    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.

    @vicking said in No blocks on IP: Is it a bad idea to have the action set to deny both instead of inbound only? Question is squarely for admin. Per the infoblock which explains, in part, the "Deny Inbound", "Deny Outbound", and "Deny Both" actions: 'Deny' Rules: 'Deny' rules create high priority 'block' or 'reject' rules on the stated interfaces. They don't change the 'pass' rules on other interfaces. Typical uses of 'Deny' rules are: Deny Both - blocks all traffic in both directions, if the source or destination IP is in the block list Deny Inbound/Deny Outbound - blocks all traffic in one direction unless it is part of a session started by traffic sent in the other direction. Does not affect traffic in the other direction. One way 'Deny' rules can be used to selectively block unsolicited incoming (new session) packets in one direction, while still allowing deliberate outgoing sessions to be created in the other direction. In other words: When set to "Deny Inbound", incoming connection requests from WAN hosts are blocked and therefore no state will be created. However a LAN host can still establish state to an otherwise listed IP. If set to "Deny Outbound", outgoing connection requests from LAN hosts are blocked and therefore no state will be created. However an incoming connection request from an otherwise listed IP to an 'open' WAN port can still establish state. If set to "Deny Both", both incoming connection requests and outbound connections requests are blocked and therefore no state will be created regardless of connection direction.

    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 ?

    @luckman212, Thanks for your suggestion. I will check what I have in /usr/local/pkg/tailscale/state, and also the RAM disk settings others have brought up. I could learn more about where Tailscale and pfSense store system files. If I find anything worth sharing, I will let you know.

    @andresbraga if you still have the firewall rules as you posted, then I don't know why from the laptop you can't ping the pfSense Wireguard address 10.10.6.1 nor the pfSense gateway 10.10.1.1 What is the routing table of the laptop. And I would run a packet capture on pfSense and check what you see if you run the ping to 10.10.1.1 or 10.10.6.1.

    @e-1-1 said in syslog-ng - send logs using TCP and TLS: @bmeeks first of all, thanks for all the work you're doing with Suricata! Yup, manual config is possbile with syslog-ng. Myself, I prefer to use GUI methods to minimize errors and configuration drift. I was sincerely hoping a GUI method is available. Am already using such a setup, but with Barracudas. Guess a feature request is in order for this. Or learn a little PHP programming know-how (if you don't have it already) and create a package for this feature. Become a volunteer package maintainer. That's what I did for Snort (when I took over its maintenance) and later when I created the Suricata package. That's the beauty of open-source software.

    hi, This, Authenticating OpenVPN Users with FreeRADIUS, tells me that Authenticating works. What you want, is Accounting, as is used by the Captive portal, enforced by the Interim option. Simply put, I guess, this isn't possible - not present in the GUI. See also https://networkradius.com/doc/3.0.10/raddb/mods-available/logintime.html If there is a way, it would be some setting (script ?) on the OpenVPN server side that should be called every xx seconds, so it can question FreeRadius if the actual logged in user is still allowed to stay logged in. Plan B : on the OpenVPN interface you put firewall rules. Schedule them in time ?

    SOLVED: I have a Cisco SG-350 downstream of the pfSense box(es). The problem definitely resided there. I had EEE turned on on the Cisco SG-350. The were no obvious other symptoms of this besides just port 53 on the native VLAN for the trunk between the SG-1100 and the Cisco SG-350, going down randomly within 24 hours. (more substantial test revealed that failure occurred as little as 10 minutes and as much as 21 hours) ~A

    If you want to create a nginx package, i think your welcome to do so. I'm sticking with haproxy package for the moment. And then still there is no reason i can think of to 'exchange' one for the other, they could both co-exist as pfSense-packages on the same installation. my 2 cents.. Regards, PiBa-NL

    The userland application is a dead end. Not worth expending effort on. It can never perform up to standards, and has had stability issues.

    All, I've been able to get it installed. Apparently my internet connection was so slow that the web interface was timing out before it could download it in time. I was able to get it installed using the command line instead. Next I need to work out why my internet has gone to crap. Thanks all.

    @oleg-blecher said in syslog-ng not starting: Undefined symbol "g_ptr_array_find_with_equal_func" if you have that error after the update it means that everything was not successful try from console pkg install --force glib-2.56.3_7,1 or backup your config and do a clean install of 2.4.5 and restore that error it's due to a mismatch between lib and syslog-ng

    I agree with @johnpoz. Looks like the OP is attempting to install and use the OpenVPN client package on a Windows 10 box either without using, or perhaps by not having access to, administrator permissions. Is this Windows 10 domain box perhaps at an office and employees do not routinely have local administrator permission? That would be a typical corporate setup, for sure.
