    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.

    @vicking said in No blocks on IP: Is it a bad idea to have the action set to deny both instead of inbound only? Question is squarely for admin. Per the infoblock which explains, in part, the "Deny Inbound", "Deny Outbound", and "Deny Both" actions: 'Deny' Rules: 'Deny' rules create high priority 'block' or 'reject' rules on the stated interfaces. They don't change the 'pass' rules on other interfaces. Typical uses of 'Deny' rules are: Deny Both - blocks all traffic in both directions, if the source or destination IP is in the block list Deny Inbound/Deny Outbound - blocks all traffic in one direction unless it is part of a session started by traffic sent in the other direction. Does not affect traffic in the other direction. One way 'Deny' rules can be used to selectively block unsolicited incoming (new session) packets in one direction, while still allowing deliberate outgoing sessions to be created in the other direction. In other words: When set to "Deny Inbound", incoming connection requests from WAN hosts are blocked and therefore no state will be created. However a LAN host can still establish state to an otherwise listed IP. If set to "Deny Outbound", outgoing connection requests from LAN hosts are blocked and therefore no state will be created. However an incoming connection request from an otherwise listed IP to an 'open' WAN port can still establish state. If set to "Deny Both", both incoming connection requests and outbound connections requests are blocked and therefore no state will be created regardless of connection direction.

    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 ?

    @elvisimprsntr Updated 25.07.1 to 1.90.6_1, copied and pasted from @elvisimprsntr's post: pkg add -f https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:15:amd64/latest/All/tailscale-1.90.6_1.pkg (Why it worked this time and not on previous updates: Over the last couple of days, I ran into the "Shared object "libutil.so.10, not found..." error that triggered the version 25.07.1 update issues some of us have been having. After I fixed that error, I decided to go back to the usual update method, and it worked.)

    @andresbraga if you still have the firewall rules as you posted, then I don't know why from the laptop you can't ping the pfSense Wireguard address 10.10.6.1 nor the pfSense gateway 10.10.1.1 What is the routing table of the laptop. And I would run a packet capture on pfSense and check what you see if you run the ping to 10.10.1.1 or 10.10.6.1.

    1. System > User Manager - change admin password. In the shell, admin == root. 2. Squid uses the DNS servers from System > General only, especially if it were started/stopped. Double check /etc/resolv.conf 3. Just uncheck transparent, it will effectively be off for users (no longer grabbing their traffic) 4. No.

    So did see this: Aug 9 00:06:56 kernel: pid 115 (snort), uid 0: exited on signal 11 Aug 9 00:06:56 snort[115]: [125:2:1] (ftp_telnet) Invalid FTP Command [Classification: Potentially Bad Traffic] [Priority: 2] {TCP} XXX.xxx:17467 -> YYY.yyy:21 Aug 9 00:06:56 snort[115]: [125:2:1] (ftp_telnet) Invalid FTP Command [Classification: Potentially Bad Traffic] [Priority: 2] {TCP} XXX.xxx:17467 -> YYY.yyy:21 Aug 9 00:06:41 snort[115]: Aug 9 00:06:41 snort[115]: Aug 9 00:06:41 snort[115]: --== Reload Complete ==-- Aug 9 00:06:41 snort[115]: --== Reload Complete ==-- So to me this looks like right after reloading after new rules are applied. Any thoughts would be great! Thanks

    Yes, tap is fixed properly in 2.1. The package was created by backporting some of the fixes, though not all were brought back to 2.0.x

    You can add that SID to the supression list. It's the way the iphone makes it's connection that is triggering the SSP rule. SSP is Windows only tech. see: http://groups.google.com/group/snortusers/tree/browse_frm/month/2011-04/931943bd96ceb0a1?rnum=91&_done=%2Fgroup%2Fsnortusers%2Fbrowse_frm%2Fmonth%2F2011-04%3F

    Hello Mr. Developer please add a verbose or debug output of rules which are not compatible or not working with snort , as an clear error log because pfsense 2.0.1 i386 nanobsd vga + snort 2.9.2.3 pkg v. 2.5.1 and if activated from the categories/rules "snort_attack-responses.rules" snort wont start and quit with a not showing in that direction, error message. you got the error message as in the thread above pgrep: Pidfile `/var/run/snort_pppoe139459.pid' is empty i have activated all categories/Rules without,(not activated), the "snort_attack-responses.rules" rules and now snort works so far … and btw "Enable Sensitive Data" under preprocessor is hard tobac :) :) thanks ren22

    http can be done with any one of these packages you have tested. https can be done with apache or bypassed by varnish(new gui on development too) 25, 465 can be done with pfsense native load balancer or haproxy.

    Finally getting back to the original post, I think this is what's causing the issue: kernel: pid 31475 (snort), uid 0, was killed: out of swap space As a test, I disabled updates.  As expected, snort ran fine until I did a manual update.  The error above was what showed up after running the update.  Restarting snort by hand brought success. Is the swap space error helpful?  I do not have a swap partition on my install, as I have significant excess RAM.
