    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.

    @agitelzon I have no issue connecting to LE servers from pf shell. The issue is cloudflare security setting is configured as a whitelist for api zone record changes. The whitelist includes my ipv4 address only, as a /32. As I mentioned, I could add the ipv6 prefix as a /64. Given that pf is configured to prefer ipv4, I thought that would carry over to acme as well.

    @lbm_ I have the same problem: pfSense v25.07.1 on FreeBSD 15-Current, Netgate 6100. Could you let me know if you found a solution? I haven't. I have been updating Tailscales from Freshports while keeping the Tailscale Package installed. I have recently read that this can cause problems with routes, interfaces, firewall rules, and others. I am leaning towards deleting the Tailscale package.

    @tinfoilmatt Thanks! I have done that and it worked when forcing just her TV out the Centurylink.. My problem is my local box here. Im missing something because I can not get it to pass traffic from the WAN to the Wireguard tunnel. Ive got some time today so will chip away on my lab setup to see if I can finally accomplish it here first.

    darkstat runs on port 666.  I haven't changed anything on my desktop, so I'm not sure why that port would be blocked when it wasn't before.  I'll look, though.

    Looks like this device ships with a CF instead of HD?  If that is the case, you'll want to either disable disk caching in Squid (choose null from the GUI) or install something that won't 'burn out' like CF with the constant read/writes from Squid.

    No one can confirm or explain way TFTP download didn't work for my configuration (pfsense 2.0 built on Mon Sep 6, Mac OS X 10.6.4, Safari 5.0.1 or Firefox 3.6.8 )? Upload and removing files works fine…

    I know how to compile this on a linux box, but being that pfsense i guess it doesn't include the options to make and configure, how do I go about compiling this and then replacing my current "package" version installed on my firewall? Thanks! -Chris

    It should only take a few seconds for most packages to uninstall. I installed and then immediately uninstalled the openvpn client export package and it did both for me without error. Not sure what could have gone wrong in your case.
