    I recently start have trouble saving my HAProxy configuration due to a error. It keeps adding clientca_ in front of the SSL offload certificate name. On file level this file does not exist! I tested with both HA Proxy plugins, the regular and dev version. I tried to regenerate the SSL (Lets Encrypt) but this keeps happening. [ALERT] (45623) : config : Couldn't open the ca-file '/var/etc/haproxy_test/clientca_shared-frontend.pem' (No such file or directory). [ALERT] (45623) : config : parsing [/var/etc/haproxy_test/haproxy.cfg:28] : 'bind 0.0.0.0:443' in section 'frontend' : 'ca-file' : unable to load /var/etc/haproxy_test/clientca_shared-frontend.pem Does anybody have the same behaviour? to be clear I have the 25.07-RC running. The relevant part of /var/etc/haproxy_test/haproxy.cfg frontend shared-frontend bind 0.0.0.0:443 name 0.0.0.0:443 ssl crt-list /var/etc/haproxy_test/shared-frontend.crt_list ca-file /var/etc/haproxy_test/**clientca_**shared-frontend.pem verify required crl-file /var/etc/haproxy_test/**clientcrl_**shared-frontend.pem

    @pulsartiger The database name is vnstat.db and its location is under /var/db/vnstat. With "Backup Files/Dir" we are able to do backup or also with a cron.

    @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? Would it be good enough to tell it to ignore the OSVERSION? export IGNORE_OSVERSION=yes Note: use of 14 and not 15 ? pkg add https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:14:amd64/quarterly/All/tailscale-1.86.2.pkg service tailscaled restart tailscale up

    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.

    I was browsing through the pfSense bug tracker & see someone has actually already reported this. I commented on the bug stating I was having the same problem. Guess all we can do is wait for it to be fixed. However at this time I can't even get Snort operational so the point is moot.

    I had the same issue.  In the end, I decided I didn't need Snort running on my LAN interface. But I had a lot of weirdness getting the right rules in the right places, e.g. I had the same problem on my WAN interface too, on one of my pfSense 2.0 boxes, but not it's mirror copy. For the WAN interface I found the rules were in a subdir of the rules directory also called rules.  So I just copied everything in /usr/local/etc/snort/snort_XXXXX_XXX/rules/rules to /usr/local/etc/snort/snort_XXXXX_XXX/rules/ and then removed the subdirectory.  Seemed to work for me.  YMMV.  Sounds like a bug that can happen under some circumstances… P.S. Another solution to this or another problem (I forget how I solved each problem as there have been several) was to remove the md5 file for e.g. emerging.rules.tar.gz.md5 or snortrules-snapshot-2905.tar.gz.md5 and then run an update.  Then it will fetch a new copy of the rules and extract it.  Again, YMMV. Let me know if either of these work for you.

    Bump: I was under the impression that gateways were going to be addressable via Squid under pfSense 2.0.  Can anyone else speak to this?  Does a bounty need to be created to get this going?

    @ugur: change browser. LOL, did you not see in the opening post he tried like 6 different ones? Mabye you should suggest a different browser for him since he's already tried 6. Not just "change browser". +1 If you have an extra machine. Do a vmware install of a 2.0. Take your config backup from your current machine & try to load it onto the "virtual" install & see if everything is setup as it is before. That will be the best solution. I could somehow see, that even if another user tells you it does work, things have a way of happening different for different people. One case, & point. Many snort users (me included) are having problems getting it to work. Everyone is throwing different error codes. I'm having an error code which was solved months ago, but the fix posted is not fixing mine & it's back for some reason. So just because someone says "it will transfer settings correctly" doesn't mean on your particular setup it will. To be safe try to do a virtual install & run your backup file from your 1.2.3 box to see if everything is brought up correctly. That will tell you for 100%. Edit:A little more insight is to actually see if you could get snort running on that virtual 2.0 install. It may not even work as of this time. My snort was operating flawlessly until a power outage last night. Short story, pfSense died & had to issue a backup config. Therefore snort was reinstalled from the package list. My guess is developer was working on it, & it auto-updates & now it has bad code that needs to be fixed. My previous install was from about 3 weeks ago. It did not generate the error i'm getting now. For my problem there is no known fix. Guess i'm out of luck until it's fixed. I can't run snort in "alert" or "block offender" mode. Both modes are completely fudged. And yes, you are right the whitelist feature does work in 2.0. It does add a drop down box to type the IP into. I did verify this.

    I think it will only work with proxy filters that analyse page content like dansguardian. Squidguard does only checks urls.

    Ok, now it's clear to me. You may need to edit squid.inc file and add manualy redirect rule to openvpn interface. At /tmp/rules.debug you can see squid rdr rule.

    For a simple configured version of squid you have to do the following if it isn't the default setting: check "Transparent proxy" check "Allow users on interface" select the interfaces you would like squid to listen to. In general this is/are your LAN interface/s. I think this is the minimal configuration you have to do. on "Cache Management" you can change the settiungs for RAM and harddisk cache so it suits your hardware. But this isn't necessary for the minimum configuration.

    I will try to write such a script. call package startup routine/function : do you mean to use the status_services.php for that? I am looking at the file and apparently it uses killbypid in order to stop services and start_service(servicename) for startup (for generic services anyway and snort is not one of the special cases there).
