    @johnpoz said in Please help to configure HAProxy to serve certifficate on internal LAN too: Yeah - what part do you not understand if you always resolve nextcloud.domain.tld so that it hits your haproxy on your pfsense wan IP are you not getting? You have 2 options - use a different domain internally and always go to nextcloud.publicdomain.tld, or use the same domain internally as external and run into the problem of what IP it resolves to.. Change your local domain to say home.arpa or .internal or atleast something different than the public domain your using to point to pfsense wan IP on the public internet. You are shooting yourself in the foot trying to use the same domain externally as internally. There are ways around it, but they complicate the setup. For example you might be able to use views in unbound as one way to work around the problem. You could use only host entries for all your resources. But then again you run into a problem of using the fqdn for this service, now always pointing to your wan IP.. And that is great when you want to access the service haproxy is doing - but if you want to access that resource on some other service that haproxy doesn't handle - like say simple file sharing.. You are going to have problems. Since you clearly do not understand how any of this works - the simple solution is change the local domain you are using so it is not the same as the public domain you want to use to get to your nextcloud. This tone is outrageous directed at somebody who acknowledged right off the rip that English is not their first language. How many languages do you speak, John? And safely assuming it's only one—English of course—take it from a fellow English native that you'd do well to say more with less words. You otherwise were directing OP in the right direction in my opinion.

    @kabeda If memory serves, that old version of ntopng did not run as user ntopng, but as user nobody. There are lots of problems in that old version. Anyway, check the ownership and permissions of /var/db/ntopng and make sure it matches the user that ntopng runs as. You may need to set ownership of the entire hierarchy. Example: /usr/sbin/chown -R nobody:nobody /var/db/ntopng However, the better choice would be to upgrade to a more recent version.

    @netboy said in is something wrong with pfBlockerNG?: After my post, I "changed" DNSBL -> DNSBL mode from "unbound python mode" to "unbound mode" and so far i have no issues. Terrible idea. Moving backwards in development history there.

    @fjmp24 said in Notification: UPS ups battery is low: If I remove ignorelb directive, my UPS shuts down after 16 seconds This means your UPS is signaling a low battery. Either your battery is bad, or your UPS is bad. Most likely battery, but you never know. I suggest reaching out to Eaton support.

    I am using the DNS-Update method I have to use a DNS-Sleep of 5 minutes to let the letsencrypt txt dns record update propagate. During this 5 minutes the acme-webgui times out. when the acme-webgui times out the Action list is NOT executed. How can I solve this ? Would it maybe be an idea to let the acme.sh script execute the actions in the action list as a post-hook instead of the web-gui? Or maybe add an option to add post-hooks in the webUI ?

    @mightykong @CarlMRoss Looks like you might be experiencing https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale/issues/17793 I also have a 6100 + Tailscale 1.90.6 so I will test mine now. update: I don't seem to be having this problem, which is odd because I'm usually that one guy in a thousand who has the strange bug that nobody else can reproduce. Have you tried deleting the contents of /usr/local/pkg/tailscale/state ?

    Hi everyone, This is a noob question but already tried multiple and I hope some one can help with this. I have a Wireguard Tunnel configured and handshake is successfully performed and I can ping the server from the laptop but can't do it otherwise. Already deactivate the NAT feature and all the rules and no luck. Pfsense and this server is located in a Proxmox Server, laptop is a local. Any ideas? Thank you.

    Thank you for the reply but I found what was the problem. In the Interface / Lan menu, I had the IPv4 configuration type set to "Track Interface" for some reasons. I set it to "None" and the rules got automatically added in the Firewall/Rules section after enabling pfBlocker.

    Have you tried setting the logging option to either "Encode" or "Allow" ? strip: The whitespace characters are stripped out of the URL. This is the behavior recommended by RFC2396. deny: The request is denied. The user receives an "Invalid Request" message. allow: The request is allowed and the URI is not changed. The whitespace characters remain in the URI. encode: The request is allowed and the whitespace characters are encoded according to RFC1738. chop:The request is allowed and the URI is chopped at the first whitespace. With "squid3-dev" you could try with "forwarded_for transparent" typed into "Custom ACLS (Before_Auth)" field (and with the "Disable X-Forward" not selected off course.)

    I don't have a theory to explain what caused the out-of-memory message.  If this was a single event, it may just have been due to the phase of the moon relative to the spontaneous decay of a Higgs boson …  ;). If, on the other hand, it is a repeatable error for you, then some further investigation is called for.  I assume from the info provided in your first post this is a pfSense 2.2-BETA box.  Do you have any other packages running besides Snort?

    @wbennett77: I have Snort Alerts added on my Dashboard but it doesn't show the most recent alerts. Is this normal? Cheers! The Dashboard widget should show the most recent alerts, but it shows a composite consisting of all interfaces.  So if you have Snort enabled on LAN and WAN, and the "lines to display" in the widget set for 5, then it will show the 5 most recent alerts without regard to interface.  Stated another way, if the WAN had the most recent 5 alerts, then the widget would only show those. It would not show any of the LAN alerts if they were older than the most 5 recent WAN alerts.  The reverse is also true. Bill

    I've found Snorby to get the rule text right most of the time.  Glad you found that rules setting.  I forgot to point it out.  If you find out something from your other queries that you think needs changing in the Snort and Suricata packages with respect to Barnyard2, post back here or send me a PM.

    Hi, Thanks, my switches do support RADIUS, so I will see about switching that on. I was kind of expecting that pfSense would have the same kind of support for enabling RADIUS for any connectivity to it, maybe that was an incorrect assumption. Regards, Rob.

    @Hollander: 1. The thread you posted is clear. Except for the part about 'changeSID'. I have no clue what I am seeing, as in: it doesn't fit in my limited brain; either you have enabled SID's, or you have disabled them. Why the third list? The modifysid option is for actually changing the text of the rule body.  For example, you could change the "alert" keyword to "drop".  This will have more meaning once a true IPS mode is implemented.  Then, "alert" rules will simply print messages in the logs and on the ALERTS tab; but "drop" rules will be the ones that actually drop (or block) the offending traffic.  Today on pfSense any "alert" causes a block, but on a true IPS that is not the case.  Alerts are like notices and "drop" rules are the only ones that should block traffic.  You might for example only want alerts for rules that identify older versions of Java or something, but you would want drops for rules that identify known malware phoning home. As the Snort and Suricata packages exist today, the modifysid function is not really necessary yet. @Hollander: 2. Do you have thoughts on keeping separate SID-lists for Snort and Suricata? Or 'one list fits all'? (Does it? I don't know). This is an admin decision.  Just remember that there are many, many Snort rules that contain keywords or rule options that Suricata does not recognize.  No sense even trying to load those rules on Suricata. @Hollander: 3. Do you have thoughts on the lists having exclusive SID's (-> if a SID is on list 1 it shouldn't be on list two, and vice versa), or are there good reasons to do things differently? If you are using only literal SIDs in the files, then it does not make sense to put the same SID in both files.  However, when you use the more advanced PCRE options; it is conceivable to match the same SID.  In those situations, the setting of the SID STATE ORDER control becomes important. @Hollander: 4. How can one manage the part of new SID's appearing after an update? Is there a 'new SID's added during update' list somewhere? Because these need to be processed into the github-list one way or the other I guess(?) Each time the rules are updated the vendors post an updated Change Log on their web sites. Bill
