    @johnpoz said in Please help to configure HAProxy to serve certifficate on internal LAN too: @ha11oga11o if you resolve nextcloud.mydomain.xx to your external IP, ie the same one public people do then it would be handled by your haproxy. Example I have ssl offloading for external users for the public fqdn something.mydomain.tld - this resolves externally to my public IP that hits pfsense wan, this also resolves to my public IP when on my local network, so again haproxy handles the ssl, etc. But if I wanted or needed to access that directly on my local lan then I use its name.home.arpa:port that the service is on that doesn't do ssl, etc. What is the point of using the same fqdn internally and externally? What do you think that gets you other than issues? On this case problem is that phone nextcloud client hangs when switching out and in. Simply cannot be used when inside LAN. Well, it can be used either out or in. But to switch it it needs to be totally reset and sync. It remember which connection is allowed, at which cert. And sticks on that. Basically its useless until i sort this out to behave exactly same out and in. I cant believe no one had similar issue at home lab self hosted?? Im sure someone had need to do things like this? Thank you again.

    @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.

    Hi folks, Whenever I try to access a DNSBL blocked root domain it shows the block page but the moment it gets into a subfolder or file in the domain it only shows 1x1 px page. Meaning http://detectportal.firefox.com/ redirects to the DNSBL blockpage with the blocked domain info "This website detectportal.firefox.com has been blocked by the Network Administrator!" but if I try http://detectportal.firefox.com/canonical.html http://detectportal.firefox.com/success.txt http://detectportal.firefox.com/justatest it only shows 1x1pixel Is this by design? Is there anything I can do to make the rest of the pages show the alert? Regards

    @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 ?

    I was on PfSense version 23.xx (don't recall the xx) and was able to start the Wireguard service. I upgraded to the 25.11 beta version and now the Wireguard service will not even start. I am on Wireguard version 2.1, and I see that there are versions that go up to 2.9. How do I upgrade to a later version? The only version in the pfSense updater is 2.1. Thank you

    what i meant was if you have search on either dansguardian or content filter you would have got a lot info on those topic. Dansguardian is not completely free so nobody started making that packages as fare as i remember. For more info on squidGuard http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,3111.msg30171.html#msg30171 available as soon as a dev finds the time to add it.

    No its not there now, and its no longer running. So I have no idea why it was running, or It must have started during the reboot from the upgrade I guess. I'll keep an eye on it and see if it starts again. ben

    Squid has been working alright for me.  Try uninstalling, updating to the lastest snapshot, and reinstalling.

    Make sure you have squid in transparent mode as well.  Otherwise you want pass through the proxy unless you tell your browser to.

    This package looks to be coming along great.  Granted it isn't perfect, I like it better than the webmin interface that is available for squidGuard.  Don't have time to do much more testing for a bit because of midterms.  Anyone interested in Content filtering should check this the link out and help the project roll forward

    The developers edition is for developers.  Unless you know how to solve these issue on your own then you are running the wrong edition. In addition the developers edition is NOT SUPPORTED.  This has been mentioned atleast 1000 times.  Search the forum!

    The logging page works with the file logging only. If you use mysql logging you will need to create your own log viewer.

    @Fred: A little off-topic for this thread, but does pfSense provide any mechanism to send WOL packets to a list of servers when it boots?  It'd be nice if it could do that, so NUT will signal our servers to shutdown and pfSense would turn them back on after the firewall was up for xx minutes. For this I think you could create a batch file and call it via shellcmd in the config.xml Maybe have it wait and then call wol after a few minutes. Perhaps use wol -f to wake a list of macs specified in the file. It will run everytime you reboot the box, but no harm in trying to wake up a server that's already on…

    It should work okay but you will want to redo your load balancing queues once you move over.

    There is a package in developement that adds the freenas features to pfSense but expect to not see it that soon as it needs some codebits that are currently only available in the HEAD codetree. Printsharing is not planned/developed currently.

    Just wondering if anything has come of this.  I've been getting one too many letters from my ISP and would like to impliment a peerguardian-like solution.
