    Retested on 24.11-RELEASE (amd64) all seems to work. So it seems right to file a bug for this issue.

    @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.

    @EChondo What's your pfSense version ? The instructions are shown here : [image: 1753262126227-1acdc586-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.

    This is still an issue as of 2.8.0 / 25.07, and it drives me crazy. Gateway failure works as expected, the wireguard tunnels will fail over to the backup gateway and continue on as normal, but will never recover once the failed gateway comes back online. While a reboot will (usually) fix it, I usually just go into my routing settings and mark the secondary gateway as down, forcing it to revert back to the primary... the users tend to dislike it when I reboot the firewall in the middle of the day

    I changed the squid package last night and shortened all of the tab names so they should fit back into tabs now, and won't trigger the drop-down navigation. If you reinstall the package it should pick up the change.

    You can easily do this without Squid: if Bob has a static IP, you can put him in the "penalty queue" of the traffic shaper.

    @scottnguyen: Now that 1.2.3 is out, I was beginning to try out the FS package.  I saw here that a comment to try it internally it was said "To make this work locally only, bind ext/int/lan to the LAN IP" and Make sure turn off/configure your local machine's firewall too. Q 1.  Exactly how do BIND the EXTernal / INTerfaces interfaces? If you want both internal and external profiles to bind to a particular ip address. Then there is a variable local_ip_v4 that is usually determined automatically however you can override the value by setting it at the top of the variables page. <x-pre-process cmd="set" data="local_ip_v4=192.168.0.1">If you want to adjust only a single sip profile you edit it and remove the ${local_ip_v4} and replace it with IP you want FreeSWITCH to bind to. <param name="rtp-ip" value="${local_ip_v4}"> <param name="sip-ip" value="${local_ip_v4}"> By default local_ip_v4 detect the WAN IP and therefore binds the internal and external profile to the WAN IP. But it is still protected by the firewall. So by default only people on the LAN can access it. @scottnguyen: Q 2.  If I turn off the firewall, then obviously that feature is off, what is the better way to test this only INTERNALLY?  I wish to test the features with no public DNS or IP Address yet. Set it up in the LAN or wherever you want and get a phone or soft phone and register to it. P.S The project has finally gotten a name. Its called fusionpbx and it is now multi-platform and the website is http://www.fusionpbx.com. pfSense package for the latest version is in the development.</x-pre-process>

    I haven't used mod_syslog yet but I know there is xml config file for it. /usr/local/freeswitch/autoload_configs/syslog.conf.xml Looked at the file and didn't see any settings to push to a remote syslog server so I imagine it talks to the local syslog server. Mark J Crane

    @sourcenaut: Do I need to set any outgoing pass rules for wan? No, traffic can leave from the pfSense box itself by default (and can't be blocked, actually) If you want to prevent someone from getting out of the WAN, you need to block them coming into the (LAN, LAN2, LAN3, etc).

    @GruensFroeschli: You could install the developers version which has most of the tools a stock FreeBSD has. Basically: everything strapped away in the pfSense version is still there in the developers version. Thanks for the info - wasn't aware of that.  Definitely a lot easier than trying to cobble together a working OS from a full disk install to the pared down firewall edition.

    @biatche: I plan to have a pfsense rig with 2 hard disks, 1 for pfsense, another for squid cache (raptor) first of all, does anybody find this necessary? or should I put pfsense on the raptor and cache along with it. is it at all possible (guidance if possible) to setup pfsense in this manner? Its supposed to increase speeds a good bit… especially if you have a really big and really fast newer hard drive. They say that having squid on the same Hard Drive that the OS is on makes it slower. Although, this also depends on how many users you will have on your system. If you have 100, then by all means get two 500GB Hard drives. If you only have 5 (like us), I think a faster sata hard drive would work, just you would not need a ton of space. I've got a 160GB Hard drive I want to use, but I've not been able to get the bios to detect it, or pfsense to mount it, so I don't know if it will work.
