    @btspce Thank you. Do you know if this will be the process to follow moving forward? Normal users are required to open tickets in order to get updates? Or is there a point of contact that we can nudge for this cases.

    @Antibiotic No it’s not possible with NtopNG as it is not a Netflow collector. You need nProbe for that which will “translate” recieved netflows into flows that NtopNG understands and can visualize (with very very little detail might I add as Netflows has no additonal information apart from sender/reciever and volume). The NtopNG package and the product in general is more geared towards visualising and recording traffic details from actual packet captures. This contains MUCH more metadata about the sessions than netflows (DNS names, protocol information and myriads of other things). But pffSense Plus has a builtin Netflow exporter if you have an external netflow collector on hand.

    @Gertjan Thanks for your reply – that’s also my impression. The point is: I don’t really see any lists right now that are actually “maintained” in the sense of being actively cleaned up, checked for dead domains, categorized, etc. That’s why my main interest is more about the demand: Would curated lists really be a game changer for admins? Would they be more helpful than what’s available today, or are most people already using other alternatives? If so, which ones? And from your perspective, what would be your expectation towards “community lists”? (e.g. reliability, update frequency, categories, fewer false positives?)

    @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.

    Anyone else happen to notice that when configuring BFD, if you create a peer and select a profile - after save, re-edit the peer and the Profile is not represented. It appears as "None". You have to check the raw config to determine if the profile was actually assigned to the peer. This is on 2.8.1 (all packages up to date as of the date/time of this post). UPDATE: if re-edit and save (without re-configuring the profile none to what you want) - the save will strip the profile from the peer.

    Hi All, I use HAProxy to redirect to a range of https internal resources, this works really well at the moment through the WAN where I have source limits set up, and I can connect to the internal resources from limited external IP Addresses. Given I have tailscale I would like to basically be able to put custom dns entries in to point these hostnames to my pfsense tailscale IP4 address (100.89.148.118) but I am not having any luck getting this working. At the moment, I am just trying to connect to HAProxy using https://100.89.148.118 but it is getting blocked by the firewall. Sep 11 11:55:58 tailscale0 Default deny rule IPv4 (1000000103) 100.89.148.10:53148 100.89.148.118:443 TCP:S I have tried with and without NAT redirecting internally to 127.0.0.1, and I also have rules set up to allow any traffic to and from my tailnets (defined in an alias) but I still keep getting these connections from my other tailscale machines being blocked on the pfsense machine. Can someone give me some pointers on what I am missing because I can see the requests are coming through to the pfsense machine, and in theory the rules should allow it through but I cant see why they don't. I do have tailscale ACL in place, but clearly that is not an issue as the requests are making it through to the firewall. 0/0 B IPv4+6 TCP/UDP TailNets * TailNets * * none Allow across Tailnets 0/0 B IPv4+6 TCP/UDP * * * 443 (HTTPS) * none Allow Tailscale IP4 I also tried adding a EasyRule but because the tailscale0 interface doesn't exist in pfsense it throws an error and won't let me add that rule. Appreciate any help or tips, Cheers.

    @HFADmin If it is no Site2Site-VPN then you don't need any gateways in the first place... If that is true but you want to monitor the connection then you could create dummy-gateways just to ping the remote ip-addresses.

    1.2.3 is no longer supported. Squid+SquidGuard on NanoBSD on 1.2.3 even less so. There could be some remnant of a past installation somewhere on the drive in /usr/local/pkg/ or in the config.xml that needs cleaned out. Not enough info to say, but you should really be running the latest version (2.1.x) and not 1.2.x.

    Updated to pkg 2.2.5 yesterday, Squid refuses to start. However the error message has changed, it is now : php: /status_services.php: The command '/usr/local/etc/rc.d/squid.sh stop' returned exit code '1', the output was '2014/06/10 13:23:33| parse_peer: token='round-robinssl' FATAL: Bungled /usr/pbi/squid-i386/etc/squid/squid.conf line 98: cache_peer 10.0.0.10 parent 443 0 proxy-only no-query no-digest originserver login=PASSTHRU round-robinssl sslflags=DONT_VERIFY_PEER front-end-https=auto name=rvp_exchange Squid Cache (Version 3.3.10): Terminated abnormally.

Can I delete this line ? I could not find any point in the GUI pointing to this retired server and I have never configured a chache_peer. Thank you for your hints cheers thafener

    @fearnothing: OK, posts since last noob question just got reset back to zero  :-[. Now it's beginning to make sense. Tutorials are very good at saying "Do A, then B, then C" but when you ask them why they tend to just go quiet. [/quote] Don't despair.  There are lots of knowledgeable folks here ready to help.  None of us know it all.  I read just today a quote that is appropriate – "everyone you meet knows something you do not".  A corollary would be "all of us are noobs about lots of stuff"… ;).  The whole IDS/IPS world can be a confusing maze to navigate.  Add to that all the wonderful open source options out there and it can be daunting.  One downside of open source software is most developers are happier writing and tweaking code than producing usable documentation.  I include myself in that characterization... :-[ That last comment reminds me to mention that an update to the documentation for Snort and Suricata on the pfSense Doc Wiki is needed.  I started some updates for Snort a month or two back, but have not gotten anything posted for Suricata yet.  If there is a willing user out there, any help would be welcomed.  You can contact the pfSense guys to get a Wiki account that allows updating.

    Install Imspector from package, and then install it from shell with pkg_add . depend on your Mysql Server , you need to install the proper version of mysql_client. pkg_add will not change version of package, just install it manually with freeBSD Package manager.

    I have intermittent issues with Snort Interfaces Exiting on Error, usually following a Rules Update. When it happens it happens to several boxes at a time. But the logs don't show very much information to help diagnose why its failing. I think it would be good to have a "debug" option where more details logs could be used as required to help diagnose issues better. All of my boxes are on Static so they don't renew their addresses.

    @foresthus: How many lists can be added to pfblocker? Whre is the limit? I haven't seen any information to state that it has a limit on the number of Lists? I have a box with about 30 main lists (on the "List" Tab) and within the lists, I have multiple lists per. Only thing you need to watch for is the max number of IPs in the Tables. Advanced:Firewall:Firewall/NAT - Firewall Maximum Table Entries Maximum number of table entries for systems such as aliases, sshlockout, snort, etc,        combined. Note: Leave this blank for the default.

    Those rules were evaluated as false positives on "closed" networks (limited number of users), all trusted. They mostly fired on wifi clients, hence the "wifi clients moving around" comment. That "category" of rules (weird traffic) was generally either caused by a wifi client moving from point A to point B and missing a couple of packets OR more rarely by suricata itself, that is after suricata has cleared the states for a blocked host. Technically the firewall has no record of an active connection, which triggers the "weird traffic" category. As I said, false positives. Disable. Note: By category I'm talking about my categories. There are 3 categories: 1)Rules that should have their creators exiled from earth, subcategories idiotic rules (simple http request), stupidly outdated rules (firefox 3.x rules). 2)Weird traffic rules, includes "unknown" traffic, or theoretically impossible traffic (in theory, theory and practice are equal. Practically they are not) and finally 3) Rules that their creators should be honored with nobel prices and generally thought of as humanity's $deities.
