    i am using pfsense 2.8.0 with haproxy 0.63_10 and i have 4 sites that redirect to two different web server, i am using two frontend, one for http request redirect to https using rule: scheme https, and a second with type ssl/https(tcp mode) to redirect the request with the acl and the action, now i want to add a new site to one of the web servers i create a new backend (and even tried duplicate) and add the proper acl and action as always did but for some reason since the update to 2.8.0 the redirect keeps going to the wrong backend, i tried a test and rewrote and old backend and updated the acl and rule in the frontend and it works fine, is there a known bug since the update because it keeps happening even after reboot to pfsense and the haproxy service and reinstall of the package.

    @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.

    Re: How to update to the latest Tailscale version? I am on latest released Netgate 6100 pfSense PLUS v24 ( pfSense_plus-v24_11_amd64-pfSense_plus_v24_11 ) pkg config abi FreeBSD:15:amd64 pkg -vv | grep -A 3 "pfSense:" pfSense: { url : "pkg+https://pfsense-plus-pkg.netgate.com/pfSense_plus-v24_11_amd64-pfSense_plus_v24_11", enabled : yes, priority : 0, cat /usr/local/etc/pkg.conf ABI=FreeBSD:15:amd64 ALTABI=freebsd:15:x86:64 PKG_ENV { SSL_CA_CERT_FILE=/etc/ssl/netgate-ca.pem SSL_CLIENT_CERT_FILE=/usr/local/etc/pfSense/pkg/repos/pfSense-repo-0001-cert.pem SSL_CLIENT_KEY_FILE=/usr/local/etc/pfSense/pkg/repos/pfSense-repo-0001-key.pem } This firewall is obviously running on FreeBSD 15 no longer on 14. But can I use the freshports link for FreeBSD 14 amd64 quarterly which is at tailscale 1.86.2 or can I only go up to version tailscale 1.84.2_1, and need to wait until they have a version of tailscale 1.86.2 or higher for the FreeBSD 15?

    I've read through some other posts about this, but they either didn't say whether the proposed solution worked or they were very convoluted and difficult to understand. Here is our scenario: We have 6 locations--Las Cruces (LC), Sunland Park (SP), El Paso (EP), Abilene (ABI), Fort Worth (FW), and Plano (PL). LC and ABI have software that is accessed by the other 4 locations via VPN. There are WireGuard VPNs set up between LC and those 4 locations (SP, EP, FW, PL), and ABI and those 4 locations (SP, EP, FW, PL). There is also a WireGuard VPN connection between LC and ABI. LC and ABI have 2 internet connections. SP, EP, FW, and PL each have one internet connection. If the primary internet connection goes down at either LC or ABI and failover occurs to the secondary internet connection, is there a way to set up the WireGuard VPN connections so that they also failover without purchasing some 3rd party application? Thanks.

    CMB, Thanks for making the change back to HTTP. I surely appreciate it. I haven't tried it yet but I will be getting to this later today. Bryan, Thanks for being understanding. I certainly wasn't moaning and expecting someone else to do the heavy lifting for me. I was simply asking to be pointed in the right direction. I obviously have a very large upgrade project ahead of me. We knew this was coming but as usual, the project wasn't at the top of the list. I had already been looking at setting up our own repository to buy us some time but then the change happened to the package system and it was too late. It looks like I have been given a second chance. Thanks guys.

    @Moosecall: I followed the steps listed in the wiki, it breaks at step 3 running the second php test script.  I am only following the steps for 2.0 setup as the firewalls that will be using it are 2.1.  I did try having a firewall pull from it but as expected no joy. The server is a fresh install of Ubuntu 12.04 lts server, that is doing nothing else.  I installed apache, git and php. You sure the git clones were successful?

    They must be independent. It's more work but that is what is required. Each ACL must define the exact list of actions for each category.

    In pfSense an interface without any rules is already blocking everything by default. pfBlocker is smart enough to understand this. If an interface (e.g. WAN) has no rules, then pfBlocker does not bother to add block rules. Maybe that is the difference between your WANs?

    I looked at squid.conf and it's using only error_default_language directive. I found only another squid directive for error pages: http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/config/error_directory/ But it doesn't help to solve the problem that you told us. I think the only solution is to modify the files at /usr/local/etc/squid/errors/en/ (en, if you use English) and put a redirect code to an alternative URL. Example: This will show http://www.yourdomain.tld/access_denied.html to the user.

    Yes, you can do that. If you're a Gold Subscriber we did a video presentation on Squid, Squidguard, and Lightsquid last Friday and it was mentioned how to set that up. It should be up for download soon. SquidGuard can be set to "deny" by default, add in your own whitelist on top of that and it does what you're wanting. Though it'll be more work than you might initially suspect.

    @dvserg: But http://squid-web-proxy-cache.1019090.n4.nabble.com/Squidguard-redirect-and-https-td4662707.html The problem is not Squid nor HTTPS. The problem is that the HTTP protocol has a standard that allows redirection and the HTTPS protocol does not. The HTTPS protocol was designed to be secure and does not allow any type of interference. The link refers to squid2, without SSL interception possibility. I'm using squid3-devel package with SSL interception (SSL Bump, man-in-the middle based). It's intercepting SSL without any troubles. http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=es&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fforum.pfsense.org%2Findex.php%3Ftopic%3D73007.msg402349%23msg402349 Google https pages with https links are also intercepted. But when I click the link the redirect page is not opened. However, opening the page in a new tab or window browser the redirect page appears. Curious! It's FireFox 27.0.1 fault? I just tried with Chromium 32.0.1700.107 and I've got the redirect page!

    The Emerging Threats Rules have P2P rules. Snort doesn't have anything in that Category.

    If you use a file then it could be replicated across locations and you will always have a config file with you. Why not opt for both? Do as the core team wants and put an extra option in the GUI for creating a snort conf file.

    [SOLVED] 1. Commented lines:   402         #file_put_contents($conf_file, $conf);   403         #file_put_contents(SQUID_LOCALBASE . '/etc/squid' . SQUIDGUARD_CONFIGFILE, $conf); # << squidGuard want config '/usr/local/etc/squid' by default https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense-packages/blob/master/config/squidGuard/squidguard_configurator.inc 2. Modified pass line at: /usr/pbi/squid-i386/etc/squid/squidGuard.conf /usr/pbi/squidguard-squid3-i386/etc/squidGuard/squidGuard.conf 3. [Apply] button to reconfigure squidGuard without writing a new squidGuard.conf In general I only need to modify my lists. So, the trick will work without troubles for me.
