    @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.

    Ah, I changed the action to deny both and now I also have a wan firewall rule, which I also had on OPNsense. With this wan rule I can see the blocks already coming now! Is it a bad idea to have the action set to deny both instead of inbound only?

    @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 ?

    @luckman212, Thanks for your suggestion. I will check what I have in /usr/local/pkg/tailscale/state, and also the RAM disk settings others have brought up. I could learn more about where Tailscale and pfSense store system files. If I find anything worth sharing, I will let you know.

    Updated to reflect push of Snort Dashboard Widget ver 0.3.4 A new version of the Snort Dashboard Widget will hopefully go out soon is now out.  The new version is 0.3.4.  If you have the Snort Dashboard Widget installed, you most definitely want to update it to this latest version! I just discovered a rather nasty little bug that causes the Snort Dashboard Widget to crash the package startup for Snort upon a reboot of the firewall.  It only shows up when the widget is installed.  I have tested the fix for this and it works.  I inadvertently "included" an incorrect include file as part of the uninstall routine I added for the widget… :-[ Bill

    And perhaps SARG package can offer you some more specific information but you have to check this by yourself because I don't have any experience with SARG.

    There is some dialogue on freeradius mailing lists: http://lists.freeradius.org/pipermail/freeradius-users/2013-April/066212.html Alan Dekok is one of the developers of freeradius. He is an absolute expert in freeradius but - in my opinion - he is not very polite when posting on the list. As far as I understand him you could add something like the following in "../raddb/policy.conf" if (User-Password) { update request { User-Password := "%{tolower:%{User-Password}}" } } Perhaps you cann follow this conversation and test and if you found a solution post it here that we can implement this into GUI.

    The command you run only downloads the sqlite program/libraries, it does not update the PHP module. Give a 2.1 snapshot a try, it should have a more up-to-date PHP library for sqlite.

    @costasppc: Snort and Squid are not recommended in embedded installations. You will have memory hogs. Also Squid needs disk space for caching, which is not much in CF card installations. Best regards Kostas I agree for Snort.  It can easily consume more than 1 GB of RAM just by itself with a moderate rule set.  I've had some 1 GB RAM virtual machines used in my Snort testing start swapping out to disk with Snort and a full set of rules running.

    Quoted Bill for the Open Issues. Wanted to seperate the two threads :) @bmeeks: Folks: I think we may be narrowing down the list of open issues in the current Snort package version 2.5.6.  Here are items that I am aware of still open.  Actually I think these are all holdovers from the 2.5.5 package.  I have working fixes for these in my current test environment.  I just want to be sure I've caught everything major before I push out a 2.5.7 package update. OPEN ISSUES 1.  Snort not saving edits to the Rules Update and Remove Blocked Offenders cron jobs. 2.  Snapshot updates on 2.1-BETA systems do not fully complete the Snort rules update post-upgrade and Snort does not start until a manual rules update is performed. 3.  Snort not auto-starting after a package reinstall with prior saved settings. Did I miss any big ones in my list?  I wanted to double-check and see if anything else was lurking out there before pushing another update. Bill

    Hi! I have had big problems with my siproxd but your guide has helped alot. The problem I had were that the state between my firewall and my sip provider kept dropping. After I set the rule up that you suggested it worked much better and the state help up for some days. But this morning it was down when I came to work. I have 6 phones which are all registered in siproxd's interface. I have setup the rule as I think you did: on the Wan side the sip provider is set a source and my wan adress on the destination, port 5060 over TCP/UDP. Are there anything I can setup for forcing the state not to go down, much like a ping can keep an VPN connection up. As of now from what I can understand it keeps up as long as possible but nothing stops it from going down if the resources are needed elsewhere. Perhaps there is a way to get the state up again if it goes down? The only way that I found to get the state up again is to make an outgoing call from one of the phones. Hope for some help. Cheers! //Peter

    @nathanpinotti: There's a VPN rule allowing all traffic to anywhere. Could it mess my LAN rule up? Not at all. Lan traffic pass by lan rules and floating tab, not vpn interface.

    @sronsen: This error message almost always means you have mixed 32-bit and 64-bit libraries on the system.  These "unsupported layout" errors have happened before for many other packages besides just Snort, and each time it's caused by having a mix of 32-bit and 64-bit stuff on a system.  In particular this error can happen when 64-bit libs wind up on a 32-bit box.  I can't tell you how this might have happened, but I'm pretty sure that's what is wrong now. I had to reformat the drive and reinstall pfSense, but I finally got Snort working.  If I could only figure out why the pfSense installation won't work from a USB CDROM, I wouldn't be so put off, but the installation asks for a mount device and fails when a valid one is entered.  If I plug in a SATA CDROM drive with the same disc, it just installs to the proper drive without asking me anything.  This is on a rack-mounted PC w/o any external bays, so I have to unmount the PC and open it up to rerun the installation.  Ugh!  I think I'll pass on pfSebse and Snort updates for the next year. I installed my current config from usb. My 1u system has no optical and I didnt have a usb cdrom. Mine installed just fine using the usb install method.. Maybe try that instead of cdrom?

    i have re-installed bandwidthd and it is working now. However, I ended up using ntop cause that is the only bandwidth monitoring that support multi-wan.
