    @andrew_cb said in haproxy 0.63_2 weird behavior, edits not working: @iSagen @TheCyborgWeasel The issue is likely the same as in https://forum.netgate.com/topic/178348/haproxy-backend-port-changes-are-not-applied/ Try adding load-server-state-from-file none to the Advanced Settings > Backend pass thru section of each backend. Great! I will do this.

    @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.

    @keyser Clarify "it makes sense if the GEOIP DB has that size" are you referencing the asn data as I have shown or the maxmind data? the asn data takes all of 15 seconds to download and process. Not really any "magic" going on there, you can see the mmdb is only a download referenced and the asn.csv.gz is basically just unzipped. I can't comment on the maxmind data specifically because I don't use for my geo location. But I can see what the code should be doing. seeing your actual log file will help determine where your specific spike may be coming from, but if I had to guess from looking at the code and my timing with respect to the asn parts of it I would guess this is most likely to be an issue with the maxmind parts - timing should be in the log. can you change when it runs ? no, not directly, there is no way to do this without changing the code to target a specific time when it creates the cron job in the first place. No you can't change the timing of the cron job and have it stick, it will eventually just go random again. On the other hand, yes, because I changed the code here so it always creates the same "not so random" time.. runnning at same time every day since this code change first became available in the pfblockerNG update for 24.11 that came out months ago, well before 25.07 curious you originally said "noticed this after upgrading to 25.07 and pfb 3.2.7" were you running the "new" format of asn data before? (would have only been possible if you upgraded from 24.11 with the latest version of pfb installed) you would have entered and ASN key at some point to make it work. did you do that under the prior version and just now with 25.07) it's likely not significant, but then again .... That likely won't help your spike, other than moving it to a different time. I moved it here to a static ("not so random") time for other reasons, nothing to do with system load at the time.. Log files would be helpful. (just the snippet that applies to this time, from extras, error and pfblockerng logs there may be nothing in error or pfblockerng related to the time it is running. .

    @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.

    @raidflex said in updating to acme 1.0 breaks system beyond repair: need to restore from backup: maybe uninstall Crowdsec when applying other updates first. It seems like it doesn't help at least from what I see on my system... it changes something.. so it must be definitely reported to their github. I have never experienced that before and crowsec was installed.. maybe with 2.8.0 something have changed

    Strangely enough, checking the system 4 days later, I now see that Wireguard service is reported running! The last thing I did 4 days ago was to disable Wireguard service monitoring by the Service Watchdog. Anyway, even when it was reported stopped at first, 4 days ago, the tunnels were working flawlessly. Very strange. I will keep an eye on it.

    @nogbadthebad Correct. Supermicro IPMI. Most of my searches found people having issues getting authentication working with Supermicro. My issue is that all other devices that use RADIUS for authentication are all working (UPS’s, Supermicro IPMI, TrippLite PDU). It’s just the pfSense itself.

    Not sure if you figured it out already since this post is a few days old, but I think you need to do two things: Remove your "Default Backend" entry (if you have a default entry, everything will be sent to that backend, regardless of the ACL you defined above) For the "Use Backend" action, you wanna populate the "Condition Acl Name" field or else the action wont match. So in your case, set the "condition acl name" to "LookingGlass" (the name you gave your "Host Matches:" ACL) You now should get a 503 error for all other requests until you define another acl that matches the host name and send that to the same (or a different) backend via another "Use Backend" action entry. Hope this helps. Still a beginner with ha proxy so not sure if this is the way to go, but for me in a similar situation that was what I had to do.

    @jonathanlee Thank you for the insight and pointing out my miss configuration. I didn’t see it till you said something. Where I had loop back 127.0.0.1 I should’ve had IOTWiFi addresses. I used the net gate recipes for redirecting DNS and applied it to NTP. Have a good weekend

    The security issues here would be somewhat less of a problem if OpenVPN didn't store the client certificate's private key in plain text in the config file A possible modification to the OP's suggestion based on some responses here: an option to email the client config file as an encrypted, passworded zip file. After that it is on the VPN admin to ensure that the encrypted zip file's password is communicated by an alternative communications method.

    @toyinal said in Captive Portal takes 1 hr to start: Unfortunately reinstalling will be the last resort since it’s the production system Re installing ? You're using pfSense - not some "Windows 10" PC ;) All settings are in one file, the file you backup every day (do you ?). If the system fails - as hardware does all the time, you can get back online in minutes. Because : you import one file, and all is back to normal. This makes settings testing with default settings so easy. It also validates your backup and urgency plan. @toyinal said in Captive Portal takes 1 hr to start: but less number of Ethernet ports What happens when you disable all non needed ports ? Without having any details, so I just presume, it's a hardware issue. I know it can boot normally, as you and I use the same software. The difference is : hardware drivers for the NIC's involved and settings.

    @jc1976 said in SSL_ERROR_INTERNAL_ERROR_ALERT: I saw some mention changing "Global Logging/Blocking Mode" from dnsbl webserver/vip to either no logging or no global mode, but none of that worked. Chose one of the "Null Block" option, I advise the (logging) one so you have the stats. "DNSBL server" is nice on paper, but only works (well) for non https requests, that is : old fashioned http requests. The thing is : these don't exist any more. Example : You have blacklisted "www.verisign.com" and you try to visit it. Your browser connects to the IP it got back from pfSense, and the web server at that IP has to send a certificate that says "Hi, I'm the certificate verisign.com". But that didn't happen. The IP your browser obtained was : [image: 1641378309799-939c8a03-dc36-488b-9fef-4c812acc2219-image.png] and this we server send a auto signed, non trusted cert that says : "(I'm not verisign)". Your browser then 'should) tells you : something went terribly wrong. And it will NOT ( of course not) show you the page. Browser love to show messages like SSL_ERROR_INTERNAL_ERROR_ALERT because something (some one) tries to break SSL. That's bad. You should disregard the usage of the DNSBL web server proposed by pfBlockerNG, as it was a good idea in the past, it's unusable these days.

    @gertjan On newer Android versions it is required to have a valid SSL Cert for the Radius service, therefore we use the LE Cert. Yes, if I manually remove the "DST Root CA X3" from the Freeradius server cert, everything works.
