    @johnpoz said in Please help to configure HAProxy to serve certifficate on internal LAN too: Yeah - what part do you not understand if you always resolve nextcloud.domain.tld so that it hits your haproxy on your pfsense wan IP are you not getting? You have 2 options - use a different domain internally and always go to nextcloud.publicdomain.tld, or use the same domain internally as external and run into the problem of what IP it resolves to.. Change your local domain to say home.arpa or .internal or atleast something different than the public domain your using to point to pfsense wan IP on the public internet. You are shooting yourself in the foot trying to use the same domain externally as internally. There are ways around it, but they complicate the setup. For example you might be able to use views in unbound as one way to work around the problem. You could use only host entries for all your resources. But then again you run into a problem of using the fqdn for this service, now always pointing to your wan IP.. And that is great when you want to access the service haproxy is doing - but if you want to access that resource on some other service that haproxy doesn't handle - like say simple file sharing.. You are going to have problems. Since you clearly do not understand how any of this works - the simple solution is change the local domain you are using so it is not the same as the public domain you want to use to get to your nextcloud. This tone is outrageous directed at somebody who acknowledged right off the rip that English is not their first language. How many languages do you speak, John? And safely assuming it's only one—English of course—take it from a fellow English native that you'd do well to say more with less words. You otherwise were directing OP in the right direction in my opinion.

    @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.

    @netboy said in is something wrong with pfBlockerNG?: After my post, I "changed" DNSBL -> DNSBL mode from "unbound python mode" to "unbound mode" and so far i have no issues. Terrible idea. Moving backwards in development history there.

    @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 ?

    @CarlMRoss I've followed your very helpful instructions and got mine updated to 1.90.6. However, I did notice that tailscale does not start on reboot. Is this still happening for you as well? I can get it restarted with the commands you provided but having to do that manually is a concern.

    Hi everyone, This is a noob question but already tried multiple and I hope some one can help with this. I have a Wireguard Tunnel configured and handshake is successfully performed and I can ping the server from the laptop but can't do it otherwise. Already deactivate the NAT feature and all the rules and no luck. Pfsense and this server is located in a Proxmox Server, laptop is a local. Any ideas? Thank you.

    @barnettd Thanks for the fix! I was running into the exact same issue. Like @kmp, the pkg utility also had to be downgraded: pkg: 2.2.2_2 → 1.21.3_5 [pfSense] The following packages were reinstalled: pfSense-repo-25.07.1 [pfSense] pfSense-upgrade-1.3.11 [pfSense] snmpd starts up and everything appears to be working after a reboot.

    @rootCRO said in pfSense 2.8 Installation Fails, and 2.7.2 Cannot Fetch pkg Packages – Repository Unreachable”: services.netgate.com Where did you get that "services.netgate.com" host name from ? Here is the forum that handles the 'install' questions : Home > pfSense Software > Problems Installing or Upgrading pfSense Software. @rootCRO said in pfSense 2.8 Installation Fails, and 2.7.2 Cannot Fetch pkg Packages – Repository Unreachable”: I’d really like to know exactly where pfSense pulls its packages from FreeBSD: { enabled: no } pfSense-core: { url: "pkg+https://pfsense-plus-pkg.netgate.com/pfSense_plus-v25_07_1_amd64-core", mirror_type: "srv", signature_type: "fingerprints", fingerprints: "/usr/local/share/pfSense/keys/pkg", enabled: yes } pfSense: { url: "pkg+https://pfsense-plus-pkg.netgate.com/pfSense_plus-v25_07_1_amd64-pfSense_plus_v25_07_1", mirror_type: "srv", signature_type: "fingerprints", fingerprints: "/usr/local/share/pfSense/keys/pkg", enabled: yes } I'm using pfSense plus. Be ware : you can't point a web browser to URL like https://pfsense-plus-pkg.netgate.com/pfSense_plus-v25_07_1_amd64-pfSense_plus_v25_07_1, as it is not a web server.

    @keyser said in mdns-bridge one-way reflection: @marcg Yes, those ports are needed - in what we consider the wrong direction - when you are Airplaying Video/screen mirroring. For sound only Airplay they are not needed/used. @keyser @dennypage , thanks for the info and confirmation. Somewhat reminiscent of the well-known firewall issues with active FTP ... with the difference that Airplay was introduced 20+ years later.

    While I'm not 100% sure it cannot be brought to relay subnet-directed broadcast, it would make little network sense if it did. Remember that any IP stack on the other side that follows IP guidelinies would still drop the packet even if the NIC picked up the L2 broadcast frame from the wire. The idea of the package is forwarding Class D (multicast) and proper global broadcast frames.

    @dennypage And thank you SO much to @dennypage for maintaining the package - and so selflessly spending time supporting it and us users. Especially when we ask stupid questions or are so selfcentered we find ourselves important enough to outright complain over volunteer work like this. All package maintainers should really have a HERO badge here on this forum.

    @AnthonySalamone preface: I don't use HA Proxy but did use the power of searching the internet. If you want to use pfSense with Authelia, which seems to use these exact three files, someone written a blog post about how to do it: https://kovasky.me/blogs/pfsense_haproxy_authelia/

    @nws thanks for the consistent fix - I completely overlooked that for a while. And @credulous yes, it's still a mystery why the collectors seemingly trigger and gives errors, and also why they don't appear at the collector list. It seems the Prometheus Node Exporter package on FreeBSD has very low priority perhaps? Else you would imagine something like this could be fixed.

    @Codefighter Thanks @Codefighter, you’ve nailed it. I totally agree that for home use, OTP can feel like overkill. But when it comes to small, medium, and large businesses, we’ve got a real responsibility to keep networks and systems secure. We can’t afford to be casual or underestimate the risks out there. Honestly, I’d much rather hear a few grumbles from employees about typing in an OTP every time they hop on the VPN than have to sit in a meeting with the board explaining why we didn’t do enough to prevent and mitigate a cyberattack.

    you're right, I'm still confused about where to find it. The red flag remains, probably just a minor bug
