    @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 ?

    do you have a guide for setting up a Multi-Hop VPN inside pfSense (running on VMware)? Right now, I have an extra server running OpenVPN, and I want to route it through a Multi-Hop setup. Do you know how to do it? I’ve also heard that Multi-Hop setups are prone to more leaks, so it needs to be configured properly.

    @Supermule: Setup running Vlans?? Could it be possible to "share" or make a template for rules and thereby quickly deploy rules and setup for VLAN'S on Pfsense? Some sort of "rules pool" to share among interfaces in Snort so the rules doesnt load multiple when running Snort on VLAN'S… Intriguing idea.  You're talking about essentially a template file that has a rule configuration set and maybe some other settings.  You create the template once and then save it to disk.  You can then apply the template to any interface (or VLAN) by just selecting it from a list.  Is that the general idea?

    @simby: Any help, sugestion? or where is snort config file? Post any Snort messages from the system log. I suspect you need to enable one or more per preprocessors if you have enabled every single rule. Depending on the power of your hardware, it can take Snort up to a minute or more to start up if you enable all the rules.  Are you sure you are waiting long enough? By the way, it is never a good idea to enable and run all the rules. You will likely get a lot of false positives.  You should pick only the rules necessary to cover your environment.

    I had some issues as well. But after a re-install all started working for me. I also saw an issue where it was not working with firefox and only with chrome. Have you try a different browser?

  • Reverse-Resolving IP to Domain Name, Then Blocking?

    @jimp: They block it by forward resolution, not reverse. OpenDNS sees the DNS query for www.badplace.com, and returns a record that sends the client somewhere else or nowhere at all. They don't block things by IP and they never see a host record in the query, it's all in DNS (sort of like the DNS proxy I described) Ah, that makes sense! Hmm… That (I would think) would be much easier than using Squid's method of doing it. Just force clients to direct their DNS queries through pfSense, compare the URLs to a blacklist, and return the IP address of a block page, rather than screwing with certificates and stuff... Do you know of any free solutions outside of pfSense that do this? I'm looking around for one, and haven't seen one yet.
