    Can I use pgblockerng aliases in Haproxy?

    If it was a firewall rule, typing pfb would produce a dropdown to select.

    Here it has to be written, but will it work? Is it supported?

    @bmeeks So after upgrading to the newest PfSense 2.8.0 everything is now working like a charm!

    Suricata no longer seems to strip off tags like it did before! Which means I can now use my network segmented by VLANs and still use the benefits of Suricata Inline IPS! Very niiize!

    I checked in the Alerts section and it is indeed generating the correct alerts from the different VLAN sections, I put Inline IPS on the parent interface of all the VLANs.

    I assume this is because the FreeBSD version is also updated with the new PfSense 2.8.0 version?

    Because before, as soon as I selected Inline IPS mode, my entire VLAN tagging would break and nothing was reachable until I switched back to Legacy mode.

    The database name is vnstat.db and its location is under /var/db/vnstat.
    With "Backup Files/Dir" we are able to do backup or also with a cron.

    @EChondo

    What's your pfSense version ?
    The instructions are shown here :

    1acdc586-cb29-4148-9e36-81ade4e5e60c-image.png

    A restart of a service will start by re creating their config files. If a certificate changed, it will get included. When the process starts, it will use the new certificate.

    @EChondo said in Issue with ACME Certificates Refresh & Restarting HAProxy:

    I haven't been able to confirm if the above works(mine just renewed, don't feel like doing it again just to test), so we'll see in 60 days I guess.

    No need to wait x days.
    You can re test / renew right away, as you are 'allowed' to renew a couple (5 max ?) of times per week.

    I had a similar issue with Routed VTI over IPsec recently. FRR lost its neighbors after rebooting or when a tunnel went down. It never re-discovered it automatically. Only restarting FRR (either in GUI or via CLI) brought the neighbors back.

    When I manually added those under the OSPF neighbors tab in the GUI it seems to solve the problem as well.

    Hello,
    I am unable to get the Tailscale package to work. The page at VPN > Tailscale > Authentication is stuck. It displays the error "Tailscale is not online," but also shows a "Logout and Clean" button, with no option to log in.
    link text

    This state persists even after performing the following troubleshooting steps:

    Rebooting the pfSense router.

    Completely uninstalling and reinstalling the Tailscale package multiple times.

    Clearing browser cache and using a private browser window.

    Toggling the main "Enable Tailscale" checkbox in the settings.

    Checking the logs, which show the service gets a "terminate" signal and shuts down cleanly; it does not crash.

    Manually trying to delete the state file with rm /var/db/tailscale/tailscaled.state, which failed because the file does not exist.

    It appears that the package's configuration is corrupted in a way that persists even after reinstallation. Can anyone advise on how to perform a complete manual cleanup of all Tailscale files and settings?

    I've read through some other posts about this, but they either didn't say whether the proposed solution worked or they were very convoluted and difficult to understand. Here is our scenario: We have 6 locations--Las Cruces (LC), Sunland Park (SP), El Paso (EP), Abilene (ABI), Fort Worth (FW), and Plano (PL). LC and ABI have software that is accessed by the other 4 locations via VPN. There are WireGuard VPNs set up between LC and those 4 locations (SP, EP, FW, PL), and ABI and those 4 locations (SP, EP, FW, PL). There is also a WireGuard VPN connection between LC and ABI. LC and ABI have 2 internet connections. SP, EP, FW, and PL each have one internet connection.

    If the primary internet connection goes down at either LC or ABI and failover occurs to the secondary internet connection, is there a way to set up the WireGuard VPN connections so that they also failover without purchasing some 3rd party application?

    Thanks.

    Thank you for the hint but there are no stupid questions as I have learned  ;)

    The new release of PFSense will come in 2 weeks with new hardware.

