    Can I use pgblockerng aliases in Haproxy?

    80758505-9bad-4dad-a80b-c159be1045a2-image.png

    If it was a firewall rule, typing pfb would produce a dropdown to select.

    Here it has to be written, but will it work? Is it supported?

    I saw where the Netgate kernel developer updated the Suricata package in the pfSense 25.07 development branch to work with the new kernel PPPoE driver. But so far as I know that updated package has not been migrated to 2.8 CE.

    Here is the commit into the DEVEL branch: https://github.com/pfsense/FreeBSD-ports/commit/68a06b3a33c690042b61fb4ccfe96f3138e83b72.

    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.

    https://help.zerossl.com/hc/en-us/articles/360060119933-Certificate-Revocation

    edit: oh you prob out of luck

    You can revoke any certificate issued via the ZeroSSL portal. Currently, certificates issued via ACME can not be revoked from inside the portal - please follow the instructions of your ACME client for revoking those certificates.

    the gui in pfsense does not have the ability to revoke - you prob have to move the certs to something you have certbot installed to and revoke that way.

    I had a similar issue with Routed VTI over IPsec recently. FRR lost its neighbors after rebooting or when a tunnel went down. It never re-discovered it automatically. Only restarting FRR (either in GUI or via CLI) brought the neighbors back.

    When I manually added those under the OSPF neighbors tab in the GUI it seems to solve the problem as well.

    For 25.07 RC, this worked for me (run sh first)

    @patient0 Thanks for further suggestions. The tunnel is definitely up and so I don't think this is a CGNAT issue after all. WAN firewall rule is in place for UDP on port 51823 (otherwise the tunnel wouldn't work, right?). I can ping from client 1 -> client 2 and visa versa and also ping all points in between like you suggest. I just can't open an HTTPS connection from pfSenseB from Client 1 using a browser. But I can do this the other way round i.e. from Client 2 to pfSenseA

    I will try and do some packet capture to see if that reveals anything.

    I do not know an elegant solution to this https problem. If there are any interesting offers, I will gladly use them.

    But - SG analyse and use HTTP-GUI LAN IP:port (need Save & Apply on General page SG). You can use any httpGUI port.

    yes i know :D

    thats the problem with reboot ;)

    my proxyconfig is so because i want antivirus function and squid. BUT antivirus (havp) dont understand ftp protocol and so i have to configure squid as normal proxy and havp with parent proxy to squid ip!!!  it gives no other way for alternative - only wihtout ftp support!

    therefore i need a loopback interface for squid!

    Hi,

    The time is in unix format. And that be so, as I understand it.

    Log to another physical server. How this can be done eg on Windows server? If there is a possibility.

    In Proxy server: General settings >> Custom Options I have:

    redirect_program /usr/local/bin/squidGuard -c /usr/local/etc/squidGuard/squidGuard.conf;redirector_bypass on;redirect_children 3

    What is this?

    Thank you for your reply.

    @DigitalJer:

    Even so, keep in mind this is bleeding edge technology, it's under active and heavy development.  The usual developer of this package listens and makes every effort to reply to a problem.  Complaining with no facts doesn't help anyone.

    Hear, hear!  I would think this would be standard practice now, or at least common sense.  Thanks for saying it.

    I believe you need to remove your 'custom option'.  This field should be left blank.  At the top of the page on the Cache Management tab, set 'Hard Disk Cache System' to null.  The cache location should not matter as no storage will actually be used.

    @dvserg:

    Try use portmapping on interface IfaceIP:3310 > 127.0.0.1:3310

    It works, thanks!

    Configuration:
    Firewall/NAT
    Interface: LAN
    Protocol: TCP
    External port range: 30000
    NAT IP: 127.0.0.1
    Local port: 3310

    Point servers to firewall LAN IP address on port 30000.

    Awesome. Not sure why, but on i386 it would not automatically make a neon package. I made it by hand. amd64 built and uploaded it automatically.

    You mean by modifying the captive portal, or the captive portal is already able to authenticate using AD, and it's able to send user/groups to SquidGuard?

    i have this :

    For LAN

    TCP LAN net * * 5900 (VNC) *   Allow LAN VNC

    For WAN

    TCP LAN net * * 5900 (VNC) *   Allow WAN VNC

    and when you use vnc over openvpn you have to put one access rule for the other network (f.e. 10.10.10.0/24) for wan and lan to test it ;)

    GOOD LUCK
