    @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 ?

    @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

    Somehow I dont think running a zabbix server on a firewall is a good idea. For one thing, it needs a database for the backend. Runs the risk of opening unnecessary vulns in the FW as well.

    Bytes = summary traffic Average = summary traffic / users count Cache hit = % from 'Bytes', what hit from(to) squid cache (30% - mean, what you squid make economy 30 % of traffic for you)

    If you want to have a public proxy that users at wan can access to go back to wan (you could for example realize an anonymizer service with that, kind off). It's not meant for authenticating against servers at lan.

    Two Intel Pro Gbit pci NICs. Cisco 1841 provided by the ISP. CPU is Intel Celeron 420 (i think). The slowest one based on the core 2 arch. Two 80gig sata drives in software raid1. We do regularely have latency and throughput issues, but presence of squid has no effect whatsoever on them, and we've already narrowed it down to the ISPs network not being able to  handle the load during peak hours.

    I have to admit that I haven't looked at the squid package for quite some time and I am not able to test this currently so I am not sure.

    Maybe a little information? What rules have you enabled, what options have you set, how have you tested it?

    Easy ;) Check the FreeBSD pr pages (http://www.freebsd.org/support/bugreports.html) to see if anybody else has raised a pr about this Write and test a patch that brings the existing port up to the Stable19 release (see PR 119563 as an example) Wait for the maintainer to update the port then build the package from it.

    Via GUI - nothing, may be with WinCSP3. If you wanted blocking you self sites, you can use Destinations page Crete Destination rule, add you site to domains, store In Default and|or ACL's select and 'deny' this Destination rule.

    Looking here Howto http://diskatel.narod.ru/sgquick.htm –- You blacklist site have restrictions(limits) for downloading. Yestaday i have messages 'try later...try tomorrow, very mach connections from you ip..'. Now i downloading manually this blacklist and testing him(ploading to pfSense from local ftp server) - all beautiful updated and worked. 'Blacklist proxy - Blacklist upload proxy' Option for uploading proxy only. You can use any external proxy (public or private) for uploading blacklist. So that if I choose gaming in default, if I don't select it in an ACL it will still have >effect for the users in the ACL? Eachl ACL's have only self rules. Default - also ACL, but for any users, who is not processed other ACLs.

    Not in 1.2 but that might be possible in 1.3 (not definately sure yet). If you can run the squid behind the pfSense on a different machine it would be possible as then the squid traffic is going through the firewall and can therefore can make use of multiwan.
