    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.

    @GPz1100 I ran into this same exact issue. I don't have the Prefer IPv4 over IPv6 box checked, but I do have IPv6 enabled. I think the real issue is that Let's Encrypt's server seems to respond with "Recv failure: Connection reset by peer" on almost every request when using IPv6. I tested this by using the command curl -v https://acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory from pfsense's shell. To work around it, I modified the ACME script as you described. In the file /usr/local/pkg/acme/acme.sh, I updated line 1887 from: _ACME_CURL="curl --silent --dump-header $HTTP_HEADER " to: _ACME_CURL="curl -4 --silent --dump-header $HTTP_HEADER " After forcing curl to use IPv4, both certificate registration and renewal from the acme package started working again without issue.

    @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.

    This could help you: https://github.com/bsdperimeter/pfsense-packages/blob/master/config/squidGuard/sgerror.php This part displayes an IE error page: # ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ # IE displayed self-page, if them size > 1024 # ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ function get_error_page($er_code_id, $err_msg='') {         global $err_code;         global $cl;         global $g;         global $config;         $str = Array();         header("HTTP/1.1 " . $err_code[$er_code_id]);         $str[] = '';         $str[] = ''; if ($config['installedpackages']['squidguarddefault']['config'][0]['deniedmessage']) { $str[] = " ### {$config['installedpackages']['squidguarddefault']['config'][0]['deniedmessage']}: {$err_code[$er_code_id]} "; } else { $str[] = " ### Request denied by {$g['product_name']} proxy: {$err_code[$er_code_id]} "; }         if ($err_msg) $str[] = " **Reason:** $err_msg";         $str[] = ' * * * ';         if ($cl['a']) $str[] = " **Client address:** {$cl['a']} ";         if ($cl['n']) $str[] = " **Client name:** {$cl['n']} ";         if ($cl['i']) $str[] = " **Client user:** {$cl['i']} ";         if ($cl['s']) $str[] = " **Client group:** {$cl['s']} ";         if ($cl['t']) $str[] = " **Target group:** {$cl['t']} ";         if ($cl['u']) $str[] = " **URL:** {$cl['u']} ";         $str[] = ' * * * ';         $str[] = "";         $str[] = "";         return implode("\n", $str); } You can replce the part above with your page. Install squidguard, modify this file (sgerror.php) and re-save and re-apply squidguard. Redirect mode for me is: int error page (enter error message) Redirect is for me "Your are not allowed to watch the following URL" I am using squid in transparent mode - but it is working with int error page - even if the description says it's not possible. My custom page looks like the attached. [image: SquidGuard.jpg] [image: SquidGuard.jpg_thumb]

    Snort listens on network interface(s). It doesn't matter if they're bridged, routed, NATed, or just a span port from a switch that isn't involved in moving/filtering the traffic of the network at all. It's all the same.

    So, sorry! I am only able to answer now…  ;D Log rotation is set under Squid (i.e. Proxy Server). Go to Services->Proxy Server->General->Log rotate.

    Squid 3.2 isn't ported yet to freebsd/pfsense. As soon it's ported, we can create the package.

    Facebook can be reached via httpS and this will not be filtered by a transparent running squid proxy ans so squidguard cannot detect this traffic.

    That's a fair call, thanks for replying. I tried the patches they had on their site with little success after compiling snort from source on a *nix build. That being said I'm in the same boat as you, very little time to spare and need to come up with a proof of concept to protect SCADA networks/devices. Would i be able to get a copy of the 'private' or 'deprecated' build to prepare a paper? Just need to do a real basic inside/outside design to show mitigation strategies.. Its either that or i look at getting an ASA with the SCADA rules.  :-\ Specifically interested in the Ethernet/IP and CIP rules/attacks Thanks again for your time

    @Gloom: Probably a silly question but you've not got them both active on the same interface have you? No: BGP was running on the WAN interface, RIP on the LAN one. I've also tried to customize the /etc/gateways file with no luck: now I'm unable to supply the ones I've tested with.
