    @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.

    @Gertjan Thanks for your reply – that’s also my impression. The point is: I don’t really see any lists right now that are actually “maintained” in the sense of being actively cleaned up, checked for dead domains, categorized, etc. That’s why my main interest is more about the demand: Would curated lists really be a game changer for admins? Would they be more helpful than what’s available today, or are most people already using other alternatives? If so, which ones? And from your perspective, what would be your expectation towards “community lists”? (e.g. reliability, update frequency, categories, fewer false positives?)

    @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.

    Anyone else happen to notice that when configuring BFD, if you create a peer and select a profile - after save, re-edit the peer and the Profile is not represented. It appears as "None". You have to check the raw config to determine if the profile was actually assigned to the peer. This is on 2.8.1 (all packages up to date as of the date/time of this post). UPDATE: if re-edit and save (without re-configuring the profile none to what you want) - the save will strip the profile from the peer.

    Hi All, I use HAProxy to redirect to a range of https internal resources, this works really well at the moment through the WAN where I have source limits set up, and I can connect to the internal resources from limited external IP Addresses. Given I have tailscale I would like to basically be able to put custom dns entries in to point these hostnames to my pfsense tailscale IP4 address (100.89.148.118) but I am not having any luck getting this working. At the moment, I am just trying to connect to HAProxy using https://100.89.148.118 but it is getting blocked by the firewall. Sep 11 11:55:58 tailscale0 Default deny rule IPv4 (1000000103) 100.89.148.10:53148 100.89.148.118:443 TCP:S I have tried with and without NAT redirecting internally to 127.0.0.1, and I also have rules set up to allow any traffic to and from my tailnets (defined in an alias) but I still keep getting these connections from my other tailscale machines being blocked on the pfsense machine. Can someone give me some pointers on what I am missing because I can see the requests are coming through to the pfsense machine, and in theory the rules should allow it through but I cant see why they don't. I do have tailscale ACL in place, but clearly that is not an issue as the requests are making it through to the firewall. 0/0 B IPv4+6 TCP/UDP TailNets * TailNets * * none Allow across Tailnets 0/0 B IPv4+6 TCP/UDP * * * 443 (HTTPS) * none Allow Tailscale IP4 I also tried adding a EasyRule but because the tailscale0 interface doesn't exist in pfsense it throws an error and won't let me add that rule. Appreciate any help or tips, Cheers.

    @HFADmin If it is no Site2Site-VPN then you don't need any gateways in the first place... If that is true but you want to monitor the connection then you could create dummy-gateways just to ping the remote ip-addresses.

    I am seeing this with version 4.1.0_3 v2.3 on 2.0.1-RELEASE (amd64). Pentium G620 @ 2.60GHz 2 gig ram 4 gig SSD with 80% free System log entry: kernel: pid 57780 (ntop), uid 0: exited on signal 4 (core dumped) Specifically, this occurs when you try to view any of the ntop summary pages (ones listed in the menu "Summary" including the default main page that loads when you click on the ntop link in the pfsense menu). Visiting any non-summary page by directly entering the url is fine.

    I solved my second problem by enabling everything under "Snort: Interface: Preprocessors and Flow" even though I don't know if it's the right way. No error so far for the categories I have enabled. However, i was not able to find a solution about the enabled rules (signatures) on each category. I guess i have to live with that for now :/ But for sure there must be somewhere a description/documentation of each category, what kind of attacks is preventing but i could not find it so far..if someone has found something plz let me know

    @joebobfrank: (…) How about using Squid and Squidguard to log the URLs websites being accessed? Will this work? Do the logs get written to the CF card? For logging websites you should try sarg or lightsquid package.

    @rjcrowder: Squid3 does report proper status on the services screen. The status is showing up ok, the problem I see is when you try to start or restart the daemon. I'll take a look if I did some mistake on squid service info. EDIT: I found a way to fix it. The pfsense function that stops daemon is running on backgroud when it should wait process to killed before trying to start/restart. I did pull request to try to fix this. On my tests, it worked. att, Marcello Coutinho

    Dear all, Regarding to the 'wildcard' symbol, if I take a look at the config I already see that all URIs are automatically added a wildcard suffix by just entering the FQDN. So I suppose it is not needed at all. Isn't that strange? When I only want to host 'www.domain.com/test' it aint possible? Please help me out. I want to have my Exchange (and all features) working behind pfSense. Thanks, Canefield

    @dandantheflyingman: Yes i have seen a similar help topic. The problem was that both accf_http.ko and accf_data.ko were missing so even putting that line in the /boot/loader.conf was not helping. That is why i searched and found a copy of those *.ko files. What i dont know is whether they were suitable for my build? is there a better way? Could you post a link to the files? or upload them. Where did you save them once downloaded? I think I am having the same problem. Cheers.

    @redmon: and for monitoring and logging I need any kind of package? You can use lightsquid or sarg. Sarg has a realtime gui tab to see logs and reports that you can click to change sort order.

    We do not include a full set of compiler/make/libraries type tools on the firewall. It's a security risk, and it takes up a lot of space. Compile the module on a separate FreeBSD system and then move the module to the firewall.

    Still stuck… I issue 4+ consecutive HUPs in hope the data will rotate out but NO. I have tried a shell script: #! /bin/sh # for pid in $(pgrep bandwidthd); do kill -HUP $pid; done I have also tried: pgrep bandwidthd| xargs kill -HUP I have tested both by changing "-HUP" to "-9" and whamo all parent and children are killed. What am I doing wrong?
