    @NRgia said in Suricata on Pfsense: @bmeeks Thank you for what you did for Snort or Suricata. I'm not sure what you want me to do on Redmine, due to is a bug tracker. My question is for Product Management, which I will ask it here to be public: What is the plan for these 2 packages, Suricata and Snort? Thank you Yes, Redmine is for both bug reports and feature requests. Asking for the Suricata binary to be updated to the latest 7.0.11 version from upstream is a legitimate Redmine request. I would suggest simply asking for the binary version update instead of asking about future Netgate strategy (such as the support plans for the packages). Strategy discussions typically don't get very far because they deal with proprietary information or plans that a company may not want to publicly discuss. Redmine is where the Netgate developer team tracks all the code changes they make for pfSense. They will see Redmine reports much quicker than a forum post.

    @Leon-Straathof Data retention settings are handled inside of ntopng. Documentation here. Pay attention to the RRD note. Also, if you've turned on some of the slice and dice time series information (is off by default), I'd suggest turning them back off. These balloon the storage requirements and are of little actual use.

That's probably good thing ? ( ! ). Up to you to discover why your NAS should initiate connections to these countries. A NAS can go outside for maintenance purposes, for example to look for updates of it's system. These could be located anywhere of course. The GeoIP IP created a rule for you. How and where do you use that this rule ?

    @jhg said in NUT fails to start after 2.7.2 -> 2.8.0 upgrade: Interesting. I would have thought the initial reboot, which occurred as part of the upgrade, would have done the trick, but it took a second reboot, just now, to get things working. Glad you have it sorted. There was no difference in the output of usbconfig show_ifdrv at any point -- before or after unplugging/replugging the USB cable, nor after rebooting. ... Question: What would tell me whether or not a driver was loaded? If there were an attached driver, it should have shown up with the show_ifdrv command. If you use the command and look at the other usb devices, I think they will show attached drivers. I don't expect to see a driver attached to the ups, because there is a quirk that tells the OS to ignore that device (and not attach a driver). Look for idVendor and idProduct in the above output. The Vendor ID for your device is 0764, which corresponds to Cyber Power Systems, and the Product ID for your device is 0601, which is registered as "PR1500LCDRT2U UPS" (don't sweat an exact match for the name). You can see the quirk with the following command: [25.07-RC][root@fw]/root: usbconfig dump_device_quirks | grep 0764 VID=0x0764 PID=0x0005 REVLO=0x0000 REVHI=0xffff QUIRK=UQ_HID_IGNORE VID=0x0764 PID=0x0501 REVLO=0x0000 REVHI=0xffff QUIRK=UQ_HID_IGNORE VID=0x0764 PID=0x0601 REVLO=0x0000 REVHI=0xffff QUIRK=UQ_HID_IGNORE [25.07-RC][root@fw]/root: Your device is third on the list. The HID_IGNORE quirk says to ignore the device and not attach a driver. @jhg said in NUT fails to start after 2.7.2 -> 2.8.0 upgrade: You might consider adding this resolution to the release notes for 2.8. LOL... sorry, I don't have input to the release notes (I don't work here). While I wrote and maintain various packages, including NUT, I'm still just a volunteer. Most packages are actually written by volunteers.

    @EChondo What's your pfSense version ? The instructions are shown here : [image: 1753262126227-1acdc586-cb29-4148-9e36-81ade4e5e60c-image.png] A restart of a service will start by re creating their config files. If a certificate changed, it will get included. When the process starts, it will use the new certificate. @EChondo said in Issue with ACME Certificates Refresh & Restarting HAProxy: I haven't been able to confirm if the above works(mine just renewed, don't feel like doing it again just to test), so we'll see in 60 days I guess. No need to wait x days. You can re test / renew right away, as you are 'allowed' to renew a couple (5 max ?) of times per week.

    Since my upgrade to 25.07-RELEASE (amd64) built on Tue Jul 22 22:24:00 CEST 2025 FreeBSD 15.0-CURRENT, on one end of my most important tunnel, the tunnel still works fine, but the pfSense GUI keeps reporting the service as stopped. I had to remove its monitoring from the Service Watchdog which was also trying to start it, without success. Yet the trafic flows correctly. I'm holding off upgrading my other boxes. Is there something I could do to help diagnose?

    @krumx Hello, This doesn't help much at the moment however, they do have an open ticket for this issue. Just not sure when it will be fixed but at least we can track it here and update as soon as possible: https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/13985

    @iftvio Hello! The propriety of multiple CNs in a cert notwithstanding, and not knowing exactly which version you are running or the intent of the original design goals with regards to handling multiple CNs, a quick code review of your suggested fix would indicate that it may not work in all situations. Among the possible issues: $is_wildcard will be set based on the last CN checked in the array. str_replace will return an array when the subject ($cert_cn) parameter is an array, which will cause subsequent calls to substr that reference $cert_cn_regex to fail. A quick hack might be to simply set $cert_cn to the first/last CN in the array, when present. Of course, any code changes should be fully unit tested. John

    @nogbadthebad For information, here is the right syntax : Called-Station-Id =~ '.*:ssid_name' or in case you want to catch the complete value (ie > "mac:ssid") : Called-Station-Id == "aa-bb-cc-dd-ee-ff:ssid_name" -> Now, user is connecting ONLY to one ssid. Thanks a lot for helping me to fix this setup

    @konjugatix allright, ive done a factory reset and switched my dyndns provider, this one messed up and gave my domain the wrong ip. Now ive got my domain set up with the correct ip and have started again. To this day, i have opened ports 80&443 on my appliance, though when i do a nmap on the IP/domain from outside the network(s), only port 80 is open, does anyone have had a similar issue? I made a simple rule WAN->Tis firewall (Self) with tcp on 80 and the same for 443 in a separate rule.

    The filed bug gave a good hint about not having an empty HA-Sync configuration under 'System'. I've put a username and password in that configuration to make sure it's not empty. This results in a working upgrade, and working Freeradius after upgrade. XMLRPC also works fine after the upgrade.

    @dennypage avahi just doesn't work - there are multiple steps required to get it working with firewall rules, and all that would be would be discovery. It wouldn't allow access.. its mdns..

    @apetrenko said in SMTP server on pfSense.: Question to netgate: why are you so interested to prevent me to use smtp relay on pfSense box? You have no obligation, I'm using the "community edition". Everything on my responsibility. Why are you so much stirred up against my solution? Because this is a security product and e-mail services have a long history of being a gigantic attack surface full of holes and bringing more risk than anyone sane would want to take on. Most other add-on services are either only still around because they're entrenched (and hard to get people to stop using) or because the risk is relatively low by comparison. If you want to do it, you're on your own. That kind of service does not belong on a firewall. EOT. Locking.
