    @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.

    @tinfoilmatt said in Failed or invalid Mime Type: [application/SIMH-tape-data|0]: (ASN data is IPinfo, not Maxmind) Thats correct but "GeoLite2-Country" is from Maxmind ... (that confused me) I'm considering simply adding "application/SIMH-tape-data" to the list to test. Thats what i tought too ... I'll try when I have the time for it ... Edit: I can confirm - adding "application/SIMH-tape-data" to the list at line 257 in /usr/local/pkg/pfblockerng/pfblockerng.inc did the trick - no more error! Edit: OK, problem resolved but I would like to know, whats the cause for that error! (SIMH-tape-data sounds like a "blast from the past" ...) Thanks a lot!

    @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.

    I also crashed my system yesterday with an ACME update. I can't say whether I had Crowdsec installed or not. But I've tried things like that in the past, so it's quite possible.

    I have Wireguard installed on my firewalls. I have about 12 firewalls and most of them connect back to the main firewall which allows the connection to the servers in the main building. I setup a tunnel on each and then added each location as a peer on the Main firewall. This seemed to work except that the gateway. unde3r Monitor IP it only allows one IP address. So the first one works and shows connected fine, but the other 2 are red and do not connect. Everything seems to work until I added a 3rd peer and then the 1st peer showed as if it was offline even though it looked fine and I was able to connect to devices on that network. Am I supposed to add multiple gateways to the Main firewall so that shows as up? Is this the right way for the tunnels between the buildings which need access will work - By adding a tunnel at that location and just adding a peer to the main location?

    Nut package & 2.3 - will my existing config be honored?

    @daplumber: Mea Culpa, I too missed NUT not being ready for 2.3, so I'm currently living without it. Interestingly the hand-hacked UPS widget is still showing up on the dashboard, but obviously with no information in it. An official UPS widget as part of the NUT package would be a very-nice-to-have…  8) I can offer my APC Back-ups 550 and CyberPower 1000VA (both USB) for testing NUT builds? Yay! NUT is back and with a VERY nice widget! From 2.3.1, don't know if it was back ported. Happy UPS NUT camper again! Yes, my previous config showed up just fine and "just worked" impressive! My only enhancement request would be to monitor more than one UPS, especially remotely.

    Nut - MEC0003 protocol - instant shut down as soon as nut starts?

    FWIW, looking at the NUT user support list, there are several references to the MEC0003 protocol. These are probably worth a read. There are references to both the blazer_usb and nutusb_qx drivers, and both of these drivers have a ton of configuration items that appear to be required.

    See #22 and #23 - http://networkupstools.org/docs/FAQ.html (I should probably copy it here, just to be a complete reply) 22. How can I make upsmon shut down my system after some fixed interval? You probably don’t want to do this, since it doesn’t maximize your runtime on battery. Assuming you have a good reason for it (see the next entry), then look at scheduling.txt or the upssched(8) man page for some ideas. 23. Why doesn’t upsmon shut down my system? I pulled the plug and nothing happened. Wait. upsmon doesn’t consider a UPS to be critical until it’s both on battery and low battery at the same time. This is by design. Nearly every UPS supports the notion of detecting the low battery all by itself. When the voltage drops below a certain point, it will let you know about it. If your system has a really complicated shutdown procedure, you might need to shut down before the UPS raises the low battery flag. For most users, however, the default behavior is adequate. Ask yourself this: why buy a nice big UPS with the matching battery and corresponding runtime and then shutdown early? If anything, I’d rather have a few more minutes running on battery during which the power might return. Once the power’s back, it’s business as usual with no visible interruption in service. If you purposely shut down early, you guarantee an interruption in service by bringing down the box. See upssched.txt for information on how you can shutdown early if this is what you really want to do.

    Is there a way to filter emails when delivered directly to clients?

    If you're using Thunderbird to access your emails, I assume you're picking up your messages via either POP3 or IMAP directly from your 'provider mail server'. In which case you would need to position your mail filter to operate in front of your mail server, not between your mail server and your clients. Spam and viruses should be stopped before they reach the mail server at all, so you would need to position your mail filter so that it received all your inbound messages and then passed on the filtered emails to the mail server. This may mean having to bring your mail server in-house. If that isn't an option, then there are paid-for mail scanning services, such as Messagelabs, which will handle all your spam/viruses for you. You'd just need to amend your MX record to point to the Messagelabs system and they would forward the filtered mail to your hosted server. If you do host a mail server in-house, you can install the Mailscanner package on your firewall, but from what I know this particular package is quite CPU-intensive and could cause your firewall some problems if you process a lot of email. In my own opinion, you'd be safer running it as a separate system, with your SMTP traffic port-forwarding to the Mailscanner server and it, in turn, passing on the filtered mail to your internal mail system.

    @jimp: It's there on 32-bit, perhaps you looked before it had finished building or syncing there? Possibly-  Just being impatient I suppose. ;D Got it now though.    Thanks!

    @dennypage: If you want to see what the driver is actually reading from the unit, you can run the upsc command like so:  ``` upsc upsname Thanks, for some reason I had it in my head it was upsd <upsname>  and it all shows valid data And don't ask me why… now the widget is showing full data display. Oh, and I too am a Marvin fan! Rick</upsname>

    Hopefully this is an area of NUT that will one day get an update… I use a Cyberpower unit but none of the Cyberpower configs work...  but if I use an APC config with the USB option it reads the Cyberpower unit model number, charge and stats.  The service will then start and the widget works for all but the bar graphs. Play around with multiple configs. Hope that helps
