    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.

    @Draco try to goto the General Tab, first ensure that the Keep Settings option is checked. Then unchecked Enable pfBlockerNG so that its disabled. Hit save. Force Update. Then reenable pfBlockerNG and Force update.

    @GPz1100 I ran into this same exact issue. I don't have the Prefer IPv4 over IPv6 box checked, but I do have IPv6 enabled. I think the real issue is that Let's Encrypt's server seems to respond with "Recv failure: Connection reset by peer" on almost every request when using IPv6. I tested this by using the command curl -v https://acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory from pfsense's shell. To work around it, I modified the ACME script as you described. In the file /usr/local/pkg/acme/acme.sh, I updated line 1887 from: _ACME_CURL="curl --silent --dump-header $HTTP_HEADER " to: _ACME_CURL="curl -4 --silent --dump-header $HTTP_HEADER " After forcing curl to use IPv4, both certificate registration and renewal from the acme package started working again without issue.

    @elvisimprsntr Updated 25.07.1 to 1.90.6_1, copied and pasted from @elvisimprsntr's post: pkg add -f https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:15:amd64/latest/All/tailscale-1.90.6_1.pkg (Why it worked this time and not on previous updates: Over the last couple of days, I ran into the "Shared object "libutil.so.10, not found..." error that triggered the version 25.07.1 update issues some of us have been having. After I fixed that error, I decided to go back to the usual update method, and it worked.)

    @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.

    And when I add the lines to squid so it caches windows and avg updates the cpu goes into 100% as soon as I restart squid. Clean the lines out and restart squid and cpu drops back to normal.

    To show all block ips in the terminal. pfctl -t snort2c -Ts @sam_son: I wondered if there was a way to display the snort logs from the command line. I have the pfsense on a kvm so I can view the screen locally rather than ssh. From looking at the snort package advanced tab it says about tcpdump logs. Could I view somthing similar to pftop from the main user menu? It would be very nice to see blocked ip's from snort and what ip's are popping up. Sorry but I don't have a clue how to follow / tail the dump file and where it is stored. If someone could shed some light on this that would be great. Sicne I have upgraded to the latest version it has opened up a whole world of goodies for monitoring and protecting the system. Regards Sam

    oh, sweet mercy… it was that easy.  hmmm, some clarification for posterity: despite the firewall rule that i had in place passing traffic out the proper interface (which was not the default route for the system) squid or something about the way it handles traffic (forgive me, i'm not clear on the specifics) still needed a static route to work properly. traffic seems to be flowing nicely from clients on the LAN interface at siteB out the Opt interface, across our MPLS to the web server on it's private ip at SiteA. thanks all for pointing me in the right direction. with my users happily browsing their intranet, i think i'm going to punch out and go have a beer. cheers! -p
