    @SteveITS I understand, but let's speak from the user/client point of view. Why a client must raise tickets in a bugtracker like Redmine or Jira or whatever? A client expectation is that, if a package is available, to be updated or maintained. If the package is not maintained it will become a security and performance issue with time. I mean I understand, maybe, Netgate doesn't have resources, but then, they can remove it, instead of waiting for something to happen... Just my 2 cents. @bmeeks Your suggestion is preferred, but from I understood from you, nobody is interested or have the knowledge. Again thank you, for updating this package over the years.

    @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.

    @provels said in mailreport - extra 'boot completed' time option?: I already get a "bootup complete" email notification. We all do. That is, if the notification system has at least one of the smtp/telegram/whatever already working. It's the last line of the all might /etc/rc.bootup that sends this notification message. It's this file that tells pfSense that it is pfSense and not some vanilla 'FreeBSD' device.

    This method is pretty bulletproof for me on x86, try it out: As per this page How To Install Speedtest-cli On a FreeBSD To Check Internet Speed, I simply ran these two commands in the GUI at Diagnostics / Command Prompt / Execute Shell Command: pkg search speedtest This returned the following: py38-speedtest-cli-2.1.3 Command line interface for testing internet bandwidth so I ran this command: pkg install -y py38-speedtest-cli-2.1.3 Then from there I simply run speedtest

    Generally speaking, the only way it might matter is if you checked "auto apply" in which case it's best to either remove it before upgrade or at least uncheck that box. Otherwise it doesn't matter if you delete it before or after. Where people get into trouble is when they (incorrectly) think they need to revert it before removing. That is unnecessary and actually can remove the good code and "unfix" something that wasn't broken on the new release.

    Moved this to packages since the questions you are asking are more relevant to the FreeRADIUS package support for Google Authenticator than OpenVPN. It can be used multiple times, it's no different than manually entering the OTP configuration in a similar tool such as Authy or Bitwarden manually, but more convenient. No time limit, it's just a QR code version of the user configuration data. No. Nothing in pfSense directly. Other RADIUS servers may have options for things like that. Check around for things like daloradius which may have plugins for what you want. You can then point the auth at that external RADIUS server and let it handle the user auth and OTP. Any time you rely on the user to "self-register" or similar terms for their own VPN setup, it's weakening security. Yes, managing users and VPN configurations is a chore, but anything that makes it substantially easier almost certainly makes it more open to attack or abuse.

    @bingo600 After some additional digging it seems it’s not related to Zabbix but rather unbound resolver in combination with pfblockerNG-devel 3.0.16 I’m investigating further for now, but stopping pfblockerNG (which stops and reconfigures unbound) releases the allocated diskspace which then returns to the 25% it should be. Maybe it’s something related to the new python integration i pfblockerNG and Unbound. The Issue must have arisen when I upgraded to 21.05 from 21.02 I’ll close this thread and create a new one under the pfBlockerNG forum.

    @paanvaannd said in Unable to modify (i.e., install, remove, or reinstall) packages via Web interface + Snort installed but not showing up in Web GUI: Thank you for taking the time to help and explain, @bmeeks! Per your and others' comments in that linked thread, I'm not hopeful that Snort/Suricata would have much hope of working on my SG-3100 even after 2.5.2 rolls around (I'd link directly to your comment but I can't figure out how to copy a permalink on this site...) so I may just upgrade to the SG-6100 since it's Intel-based. Yes, the SG-3100 is not the best choice right now for the IDS/IPS packages. It is due to the 32-bit ARM processor chip in that box. Because of the 32-bit ARM processor and the lack of Rust support for it, it is not possible to run any version of Suricata on that hardware newer than 4.x. That is two versions behind, and no longer supported by the Suricata team.

    I did everything the manual says. So I did add 127.0.0.1 as a NAS/client. And I did not add Class := "admins" as a reply-item. I tried now but it does not change the result. Still getting "Authentication error". And radsnitch produces the same (type of) output. But thank you for the suggestion.
