    @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.

    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 ?

    @luckman212, Thanks for your suggestion. I will check what I have in /usr/local/pkg/tailscale/state, and also the RAM disk settings others have brought up. I could learn more about where Tailscale and pfSense store system files. If I find anything worth sharing, I will let you know.

    @LaUs3r Yeah, I added those IPs, but after restarting pfSense, the WireGuard status says “handshake failed.” Also, when I do nslookup us-bos.prod.surfshark.com, I get two different sets of IPs. For example: • The first time I get 43.225.189.108 and 43.225.189.118 • The next time I get 149.40.50.216 and 149.40.50.290 So I was wondering can I add both sets of IPs, and put a “0” at the end of each, and use /24 for both IPs? I reached out to Surfshark support, and they sent me their official pfSense WireGuard setup guide see the guide here in the guide they mention 10.14.0.2 for static routes

    BIND/Avahi/radiusd packages missing from 2.6.0?

    @johnpoz - both of those packages appear to now be in the "available packages" list. Seems odd that for a couple hours they (BIND/Avahi) were 'missing' from the list, but hours later appear. Following the commentary from posts about "install from scratch" (using the copy config.xml to USB for restore) - only impact was where those two packages were absolutely required. Interesting on the naming aspect. Under 2.5.2, made sure that all the packages had been on the latest version, prior to upgrade. Not sure if that artifact is useful. While a bit off topic - where BIND/Avahi weren't required, the process was flawless and (as others have noted) there appears to be a sense of increased performance. (Hats off to folks responsible) Thanks!

    The end result (that wouldn't involve recompiling my own kernel/drivers etc) was to simply change the VID/PID in the display from the out of box settings of 0x1b3d/0x0155 to the FTDI defaults of 0x0403/0x6001. You can do this with "FT_Prog" on another computer running Windows or you can do it with another computer using "ft232r_prog" on Ubuntu Linux..... sudo ./ft232r_prog --old-vid 0x1b3d --old-pid 0x0155 --new-vid 0x0403 --new-pid 0x6001 ft232r_prog: version 1.25, by Mark Lord. eeprom_size = 128 vendor_id = 0x1b3d product_id = 0x0155 self_powered = 0 remote_wakeup = 0 suspend_pull_downs = 0 max_bus_power = 500 mA manufacturer = MO product = LK202-25-USB serialnum = 01wwkXXX high_current_io = 0 load_d2xx_driver = 0 txd_inverted = 0 rxd_inverted = 0 rts_inverted = 0 cts_inverted = 0 dtr_inverted = 0 dsr_inverted = 0 dcd_inverted = 0 ri_inverted = 0 cbus[0] = TxDEN cbus[1] = TxDEN cbus[2] = TxDEN cbus[3] = PwrEn cbus[4] = TxDEN Rewriting eeprom with new contents. /tmp/MO/ft232r_prog-1.25$ sudo ./ft232r_prog --save MO-lk202-25.dump ft232r_prog: version 1.25, by Mark Lord. MO-lk202-25.dump: wrote 128 bytes eeprom_size = 128 vendor_id = 0x0403 <---- IT'S DIFFERENT NOW product_id = 0x6001 <---- AND THIS IS TOO self_powered = 0 remote_wakeup = 0 suspend_pull_downs = 0 max_bus_power = 500 mA manufacturer = MO product = LK202-25-USB serialnum = 01wwkXXX high_current_io = 0 load_d2xx_driver = 0 txd_inverted = 0 rxd_inverted = 0 rts_inverted = 0 cts_inverted = 0 dtr_inverted = 0 dsr_inverted = 0 dcd_inverted = 0 ri_inverted = 0 cbus[0] = TxDEN cbus[1] = TxDEN cbus[2] = TxDEN cbus[3] = PwrEn cbus[4] = TxDEN No change from existing eeprom contents. Once that's done, you can plug it back in to pfsense and the driver will pick it up and ugen will do it's thing etc.... You'll finally end up with all of the /dev/cuaU0 /dev/cuaU0.init /dev/cuaU0.lock things that you need in /dev/ that you can then use to point the webUI/lcdproc towards.

    Typically I believe the Netgate team expects a pull request against the appropriate GitHub repository. For packages, that would be ../pfsense/FreeBSD-ports available here: https://github.com/pfsense/FreeBSD-ports. There are some specific requirements in order for packages to work within the pfSense ecosystem. You can look over some of the packages to see what those are. GUI packages will start with the string "pfSense-pkg-*". Any underlying binary component is assumed to exist within the regular Ports tree of FreeBSD.

    @robert_knabe As far as I know, no one is complaining about the small file size handling capability of pfSense. The RRD files will still fit into the confiig file, and if logs are important (they are for me) an external syslogger shiould be used. But, why not, if you want, you can modify the php.ini file, as that's the way to change memory available to PHP. Two options : Write a small shell script that modifies the memory_limit if it doesn't contain the right value for you. Have this script started with the startcmd pfSense package. Use commands like 'sed' to replace a text in the file. You probably have to restart the PHP-FPM to take the new setting in account. Or, edit the php.ini file, and keep the old one. Create a diff file from these two files. Use the diff file and the pfSense patch package to patch the existing php.ini file. You will still have to restart php-fpm to have the modification taken in account. Both solutions will persist even after a pfSense upgrade. You could add a feature request, just keep in mind that it would be granted only if a lot of people are asking for it.

    @steveits Thanks again! Yes, if I configure System -> Updates to stay at 2.5.2 (DEPRECATED) I do not see any available updates for my apps. But when I change to 2.6.0 I see updates for some of the apps. Still not for all, but this should be not an issue as they will run anyways- because there is no red sign then. Ok, I think I got it! Thanks a lot! /KNEBB

    @nogbadthebad Correct. Supermicro IPMI. Most of my searches found people having issues getting authentication working with Supermicro. My issue is that all other devices that use RADIUS for authentication are all working (UPS’s, Supermicro IPMI, TrippLite PDU). It’s just the pfSense itself.
