    @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.

    Hello team, I have a Netgate 8200 running 24.11-RELEASE (amd64) with Suricata 7.0.8_5 package installed. Suricata doesn't seem to start. It loops to red once I press the Play button on the interface. It leaves no logs in the System logs, it leaves no logs in suricata.log at /var/log/suricata/suricata_ovpns933787/suricata.log I tried launching it manually: # /usr/local/bin/suricata -V or # /usr/local/bin/suricata -c /usr/local/etc/suricata/suricata_33787_ovpns9/suricata.yaml -i suricata_ovpns933787 and I get this output ld-elf.so.1: /usr/local/bin/suricata: Undefined symbol "__strlcpy_chk@FBSD_1.8" Thanks in advance, Dara

    @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 ?

    @LaUs3r Yeah, I added those IPs, but after restarting pfSense, the WireGuard status says “handshake failed.” Also, when I do nslookup us-bos.prod.surfshark.com, I get two different sets of IPs. For example: • The first time I get 43.225.189.108 and 43.225.189.118 • The next time I get 149.40.50.216 and 149.40.50.290 So I was wondering can I add both sets of IPs, and put a “0” at the end of each, and use /24 for both IPs? I reached out to Surfshark support, and they sent me their official pfSense WireGuard setup guide see the guide here in the guide they mention 10.14.0.2 for static routes

    Thats all I can think of unless there is something unique about the website that hates squid.  Maybe just bypass the site for squid. BTW - Why is the loopback interface selected to bind too? Why not just the LAN?

    @kejianshi: Like I said, the real problem is that it will be hard for me to know when I have a real problem and when its a dansguardian thing Understood. There are a few situations where DG can cause problems even when properly setup and configured. In order to solve that issue, I implemented a bypass page. I know DG has it's own bypass capability, but I wanted to make sure DG would be completely out of the flow if I chose to bypass it. Here's how it works… When you get blocked, DG presents a web page prompting your for an ID and password. If you enter the correct credentials (currently just check against a text file of user/password), it adds the IP address to a list of "unfiltered" IP's that do not get redirected to DG (via the firewall rules). It then manually force the rules to be reloaded. There is a little cron job that removes the IP from the list 15 minutes later.

    @jimp: You cannot. What you're trying to do is just not possible with pfSense. Hi jimp, Thx for your replies.Having a network of pcs and a router on the same network please advice me which is the best configuration so as pfsense to be used.I don't need to set it up as a firewall nor as something else. All I need is to install a pfsense appliance between my network and the router so as to have a transparent web filtering without the need of ip changes on my network. Why wan port has to be on different ip rage than nat's ? If it is impossible please advice for the best alternative solution thx in advance what I'd like :  ROUTER=========PFSENSE/WEBFILTERING============PC                       192.168.1.1/24========transparent ================.X/24

    Looks like the pfBlocker widget uses the description for matching packet stats,, if the rule does not contain the aliasname matching packets will not add to the widget counters.

    I thought about that, however PFSense is sitting between my modem and router as a firewall and does not handle DHCP \ Traffic Shaping. I chose this because the router I am using has a really good QoS and I love the gui that shows real time usage. I am going to table this for now. Getting ready to leave town for a while and there is no reason to worry about it until I can get at least one more WAN connection to handle the traffic anyway. Thanks for the suggestion.

    Hi, I run version 2.0.3. Package list doesn't show me "squid3-squidguard" but only "squidGuard". Search engine on the whole forum for keyword "squid3-squidguard" brings me only this thread. Is their a second repository to configure ? Or should I move to 2.1-RC release ? Thanks for the support  ;). Phil

    @rjcrowder: Would you (or anyone for that matter) be able to give me a quick overview? Or point me in the best place to look to get started? so… it looks to me like the problem must be in the install of the clamav package (see /var/db/pkg/clamav-0.97.6). Likewise, I'd conjecture that the problem is based on something that is done via the "+CONTENTS" file... Can anyone give me a clue how this is used / interpreted during the install process?

    The following error was encountered while trying to retrieve the URL: https://www.gmail.com/ Failed to establish a secure connection to 173.194.45.85 The system returned: [No Error] (TLS code: SQUID_X509_V_ERR_DOMAIN_MISMATCH) Certificate does not match domainname: /C=US/ST=California/L=Mountain View/O=Google Inc/CN=mail.google.com This proxy and the remote host failed to negotiate a mutually acceptable security settings for handling your request. It is possible that the remote host does not support secure connections, or the proxy is not satisfied with the host security credentials. Your cache administrator is admin@localhost. but works with https://mail.google.com/mail/

    I had wondered if it would be possible to build a https site with SSL and wrap it into the package so that when people get blocked it can divert them to a SSL/HTTPS blocking notification page.  The cert wouldn't match the website typed into the browser originally so it would react like most browsers react to a self signed cert but it wouldn't be just "error - sorry" message. Just an idea.  I know little about how you packages are constructed, no idea how tough this is.  HTTPS is designed to keep people from being the "Man in the middle", so I feel your pain.

    The error was showing squid2 instead of squid3. That's why it's was not working.

    You may need to enable ipv6 to get squid 3.3.5 listening on 2.0.3 as official package install is compiled with ipv6.
