    Retested on 24.11-RELEASE (amd64) all seems to work. So it seems right to file a bug for this issue.

    @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'm not sure where that error might be coming from, but it would not likely be relating to a user in the pfSense user manager, but a user in the FreeRADIUS settings. You might need to take a backup, edit out the affected settings, restore that, and then try again.

    just guessing, but if I was configuring a business VPN server for remote access such as Pulse, I'd probably have my server setup to disallow clients connecting through proxies as they break the security.

    No. There is no package for it, and no plans that I am aware of to include it or even to make it available for installation in that way. There is a request open here: https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/9044

    That config file is very comparable with the Windows Registry, or a file system for that matter. Leftovers are not bad thing, they are just not used any more. The file tends to be somewhat bigger. pfSense settings often get removed are changed during upgrade. Settings - entries in the config.xml - created by packages, on the other hand, are most often not removed when uninstalling.

    Yep. That confimes : @Gertjan said in No package available in Available Package: Most known reason : pfSense itself can't resolve anymore. Because : @Gertjan said in No package available in Available Package: Popular expression : you broke the DNS .... so it can't find updates and package information (these Netgate's server IPs are not hard coded in the code, they use URLs). You have the solution already ;)

    I was thinking about similar setup, haproxy + suricata Frontend: SSL Offloading, Type: http/https Offloading, Public Cert Backend: Adress+Port 80, SSL no Not sure about snort, but suricata can inspect openvpn interface. I would connect webserver via openvpn to pfsense. Traffic would be encrypten within vpn tunnel but it would be still http, which can be fully inspected by suricata I tested it and it was worked. but i am not sure if there is any other security caveat i didn't count with, of course that vpntunnel would need to be extra secured.

    @u444665 said in Basic FTP server Package for pfSense: using Captive Portal which works perfectly, as long as you allow all remaining devices 1 by 1. Normally ..... a captive portal should be run on a dedicated interface (OPTx). Everybody on the 'non-trusted' captive portal interface and up to you if they 'merit' a place on a more trusted LAN (OPTy) interface. Or even LAN - if they are really trustworthy.

    Goto [image: 1576080801221-af2c14fd-b182-431d-a85e-8fd9d65e53d6-image.png] and help yourself ^^ Btw : This is the FreeBSD 11.2 => so you wind up using "syslog-ng-3.14.1_1". Netgate (pfSense) does not develop FreeBSD, they 'use' it from FreeBSD.org and take it 'as is' with some packages wrapped up to they can be installed on pfSense using the pfSense GUI. Also : this is a firewall, so priority 1 - 2 and 3 are 'security' and 'stability', so you will never find the latest version nginx, php or whatever other package.
