    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.

    @BBcan177 Thank you for the kind reminder; I am so accustomed to ensuring Save Settings is checked that I didn't follow your instructions properly (thanks @tinfoilmatt for uploading and highlighting the screen shot). I've properly followed the instructions and the update did not report and db problems. Thank you again! drac

    @agitelzon I have no issue connecting to LE servers from pf shell. The issue is cloudflare security setting is configured as a whitelist for api zone record changes. The whitelist includes my ipv4 address only, as a /32. As I mentioned, I could add the ipv6 prefix as a /64. Given that pf is configured to prefer ipv4, I thought that would carry over to acme as well.

    @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.

    Doh. I opened and closed my own case… Sorry for taking up the forum space!  Hopefully it helps another newbie out though. I realized that I needed to enable the DCE/RPC2 preprocessor to make those work. Sometimes I wonder where my brain goes...  :-[

    @kaptenhook: unbound in pfsense 2.0.1 (amd64) does not work, but service is enable and running, and when we check using http://dnssec-or-not.net/ it will get a "you are not using DNSSEC" Works fine for me. Make sure you are not using any redundant DNS servers that are not DNSSEC enabled.

    In /etc/rc, /var/log/ is wiped out, and the files are freshly made. One of many reasons the squid package keeps its logs separate. That behavior has changed (as of e8197e56f360f222d03de24f8b66fe5125123c30 on master) for the full install, but still wouldn't be recommended.

    Finally had time to re-boot today and now cron is working again. So, it looks like removing the cron package, just shuts down the service. Cheers.

    Hi, found the solution. add to squid custom options log_uses_indirect_client on;follow_x_forwarded_for allow localhost; and in dansguardian choose: General -> useforwardedfor if you have more subents using dansguardian and squid only listening to loop then add them to allowed subnets under access control in squid config tab. have a nice day!

    @tester_02: Squid 3.  Looks like a reverse proxy version of squid.  Does it run on normal cache mode? It runs on both modes. http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,44735.msg249094.html#msg249094 @tester_02: Does it work with squidguard? @tester_02: Varnish.  Does it run in transparent mode? Varnish is a http reverse proxy with caching, you point your dns record to it's ip and it does balance,fail over,reducer server load, etc. You can configure it to act as a proxy server but it's designed to reverse proxy, so AFAIK no transparent support for it. @tester_02: Does anyone have varnish/danguardian working nicely as a transparent proxy and filtering? I do as proxies only. Transparent proxy do only http filtering leaving https 'free'. A WPAD/PAC configuration is more secure this way.

    I would just keep going with squid3 and ditch the -reverse one.
