    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.

    @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.

    Sorry, I still have no solution. My problem seems a bit different though, as the box is checked and I have no problem getting to the Internet. But I haven't tried to edit the config file, which one is it?

    Hardware monitoring. System temps via RRD and SMART status. Email notifications would be great too. Specially for smart status but for all of the above if possible.

    This exact problem has come to "bite" me again.  I'm setting up a second box (2.0 BETA4 from Aug 31, snort 1.34) on a larger network, and having the same problems with HOME_NET hosts being blocked.  My previous workaround was to create a whitelist of all the addrs in use on the network – that would work again except this is a larger network size and there appears to be a bug/limitation in the whitelist editing gui that only allows 298 hosts. Any ideas on how the actual problem here (HOME_NET hosts being blocked) could be fixed?  Secondly, any chance CIDR notation could be added to whitelists?  Or possibly changed to allow Firewall aliases to be members of whitelists. I'd really like to run snort in blocking mode, but it's completely unusable on all but a small (<298 hosts) network like this.

    I think it's bad idea, this will increase latency, decrease bandwidth, etc. I rather use pfsense for broadband bandwidth and have stand alone freenas to use LAN bandwidth without choking the pfsense server. Why don't you try Zentyal (formerly eBox) trust me you'll see serious performance penalty and run back to pfsense in 60 seconds flat.

    Try 2.0 first then to see if it works there. pfSense 2.0 is based off of FreeBSD 8.1, and has a different set of patches. Not sure if we include that one, but it's possible. If it works on 2.0, it's likely an OS issue and can't/won't be fixed on 1.2.x (unless you want to go through the trouble of making your own custom kernel…)

    Many thanks for the instructions..!!! I have manager to get both the Zabbix Agent and Proxy to work. For the record, my pfsense box serve as Internet Proxy Server for each branches and each branches are connected bye a leased line. So I am doing active monitoring at the moment, I might consider doing passive monitoring in the future if there is an effect on Leased Line Load to and from each branches. Best Regards, Pat

    The management interface status has never worked (And still doesn't) with shared key servers. Shared key clients are different as well. The status screen is mainly meant for PKI users.
