offload in frontend and selected the acme generated certificate under SSL Offloading. result after Apply Changes: Errors found while starting haproxy [NOTICE] (72045) : haproxy version is 2.9.14-7c591d5 [NOTICE] (72045) : path to executable is /usr/local/sbin/haproxy [ALERT] (72045) : config : Couldn't open the ca-file '/var/etc/haproxy_test/clientca_WAN_117.pem' (No such file or directory).

    @Greyhat I think it's useful to work with what we've got and figure something out for the (i hope) edge cases later. So for the JSON I figured you can actually use an existing suricata integration by co-opting their pipelines.

    @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 Most probaly a configuration regression. You really need to dig deeper. From which pf version did you upgrade? Have you tried removing and reinstalling pfblockerng? Looking to the moon for craters with naked eye doesn't show the one that the crashed spaceship created. Use a telescope instead. FWIW, I see quite a few pfblockerng instances on 25.07.1 running with no (apparent) issues τοο

    @netboy do you have this docker available - this is actually pretty slick. I didn't think about monitoring the one connected to my nas.. It monitors it for shutdown of the nas, but it be nice to see such info off of it. I have one behind my tv I monitor with pi I have connected, that is my ntp server as well. I keep meaning to put another pi I have for the one in my av cab to monitor that one - just haven't gotten around to it. I have 4 total in the house of the cyberpower ones.. Be nice to throw them all into 1 place to monitor.. One I monitor on my pc, with misc network gear plugged into that, one my nas monitors for its own use, pretty sure the pfsense is on that ups along with my APs I think - but didn't think of turning on its server function and point pfsense to it. You have inspired me to to a better job of monitoring mine.. Mine are all cyber power 1500s, would have to double check models but I know at least 2 of them are the cCP1500PFCLCD I think your docker would be perfect for my use as well.

    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 ?

    @Vad-B Interesting indeed! I just tried to fill the Pre-authentication Key with file:/dev/null. I get an crash in pfsense after some time, but when I login again is saved. For me this for after service restarts at least this solves it, including the issue with the routes not being advertised even set in the WebUI. Havent done an full restart of pfsense (yet)

    I feel like I’ve followed every guide there was. I was able to get nordvpn via wireguard on my pfsense but for the life of me I can’t get my own wireguard server working. I can’t even get a handshake. I have all the firewall rules mentioned, the gateway, interfaces. Etc. I got no clue what to do at this point. Can anyone please help? I’ll provide any information required I just don’t even know where to start I’ve tried every YouTube video possible and guide it’s strange. I was able to get nordvpn working but I can’t get my own.

    @cthurner: Hello, thanx for your reply. I have used the radtest tool on the command line to test the OTP authentication as described here https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/FreeRADIUS_2.x_package. As password I have used the OTP that has been created by DroidOTP on my Android phone. I don't think I have mistyped anything. Furthermore I have compared the otpverify.sh from http://motp.sourceforge.net/bash/otpverify.sh with the version provided by the freeradius2 package. The original script uses "OTP=printf $EPOCHTIME$SECRET$PIN|checksum|cut -b 1-6" (in line 104) whereas the freeradius version uses "OTP=printf $EPOCHTIME$SECRET$PIN|checksum|cut -b 6". In my understanding the second version is wrong, as it only uses the 6th character instead of the first 6 characters. Therefore any authentication request via radius will be rejected. With my modifaction it works. So I think this is indeed a bug. CU Christian I try to explain it again for you. On the GUI YOU probably typed: 6 This is "wrong" because it only uses character 6 (just one character) On the GUI you MUST type: 1-6 This uses characters 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

    TCP does not have a notion of a "request". TCP is just a binary stream of data, like a file stream. What you would need is a reverse proxy that could forward based on mysql protocol. My guess is this has not been done as it sounds like there is a better way to handle this, but I could be wrong. Hopefully someone can help you with if this can be done.

    If your WAN IP is public, DynDNS will let you reach it. If your WAN IP is private and you control your modem/router ahead of you, then set it to pass the traffic into your pfSense (e.g. port forward, "DMZ", etc) and you can still use DynDNS. If your WAN IP is private and your ISP is performing Carrier-Grade NAT then in all likelihood you have no way to receive inbound traffic for remote management. If you have another location that has a public address, you could do a site-to-site tunnel to there, and then have a remote access VPN connect to that and hop across a site-to-site VPN to reach the router that's stuck behind NAT.

    @percyiii: fetch -o /usr/pbi/dansguardian-amd64/sbin/dansguardian "http://e-sac.siteseguro.ws/pfsense/8/amd64/dansguardian" save one of the dansguardian pages.. check make sure it started… check make sure the web ulpload is now working Now the how-to had fetch to e-sac.siteseguro.ws going into /usr/local/sbin /usr/local/sbin is symlinked to /usr/pbi/dansguardian-amd64/.sbin/dansguardian But the only way I could get it to work was to fetch to /usr/pbi/dansguardian-amd64/sbin not .sbin.. Does Dans use both executables? Whick one runs? I fetch to  /usr/pbi/dansguardian-amd64/sbin  which seems to work fine for me.

    In the menu, look at Services - proxy filter.  From there, use Times to create your schedule.  Then go to Groups ACL to create groups of IP addresses and what they are allowed to access, and link them to the schedule.

    @BBcan177: I would suggest that you block all outgoing LAN DNS requests unless they are originating from your DNS Server(s) or pfSense DNS apps. This is a very effective way to handle the potential issue.  Restrict all LAN DNS traffic to just your internal DNS server (or servers), then further restrict outbound DNS (on WAN) to designated forwarders. There are some DNS policy rules in the Emerging Threats family that can help as well, but in my view the easiest method is restricting outbound DNS to only authorized hosts. Bill

    I'm no expert either.  I just try to help people if I can. To get to the log, first login to the shell (option 8 in the pfSense text menu). From there, go to /var/log and look for squidGuard.log.  Maybe take a look at the system.log while you're at it. I can't even begin to tell you what to look for other than obvious errors.

    1.2.3 is no longer supported. Squid+SquidGuard on NanoBSD on 1.2.3 even less so. There could be some remnant of a past installation somewhere on the drive in /usr/local/pkg/ or in the config.xml that needs cleaned out. Not enough info to say, but you should really be running the latest version (2.1.x) and not 1.2.x.

    Updated to pkg 2.2.5 yesterday, Squid refuses to start. However the error message has changed, it is now : php: /status_services.php: The command '/usr/local/etc/rc.d/squid.sh stop' returned exit code '1', the output was '2014/06/10 13:23:33| parse_peer: token='round-robinssl' FATAL: Bungled /usr/pbi/squid-i386/etc/squid/squid.conf line 98: cache_peer 10.0.0.10 parent 443 0 proxy-only no-query no-digest originserver login=PASSTHRU round-robinssl sslflags=DONT_VERIFY_PEER front-end-https=auto name=rvp_exchange Squid Cache (Version 3.3.10): Terminated abnormally.

Can I delete this line ? I could not find any point in the GUI pointing to this retired server and I have never configured a chache_peer. Thank you for your hints cheers thafener
