    @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 ?

    @subhan2k said in [Guide] Setup a wireguard tunnel to VPN provider (multiple VPN tunnel setup): I tried following your guide to set up the Surfshark WireGuard server configuration in pfSense as default gateway, but I got stuck at the static routes step. In my case, the endpoint isn’t a numeric IP — it’s listed as us-bna.prod.surfshark.com. How should I add this to the static routes? In my configuration: Endpoint: us-bna.prod.surfshark.com Address: 10.14.0.2/16 So what exactly should I enter in the static routes? after switching the default gateway from WAN_DHCP to the WireGuard VPN my Interent doesn't work so adding static routes is mandotary (Im using inside vmware) nslookup us-bna.prod.surfshark.com Server: 127.0.0.53 Address: 127.0.0.53#53 Non-authoritative answer: Name: us-bna.prod.surfshark.com Address: 82.26.162.48 Name: us-bna.prod.surfshark.com Address: 82.26.162.53 That should do it Just take 1 of the 2. And in general, don't use domain names but only IP. Before you start, choose 1 of the 2 IPs and use it for the whole process

    @justplayinn Have not yet upgraded. Have you tried removing and reinstalling the packages? There is no "downgrade" path. To accomplish that you'll need to reinstall and restore your config file from backup.

    @steveits Less for benchmarking and more for stressing. I want the CPU cycles included in that test. I can run iperf from desktop to server over the vpn, but this I want to see if HIS internet is to blame. I have a number of clients all on Verizon FIOS all claiming their clouds are slow. Verizon is very fractured right now and they lack people who can understand what you are talking about in the support space.

    @scourtney2000 But if you're telling the ping which source to use and it works.... sounds like a route issue. Can you post pics of your configs, gateways and routes?

    @flat4 you don't sign up for it - you set it up.. https://github.com/Tautulli/Tautulli/wiki/Notification-Agents-Guide#email You will notice the gmail instructions call out using app password Then you setup which of your users get the "newsletter" I use BCC instead of CC so that users don't see all the others users email addresses.

    @hehob60672 said in Snort alert only on priority 1: Is there any way to make Snort generate alerts only for rules with priority 1? No, unfortunately the PRIORITY field is not an option for alert suppression/thresholding. If the only rules you want to even inspect traffic are those marked as PRIORITY 1, then you could perhaps use the pattern matching features on the SID MGMT tab to select only rules matching that criteria to enable.

    It's built into the FreeBSD package system. It would be silly for us not to carry that across.

    Update I have added an installable package which manually fetches and installs monit from the mmonit.com website, this gets around the missing monit package issue (2) However issue (1) remains, but this package can be added and if you're comfortable manually editing your monitrc file via SSH then the package should work for you, I am running it now. https://github.com/indgy/pfSense-pkg-monit/releases/tag/5.30.0_5-alpha
