    Can I use pgblockerng aliases in Haproxy?

    80758505-9bad-4dad-a80b-c159be1045a2-image.png

    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.

  • Discussions about the Tailscale package

    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?

    @patient0 Thanks for further suggestions. The tunnel is definitely up and so I don't think this is a CGNAT issue after all. WAN firewall rule is in place for UDP on port 51823 (otherwise the tunnel wouldn't work, right?). I can ping from client 1 -> client 2 and visa versa and also ping all points in between like you suggest. I just can't open an HTTPS connection from pfSenseB from Client 1 using a browser. But I can do this the other way round i.e. from Client 2 to pfSenseA

    I will try and do some packet capture to see if that reveals anything.

    @Gloom:

    Silly question but you are "attacking" your host via the interface that has snort enabled on it. If you have snort enabled on the WAN but are testing from an internal host then you will get no alerting or blocking.

    it is not silly question. Snort enabled on the WAN ethernet but it is not give any alertin or blocking messages.

    Thanks for your suggestion.  I applied a suppression.

    Can I add comments into my suppression list by adding a '#' in front of my text I want to add a note to?

    For example, can I do this in my suppression list:

    suppress gen_id 1, sig_id 17750 # disable DOS Microsoft IIS 7.5 client verify null pointer attempt (Android/Exchange)

    so I can tell why I added that suppression?  The character may not be a # but anything… ?

    Rather than spending your time on trying to find the cause. You're better off building a dedicated standalone squid box with Dansguardian.

    I stay away from all in one solution.

    That one is described as: "This signature detects a PHP script as content to an HTTP response"

    Yes, it is, there is no other possible way to download and install the package data. Nothing we can do to fix your broken signatures.

    ok. snort is free and open source but rules free only for 30 days.

    You can use free rules, It's just not updated as fast as paid subscription.

    Thanks jimp for providing the answer.

    Here is how I installed python under NanoBSD:

    /etc/rc.conf_mount_rw setenv PKG_TMPDIR /root/ pkg_add -r http://files.pfsense.org/packages/8/All/python26-2.6.6.tbz /etc/rc.conf_mount_ro

    Cool… Since Python is running on NanoBSD, I now have my sshuttle tool running on my remote laptop and creating a transparent TCP tunnel over SSH including DNS requests.

    Good luck finding anything related to SBCs. OpenSBC is dead, freeswitch/kayroo is cryptic. kayroo is limited to 20 channels and no documentation. Looks like for an integrated solution, we'll get what we pay for.

    Take a look on tftp docs. If you have package/binaries installed, I maybe just a config fix.

    I'm very familiar with vi, so I thought that was even a safer way to go.....
    I deleted the lines and then installed the package, just fine...

    one is dec_keyid and the other is enc_keyid. If you click on the edit button you will see the actual rule text and you will likely find it matches on different things.
