    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.

    For me I might have fixed (without kinda complicated solution which I could find). Since it worked when I did an restart in the UI, and that the tailscale service in pfsense was actually running, I came to the conclusion, that maybe some other tailscale service was started at boot, so I tried below. I tried to reboot it after, and tailscale came up just fine. I haven't tested it further though. LIke power it down completely, or do multiple reboots. /usr/local/etc/rc.d/pfsense_tailscaled enable /usr/local/etc/rc.d/tailscaled disable

    @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.

    Correct - you need to setup a Cache Manager password and the relevant ACL's. Have a look at http://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/CacheManager#Cache_manager_access_from_squidclient for details on how to setup the Cache Manager ACLs.

    I m using 1.2.3 Installed IP Ranges, seems to work fine , then it start behaving strange … range collapsing etc (I was trying to define a 10.0 range minus 3 subnet of 256 hosts, maybe I was doing wrong) so I re installed the package (without removing it) That broke the config file, could not do anything in the https or at the console. I reinstalled and start from scratch again (its a new setup anyway)

    Block traffic to the squid port from hosts on that subnet. You may need to disable the anti-lockout rule for that to have any effect.

    thanks for the reply. unfortunately a fresh install is not an option since our proxy needs to be up 24/7 so serve 100+ client machines (large hospital). do you think there might be another way to edit a (xml?) file to simply include the missing lines (refer your attached screenshot). regards.

    Hi Bernard, You may want to post your question here http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,25732.0.html TB watches this thread and is very responsive to questions and issues. It is the main CB thread. I dont think he implemented the ability to have the username info blank. I think all fields for the most part need data. I could be wrong.
