    I have struggled with the log sizes getting too big and then the web pages refusing to list things on them (alerts/blocks pages show empty in UI). Clearing the logs manually instantly fixes the UI issue. I think the problem is the fact that logs can grow quite quickly and that relying on the log rotation can lead to a (very minimal) denial of service type event. I've thought about mucking with how often it rotates but as long as I'm not being legit DDOS'd it is just a nuisance. Suricata still clearly works. The firewall itself clearly works. The only real problem is UI issues when attempting to do a real investigation or troubleshoot. One can work around that manually. Of course somebody will simply say turn suricata off on the external interface. No. Occasionally good research happens there.

    @Antibiotic No it’s not possible with NtopNG as it is not a Netflow collector. You need nProbe for that which will “translate” recieved netflows into flows that NtopNG understands and can visualize (with very very little detail might I add as Netflows has no additonal information apart from sender/reciever and volume). The NtopNG package and the product in general is more geared towards visualising and recording traffic details from actual packet captures. This contains MUCH more metadata about the sessions than netflows (DNS names, protocol information and myriads of other things). But pffSense Plus has a builtin Netflow exporter if you have an external netflow collector on hand.

    @BiloxiGeek said in DNSBL and IPv6: Does it just follow the IPv4 address that is listed above that? In my case it would end up being ::10.0.0.86 Yes. In this specific context that's the notation being used. (Full IPv6 web server address, for reference then, would be: http://[0000:0000:0000:0000:0010:0000:0000:0086]) Nota bene: I use 0.0.0.0 which renders the DNSBL webserver useless and inaccessible, but otherwise returns 0.0.0.0 or ::/NOERROR answers to all blocked lookups.

    @jhg said in NUT fails to start after 2.7.2 -> 2.8.0 upgrade: Interesting. I would have thought the initial reboot, which occurred as part of the upgrade, would have done the trick, but it took a second reboot, just now, to get things working. Glad you have it sorted. There was no difference in the output of usbconfig show_ifdrv at any point -- before or after unplugging/replugging the USB cable, nor after rebooting. ... Question: What would tell me whether or not a driver was loaded? If there were an attached driver, it should have shown up with the show_ifdrv command. If you use the command and look at the other usb devices, I think they will show attached drivers. I don't expect to see a driver attached to the ups, because there is a quirk that tells the OS to ignore that device (and not attach a driver). Look for idVendor and idProduct in the above output. The Vendor ID for your device is 0764, which corresponds to Cyber Power Systems, and the Product ID for your device is 0601, which is registered as "PR1500LCDRT2U UPS" (don't sweat an exact match for the name). You can see the quirk with the following command: [25.07-RC][root@fw]/root: usbconfig dump_device_quirks | grep 0764 VID=0x0764 PID=0x0005 REVLO=0x0000 REVHI=0xffff QUIRK=UQ_HID_IGNORE VID=0x0764 PID=0x0501 REVLO=0x0000 REVHI=0xffff QUIRK=UQ_HID_IGNORE VID=0x0764 PID=0x0601 REVLO=0x0000 REVHI=0xffff QUIRK=UQ_HID_IGNORE [25.07-RC][root@fw]/root: Your device is third on the list. The HID_IGNORE quirk says to ignore the device and not attach a driver. @jhg said in NUT fails to start after 2.7.2 -> 2.8.0 upgrade: You might consider adding this resolution to the release notes for 2.8. LOL... sorry, I don't have input to the release notes (I don't work here). While I wrote and maintain various packages, including NUT, I'm still just a volunteer. Most packages are actually written by volunteers.

    @ermal thanks for committing the code Just viewed your changes, but with your code the widget will first display all alerts from IF 0 then IF 1 and so on, I think it is more desireable to display alerts sorted by date, not by interface. Thats why I added the sorting of timestamps.

    dan104, Remove your xml from previous post, It's not safe exposing your firewall config to the world  :( I've tried to access your ip on http and https without success. try these steps: Remove the nats for your internal web servers listen reverse squid on 80 apply a firewall rule on wan allowing access from any to interface_address port 80 and port 443 check on console/ssh if squid is running and listening on ports 80/443 using netstat -an | grep -i listen test using tcpdump(on console/ssh) if you get any http/https traffic to wan_address at port 80,443

    Might need the same fixes I had to do for mtr and/or nmap. I thought I checked in a fix for the pkg system in general but I could be misremembering it, as it's been a few weeks since I did all that work.

    Correct, the interface selection control on it is wrong, it needs to only allow one. There are a couple other threads about that.

    On possibility would be to setup the proxy server address on the clients browser - no matter if squid is running ins transparent mode or not. This worked for me in the paste when I tested this. The other option could be to set the squid interface IP address as gateway for the openVPN connection in firewall rules. But I am not sure if this will work.

    Sounds like maybe you removed squid before squidguard, which could break that process. Reinstall squid, then remove squidguard, then remove squid.

    Maybe on 2.1, but on 2.0 it breaks pfsense php. Another point is that postfix gui on pfsense acts just a forwarder, so no local mailboxes. att, Marcello Coutinho

    squid2 is working without problems on pfsense 2.0.1 in transparent mode. what version of pfsense are you using ? which squid are you using ? did you select you LAN interface on squid GUI and did you select "transparent" on squid ? did you enable the firewalol to allow traffic ?
