    @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.

    @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.

    @fjmp24 said in Notification: UPS ups battery is low: If I remove ignorelb directive, my UPS shuts down after 16 seconds This means your UPS is signaling a low battery. Either your battery is bad, or your UPS is bad. Most likely battery, but you never know. I suggest reaching out to Eaton support.

    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

    Not sure if you figured it out already since this post is a few days old, but I think you need to do two things: Remove your "Default Backend" entry (if you have a default entry, everything will be sent to that backend, regardless of the ACL you defined above) For the "Use Backend" action, you wanna populate the "Condition Acl Name" field or else the action wont match. So in your case, set the "condition acl name" to "LookingGlass" (the name you gave your "Host Matches:" ACL) You now should get a 503 error for all other requests until you define another acl that matches the host name and send that to the same (or a different) backend via another "Use Backend" action entry. Hope this helps. Still a beginner with ha proxy so not sure if this is the way to go, but for me in a similar situation that was what I had to do.

    @jonathanlee Thank you for the insight and pointing out my miss configuration. I didn’t see it till you said something. Where I had loop back 127.0.0.1 I should’ve had IOTWiFi addresses. I used the net gate recipes for redirecting DNS and applied it to NTP. Have a good weekend

    The security issues here would be somewhat less of a problem if OpenVPN didn't store the client certificate's private key in plain text in the config file A possible modification to the OP's suggestion based on some responses here: an option to email the client config file as an encrypted, passworded zip file. After that it is on the VPN admin to ensure that the encrypted zip file's password is communicated by an alternative communications method.

    @toyinal said in Captive Portal takes 1 hr to start: Unfortunately reinstalling will be the last resort since it’s the production system Re installing ? You're using pfSense - not some "Windows 10" PC ;) All settings are in one file, the file you backup every day (do you ?). If the system fails - as hardware does all the time, you can get back online in minutes. Because : you import one file, and all is back to normal. This makes settings testing with default settings so easy. It also validates your backup and urgency plan. @toyinal said in Captive Portal takes 1 hr to start: but less number of Ethernet ports What happens when you disable all non needed ports ? Without having any details, so I just presume, it's a hardware issue. I know it can boot normally, as you and I use the same software. The difference is : hardware drivers for the NIC's involved and settings.

    @jc1976 said in SSL_ERROR_INTERNAL_ERROR_ALERT: I saw some mention changing "Global Logging/Blocking Mode" from dnsbl webserver/vip to either no logging or no global mode, but none of that worked. Chose one of the "Null Block" option, I advise the (logging) one so you have the stats. "DNSBL server" is nice on paper, but only works (well) for non https requests, that is : old fashioned http requests. The thing is : these don't exist any more. Example : You have blacklisted "www.verisign.com" and you try to visit it. Your browser connects to the IP it got back from pfSense, and the web server at that IP has to send a certificate that says "Hi, I'm the certificate verisign.com". But that didn't happen. The IP your browser obtained was : [image: 1641378309799-939c8a03-dc36-488b-9fef-4c812acc2219-image.png] and this we server send a auto signed, non trusted cert that says : "(I'm not verisign)". Your browser then 'should) tells you : something went terribly wrong. And it will NOT ( of course not) show you the page. Browser love to show messages like SSL_ERROR_INTERNAL_ERROR_ALERT because something (some one) tries to break SSL. That's bad. You should disregard the usage of the DNSBL web server proposed by pfBlockerNG, as it was a good idea in the past, it's unusable these days.

    @gertjan On newer Android versions it is required to have a valid SSL Cert for the Radius service, therefore we use the LE Cert. Yes, if I manually remove the "DST Root CA X3" from the Freeradius server cert, everything works.
