    @aGeekhere They just release Squid 7 and it is stable if you want to check it out

    "The Squid HTTP Proxy team is very pleased to announce the availability
    of the Squid-7.1 release!

    This release is, we believe, stable enough for general production use.
    We encourage all users of any previous major version of Squid to upgrade to it,
    as well as users of beta version 7.0.X.

    It can be downloaded from GitHub, at
    https://github.com/squid-cache/squid/releases/tag/SQUID_7_1

    Since version 6, Squid offers:

    better support for overlapping IP ranges and wildcard domains in acl countless security, portability, and documentation fixes

    Since version 6, some previously deprecated features have been removed:

    Edge Side Includes (ESI) access to the cache manager using the cache_object:// scheme - use
    http instead the squdclient tool - use curl
    http://<squid-address>/squid-internal-mgr/menu instead the cachemgr.cgi tool the purge tool - use the http PURGE method instead Ident protocol support basic_smb_lm_auth and ntlm_smb_lm_auth helpers - use Samba's
    ntlm_auth instead

    Further details can be found in the release notes and in the changelog

    Please remember to run "squid -k parse" when testing the upgrade to a new
    version of Squid. It will audit your configuration files and report
    any identifiable issues the new release will have in your installation
    before you "press go".

    If you encounter any issues with this release please file a bug report at
    https://bugs.squid-cache.org/

    I am having issues with this right now

    "I got as far as this with the make clean install no matter what I do I can’t get this package installed. I have tried pkg install heimdal same error after install and pkg install krb5 and pkg install krb5-devel. I don’t know what I am doing wrong it does the make clean for a while and crashes for the bootstrap version the other one I could get going

Please report the problem to timp87@gmail.com maintainerl and attach the '/usr/ports/uuu/squid/uork/squid-7.1/config.log" including the output of the failure of your make command. Also, it might be a good idea to provide an overview of all packages installed on your system te.g. a /usr/local/sbin/pkg-static into -g -tal. *** Error code 1 Stop. makel1]: stopped in /usr/ports/www/squid *** Error code 1 Stop. make: stopped in /usr/ports/www/squid root@free:/usr/ports/www/squid #"

    it gets so far along and fails with this error.

    Hi. Is there any way to get Suricata working with the new PPPoE driver (available since version 2.8.0). Unfortunately, after enabling the new driver, Suricata doesn't report any alerts.

    @Laxarus This worked for me as well. Though I had to search the web how to edit the file (the easiest way).

    Therefore:

    Addition for anyone struggling to find where to edit files on your pfsense system.

    Go to Diagnostics --> Edit File --> insert the location of the file:

    /usr/local/pkg/pfblockerng/pfblockerng.sh

    Go to line number 1232 by filling it in the Go to line field.

    That line should read:

    s1="$(grep -cv ^${ip_placeholder2}$ ${masterfile})"

    replace only (leave the rest intact):

    masterfile

    to

    mastercat

    Then follow the above instructions from @Laxarus https://forum.netgate.com/post/1219635

    https://help.zerossl.com/hc/en-us/articles/360060119933-Certificate-Revocation

    edit: oh you prob out of luck

    You can revoke any certificate issued via the ZeroSSL portal. Currently, certificates issued via ACME can not be revoked from inside the portal - please follow the instructions of your ACME client for revoking those certificates.

    the gui in pfsense does not have the ability to revoke - you prob have to move the certs to something you have certbot installed to and revoke that way.

    I had a similar issue with Routed VTI over IPsec recently. FRR lost its neighbors after rebooting or when a tunnel went down. It never re-discovered it automatically. Only restarting FRR (either in GUI or via CLI) brought the neighbors back.

    When I manually added those under the OSPF neighbors tab in the GUI it seems to solve the problem as well.

    We have a very basic configuration between three locations. All are running Netgate firewalls (1x 4100, 1x 6100 & 1x 4200). All are on the latest firmware (03.00.00.01-2Ct-uc-15) and system versions (24.11-RELEASE).

    The local subnets are as follows:
    4100 - 192.168.5.0/24
    4200 - 192.168.4.0/24
    6100 - 192.168.1.0/24

    The VPN traffic between the 4100 and 4200 is functioning 100% as expected

    The traffic between 6100 and the 4100 works going from the 4100 subnet (192.168.5.0/24) to the 6100 subnet (192.168.1.0/24)

    Traffic from the firewall (i.e. the 6100 device) to the 4100 subnet works (i.e. I can ping any device on the 192.168.5.0/24 subnet from the 6100 firewall) but I cannot ping any device on the 4100 (192.168.5.0/24) subnet from any device on the 6100 subnet (192.168.1.0/24) - other than from the firewall itself.

    All routes are correct, but it seems that traffic from the 192.168.1.0/24 subnet hits the firewall and then gets lost - traceroute shows that it goes off into the internet.

    Note too that the 6100 has IPsec VPN configured on it as well

    Suggestions would be appreciated

    @patient0 Yes, have followed that guide and infact have set up quite a few Wireguard tunnels before with no issue. The difference this time is the CGNAT. I am pretty sure its some quirk of the CGNAT that is causing this but still unsure how to diagnose.

    My firewall settings on the tunnel interfaces are correct I think and are the same as I normally use, there is no blockage there.

    Thanks for the reminder, I have been meaning to do this for a while, http://cvstrac.pfsense.com/chngview?cn=11517

    There is also something else before this should work, You will need to create a pass rule for access to webgui and ssh after the block rule. Then disable anitlockout in System -> Advance, then it should work. It should also work for traffic shaper rules for squid.

    It is, but you have to change the squid.conf manualy until the bug ticket is solved.

    running latest and greatest. I guess it was me being impatient. I thought it wouldn't take as long, I finally was poking through the command prompt and it takes at least a minute of better to load with amount of traffic on it.

    thanks.

    @rexster:

    just installed squid on pfsense beta2.

    it works fine right after it's installed.

    but when i start configure things from the gui,
    it gives me error just like the one in my post before this.

    why the options in the gui is not same with default installed squid.conf ??

    Its broken. When time permits I'll probably take a look at it to see if I can sort that out, provided no-one is already working on it.
    I'd get a chance to try out Scott's flashy CoreGUI.  ;D

    Create a portforward at firewall>nat, portforward tab. choose LAN or OPTx interface instead of WAN, depending at which interface your clients are coming from.

    Ok I finally got around to installing the squid package but im having a bit of trouble getting it to work. I set it up for "transparent mode" but get an "access denied" output. Am I missing something? I was under the impression that no other configuration was needed when using squid in "transparent mode".
