    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.

    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

    @judex: It is not fixed for my 2.0.1 system. I deleted the package an every file with snort in its name before reinstallation. Still the same warning in 2.5.0 did you reinstall?

    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 ?

    @ermal: Please reinstall again! You need a new snort binary for the alerts to be displayed correctly. OK - since removing and reinstalling the latest snort package, the alert descriptions have returned to being N/A.  Doesn't appear 10101000's patch has been included within the latest binary unfortunately.  I suppose I can try to reapply his patch once more.  Could you please correct this blank/NA alert description functionality for Blocked IPs in the next build?  Thanks. EDIT: I attempted to apply his latest system patch and it doesn't qualify to be applied.
