    @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.

    @secs: Me too. I can manualy download the files but snort seems to give up. I dont mind putting them in myself but where do I do them and do I simply put the tar type file there or do I have to uncompress them. I only installed snort today but not one catagory and rule appears…. Ideas? This issue is also being discussed in another thread also on this board and I gave a solution there too. Instructions for manual rule instructions can be found at: http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=15464.0 or http://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Why_won't_snort_properly_download_rules%3F Basically, you extract the files, and then places the rules in the snort rules folder.

    Ok, my bad. The CF card is NOT mounted read-write permanently. I didn't have ssh enabled yet, so I issued the "mount" command via the web interface (Diagnostics > Command > Execute shell command), and concluded from the output that pfsense0 was mounted r/w. Which it was, presumably, just for the duration of the execution of that command… When I log in via ssh, /dev/ufs/pfsense0 indeed shows as mounted read-only. Sorry about the confusion! However, no answer without a new question, I guess: When looking through the logs to see what might be going on, I noticed that snort actually starts twice, back to back. After the first start, I read this: ... Feb 24 22:46:01 pfsense snort[1683]: [ LowMem Search-Method Memory Used : 31.8716 MBytes ] Feb 24 22:46:01 pfsense snort[1683]: [ LowMem Search-Method Memory Used : 31.8716 MBytes ] Feb 24 22:46:01 pfsense snort[1683]: Snort initialization completed successfully (pid=1683) Feb 24 22:46:01 pfsense snort[1683]: Snort initialization completed successfully (pid=1683) Feb 24 22:46:01 pfsense snort[1683]: Not Using PCAP_FRAMES Feb 24 22:46:01 pfsense snort[1683]: Not Using PCAP_FRAMES Feb 24 22:46:02 pfsense SnortStartup[1816]: Ram free BEFORE starting Snort:  -- Ram free AFTER starting Snort: 72M -- Mode lowmem -- Snort memory usage: 139M Feb 24 22:46:03 pfsense check_reload_status: check_reload_status is starting Feb 24 22:46:03 pfsense SnortStartup[1842]: Snort already running... Feb 24 22:46:11 pfsense login: login on console as root Feb 24 22:46:24 pfsense snort[1683]: *** Caught Hup-Signal Feb 24 22:46:24 pfsense snort[1683]: *** Caught Hup-Signal … followed by some statistics, two lines saying "restarting snort" and another startup sequence which to the naked eye seems identical to the first one, down to the PID of the snort process and the exact amount of memory used. It seems to me that this was not the behavior I saw immediately after setting up snort for the first time, as the "Ram free BEFORE starting Snort..." line above was visible in the web interface view of the log. Now this line appears after the first, but not the second startup of snort, and thus is not showing up at the end of the log visible in the web interface any more. I can't recall when this appeared first, so I don't know which configuration changes might have triggered this change in behavior. Possibly the installation of NUT (which is not configured yet)? Is it common to see snort starting twice or should I look for configuration errors ? Thank you jimp for your comments so far, and also for the suggestion of running snort on the LAN side. I'm indeed worried about spyware / viruses / trojans. However, as I stated initially, I have two local machines, on LAN and OPT1 the latter being bridged to LAN. Is it sufficient then to run snort on the LAN or do I need to run it on both to protect both machines? I understand that the default rules I download are designed to work on the WAN. Do I need to manually adapt them to the LAN? That may be more effort than I would be willing to put in… FWIW, running on the WAN, snort does pick up on stuff: IE memory corruption, MSExchange (or Outlook?) exploits... so far all from the web-client category. I don't remember the exact rules that triggered a site block, and since I just rebooted the firewall and snort seems to forget about blocked sites across restarts they're not showing up right now.

    No  :( At the moment I have not been an achieve stable work the p3scan port. (p3scan > clamd:TCP) With clamlib this worked very perfect, but clamlib+havp && clamlib+p3scan take many resources and slowly going startup. I consider acceptable only 1 clamd:TCP socket for all applications (only one clamd daemon in system). Maybe next version will be fixed. http://diskatel.narod.ru/p3scan/

    @ToxIcon: I am having some issues Denyhost is not blocking anything  its running but their is no log showing it blocking I reinstall same issue also snort Snort-Dev 2.8.4.1_7 pk v. 1.8 stop blocking their is nothing showing up in the block list but I see some alerts, if i go under rules and enable some snort rules and Emerging Threats rules snort stop running and it wont start is their a script to enable all rules instead of having to click the x to enable them tried the old script but did not work could do with some help thanks DenyHosts quit working for me last month and I've tried dozens of times to get it up and running with no luck. I do believe it's related to Snort-Dev but I don't know that for sure. JamesDean seems to be busy and has disappeared from the board.