    Well I have read your post but I do not understand why these firewall rules
    should help.
    The rest is configured according to the manuals or posts in here but I
    do not understand why it stopped working

    @arushi:

    It works, but this users that i block on "Banned host addresses" can open the web pages with https (port 443)
    How can i close this port for this clients??
    ;)

    Transparent proxy does not filter port 443. Create a firewall -> rule to block it.

    Oh I see.. Thanks!  :D

    I've been doing a bit of digging around in the pfSense source code and I think locking the account using

    exec("/usr/sbin/pw lock {$user_name} -q");

    And setting the user's shell to "/sbin/nologin" should be sufficient.

    Does anyone know of an existing function / better way to do this? (guessing not as I stole my code from https://github.com/bsdperimeter/pfsense/blob/master/etc/inc/auth.inc#L457)

    I've started using the Snort package a couple of days ago and this bug is really annoying… But I think I might found a semi-working solution for it. In /usr/local/etc/snort/rules are the categories such as snort_* and emerging-*. When I disable/enable specific rules in these files they will at least stay permanent for interface restart and updates when no new rules files are downloaded. But I guess these changes will be overwritten when new rules are actually downloaded (not just checked and no new files where found). But yeah... Not perfect, but at least the rules won't reset every 12 hour anymore.
    For some reason I don't seem to have a oinkmaster.conf file on my system at all? 2.0.1-RELEASE (amd64) with Snort 2.9.1 pkg v. 2.1.1.
    What's the current status of this bug btw?

    i solve it but i need now to flush cache content and removw all cache and i want to know if cach is working and chaching or not
    cause i have another prob.
    i remove pfsense and reinstalled it many times and install squid and light squid and in every time i found that lightsquid report is reporting that i use cache and specify the content that cached before the removing pfsense
    how does this work despite i was erase all hard disk content and reinstall pfsense from zero

    it doesn't happen with many packages anymore as we take some precautions to prevent it as much as possible, but it does happen on some, have to be careful when messing with packages. 2.1 uses PBI packages to eliminate such dependency hell.

    Uninstalled and reinstalled the Snort package, and now it works.  I can check under "Services" menu.  Service is running.

    Hi CMB and thanks for the reply.
    I mean, both Squid and Dolphin are creatures from the sea, so they should get well along…. ;D
    Why this doesn't happen with PHPBB3 which is running from exactly the same address (192.168.5.8  ), the parent folder is the same, they are in 2 different subfolder which i did even try to swap but the result was the same...the Squid is discriminating

    Snort on pfsense is currently 2.9.0.5 which is now end of life. You will still get emergingthreats rules but until someone updates the snort package to ideally 2.9.2.2 you won't receive any new VRT rules I am afraid.

    You can use the supress tab to filter the alerts and I would disable the ET-DROP, ET-TOR rules etc. You could use pfblocker and lists like emerging-blocklist and compromised etc .txt files in emergingthreats (firewall and block rules). You could set these to block outbound, inbound or both. Install pfblocker and enable these in the lists as .txt:

    @marcelloc:

    leave lightsquid/sarg on the second pfsense

    firewall with squid in transparent mode on lan + upstream configuration

    second pfsense with squid and report package

    Thanks. I'll have to look into this. I have never used or heard of sarg.

    As my pfSense main firewall is a VM, if i put the cache off onto anothe rbox like this, how much HDD space does pfSense actually need to work efficiently?

    of course you need to make a cronjob with "/usr/local/sbin/squid -k reconfigure", got an pm to this, so, well you always need the full path in a cron job

    You might have set 'block offenders'.
    This option currently seems to break snort, at least for me.
    Try to disable the option to automatically block offenders and see if snort starts normally.

    Hi,

    I'm also interested in being able to send email messages from my pfsense.

    Since the pfsense webconfigurator already has configured a MTA with servername, addresses and authentication etc, I thought that everything needed were there and it was only a matter of knowing the commands and parameters to be able to send messages?

    I don't mind using any command interpreter if I only know the syntax to use.  (Message subject, Message body and Send it…)

    regards Tor
