uTorrent will get out on a single open port including DNS. I have been unsuccessful in being able to completely block p2p. More and more p2p torrent applications will tunnel their way through anything.
Even if you block every single tracker out there DHT will still work.

If this is for a work environment or a place where there are professional consequences then the only way to handle p2p traffic completely is to have your users sign an agreement and hold them accountable when that agreement is broken.

seems I am talking to myself here.. :(

I parsed the access.log file and the dates are missing there also.. so either the user switched off the pfsense box or squid just stopped working….
No rotation was on, so perhaps the log files just got too big?
Can someone tell me the relation of the Squid rotate log scheduler (for Squid light) and the Log rotate setting in my proxy server? Currently the latter is 30, if I make the Squid light setting "weekly at Saturday" surely I must change the squid setting to 7 then?

thx.

I downloaded the latest rules, enabled some of them and also enabled preprocessors. The directory snort is looking for does not exist, do you think it could be missing from the latest snort package? I didn't have this problem with the previous version.

I'll add it, but a warning, if your pc that connects to Pfsense gets blocked reboots will not save your skin.

Welcome to Installation

With this option, it is possible to install phpBB3 onto your server.

In order to proceed, you will need your database settings. If you do not know your database settings, please contact your host and ask for them. You will not be able to continue without them. You need:
The Database Type - the database you will be using.
The Database server hostname or DSN - the address of the database server.
The Database server port - the port of the database server (most of the time this is not needed).
The Database name - the name of the database on the server.
The Database username and Database password - the login data to access the database.

Note: if you are installing using SQLite, you should enter the full path to your database file in the DSN field and leave the username and password fields blank. For security reasons, you should make sure that the database file is not stored in a location accessible from the web.

phpBB3 supports the following databases:
MySQL 3.23 or above (MySQLi supported)
PostgreSQL 7.3+
SQLite 2.8.2+
Firebird 2.1+
MS SQL Server 2000 or above (directly or via ODBC)
Oracle

Only those databases supported on your server will be displayed.

How to complete them?

This has been fixed for both packages. Thank you for pointing this out.

I had similar problem with some sites (sorceforge.net was one of them) with the same error.

The problem was snort and an ET rule.

Find the IP of that site and search in the blocked (snort) IPs and search for an Alert with the IP in /var/log/snort/alert file.

I have been running into problems when it comes to updating squid. I just install squid3, uninstall squid, uninstall squid3 install squid. Could be I just need to redo the FWs but it works for now, at least for me its not that big a deal.

I have decided to install that on a different machine since it will be for internal use only.

OK. I setup a second instance in logging-only mode with just the rules that would be relevant to the workstations I'm concerned with (virus, malware, phishing, etc). After I get a better idea of what rules are relevant to the LAN, and which are relevant to the WAN, I'll divide the rulesets between the two sensors and have both operate in blocking mode. I think this would be the most efficient use of resources.

I rolled the 1.2.3 package down to the previous version again.

I had feedback from someone on the forum who said it worked after the change was made, but it seems to cause problems for others.

After about 5 minutes it should show up on the package server.

james, sorry, but i have problem with snort on pf 2, all images was broken, not only snort,.. now it is ok :)

you can imagine how piss i was  ;)

well i am sorry to bother you. i guess my mistake though. I even tried to install 1.2.3 which at first run on the default config ACL of squidguard. and then when i try to create some custom ACLs and Destinations then that trigger the problem for squidguard not to filter anything at all. I should be very carefull on that.
I return back my hard drive with 2.0 beta4 installation and reconfigure the ALCs and Destinations and it's working fine again.

thank you very much. cheers! :)

Im going to assume just packages on PF as thats all you listed

Snort- no blocking as on one system it likes to block itself, just lets me know about the malicious traffic
Squid- speed up Internet, also can prove who did what if accused of something because of the http logs
Country Block-I block country's I dont like in and out
Cron- i run clamav, other stuff listed there is standard or required by a package
dashboard-see everything at a glance
phpSysInfo- see how components are doing
nut-so it turns off gracefully
ntop/darkstat-mostly for statistics and future planning
nmap-basic scanning from fw, for more basic i use a diff system

https does not work with transparent mode. It can't, due to the way SSL security works.

As for configuring the proxy settings, have a look here:
http://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/WPAD_Autoconfigure_for_Squid

Try the squidguard Default and ACL or squid proxy server settings. No need to setup each browser for a proxy. I tested it on my network.

Building this file tonight or in the morning.

Night.
