    Request for Continued Support of Squid Package Dear Netgate Team, Could we please continue to support the Squid package? The upstream project has already resolved the known security issues, and it appears the main task remaining is updating the package to accommodate the recent PHP changes affecting the status page and address the decode issue. I’m unsure how to address this on my end and would greatly appreciate any guidance. Has anyone else looked into this, or is there a fix currently in progress? Thank you for your time and support.

    @NRgia said in Suricata on Pfsense: @bmeeks Thank you for what you did for Snort or Suricata. I'm not sure what you want me to do on Redmine, due to is a bug tracker. My question is for Product Management, which I will ask it here to be public: What is the plan for these 2 packages, Suricata and Snort? Thank you Yes, Redmine is for both bug reports and feature requests. Asking for the Suricata binary to be updated to the latest 7.0.11 version from upstream is a legitimate Redmine request. I would suggest simply asking for the binary version update instead of asking about future Netgate strategy (such as the support plans for the packages). Strategy discussions typically don't get very far because they deal with proprietary information or plans that a company may not want to publicly discuss. Redmine is where the Netgate developer team tracks all the code changes they make for pfSense. They will see Redmine reports much quicker than a forum post.

    @Leon-Straathof Data retention settings are handled inside of ntopng. Documentation here. Pay attention to the RRD note. Also, if you've turned on some of the slice and dice time series information (is off by default), I'd suggest turning them back off. These balloon the storage requirements and are of little actual use.

    @tinfoilmatt said in Failed or invalid Mime Type: [application/SIMH-tape-data|0]: (ASN data is IPinfo, not Maxmind) Thats correct but "GeoLite2-Country" is from Maxmind ... (that confused me) I'm considering simply adding "application/SIMH-tape-data" to the list to test. Thats what i tought too ... I'll try when I have the time for it ... Edit: I can confirm - adding "application/SIMH-tape-data" to the list at line 257 in /usr/local/pkg/pfblockerng/pfblockerng.inc did the trick - no more error! Edit: OK, problem resolved but I would like to know, whats the cause for that error! (SIMH-tape-data sounds like a "blast from the past" ...) Thanks a lot!

    @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.

    I also crashed my system yesterday with an ACME update. I can't say whether I had Crowdsec installed or not. But I've tried things like that in the past, so it's quite possible.

    I have Wireguard installed on my firewalls. I have about 12 firewalls and most of them connect back to the main firewall which allows the connection to the servers in the main building. I setup a tunnel on each and then added each location as a peer on the Main firewall. This seemed to work except that the gateway. unde3r Monitor IP it only allows one IP address. So the first one works and shows connected fine, but the other 2 are red and do not connect. Everything seems to work until I added a 3rd peer and then the 1st peer showed as if it was offline even though it looked fine and I was able to connect to devices on that network. Am I supposed to add multiple gateways to the Main firewall so that shows as up? Is this the right way for the tunnels between the buildings which need access will work - By adding a tunnel at that location and just adding a peer to the main location?

    I was looking at something else in ntopng today and went ahead and tested/committed a fix so that redis now only binds to localhost. Still worked fine for me so I pushed the new version out for everyone.

    Probably not. Personally, I would leave the FTP server running and only enable the firewall rule/port forward when it is needed.

    That "error" is harmless, there is likely some other different error happening. Post the full output from the package installation window when it fails.

    That depends on what you mean by "keep this package up to date". If you mean keeping the package itself current/updated, there is no way to keep it updated that does not also potentially compromise the integrity of the package set on pfSense. One of several reasons we do not recommend installing packages from other repositories, including FreeBSD's own repositories. You can reinstall it by hand when you know an update is available. FreeBSD packages are good about not clobbering your own files/data when uninstalling/updating/installing again. If you mean keeping it across pfSense updates, that's even less certain. You will likely have to manually reinstall it after each update.

    This thread was specifically for people who were developing packages previously who needed information on converting existing packages for use on pfSense 2.3 in the new pkg and bootstrap framework. Not for general package creation questions.

    johnpoz we get it, you dont like dnscrypt, so why are you in this thread? If someone wants to run dnscrypt on their own kit, its none of your business. My setup on my existing router which I plan to migrate to pfsense is sort of like this local caching resolver -> forwards uncached requests to my own dnscrypt endpoint of which that resolves out on the internet. and yes I know what dnssec is and the mode is nothing to do with dnssec. uozewe -I am willing to send something your way for the work, a cli only package is good enough for me, so just the binary, rc script and maybe sample configuration.  I got no issue editing unbound and what not to add forwarder manually.

    Your pkg metadata is very out of date if it's trying to fetch a file that old. Try running "pkg update -f" from a shell prompt and then see if it works. It should be pulling version 1.3.13, not 1.3.8.

    I don't see any version of this software available for freebsd. If NUT works you don't need anything other to be installed on firewall.

    Most are there, some are not. snort/suricata are not there. There isn't enough horsepower to run them and I think they wouldn't compile, either. Our hands are tied somewhat based on what will and what will not compile on ARM and from the RAM/CPU limits. For example: Squid should work, Squid+ClamAV would not be viable.

    @PiBa: Look under the 'actions' to configure 'what' to do if a acl is matched. There are only a very few acl's that have extra options under the + button. Thanks for the hint. I didn't found any action for url rewrite, so I guess I have to write a custom action. But I didn't find any working custom action to to this. I think I would have to use a "http-request set-path" action, but I didn't find any working examples for my rewrite. Could you please provide an example for a custom action that simply rewrites the url path from /MyPath to /? Edit: I found a working action. I've added this to the backend: reqrep ^([^\ ])\ /MyPath/(.) \1\ /\2
