    @johnpoz said in Please help to configure HAProxy to serve certifficate on internal LAN too: Yeah - what part do you not understand if you always resolve nextcloud.domain.tld so that it hits your haproxy on your pfsense wan IP are you not getting? You have 2 options - use a different domain internally and always go to nextcloud.publicdomain.tld, or use the same domain internally as external and run into the problem of what IP it resolves to.. Change your local domain to say home.arpa or .internal or atleast something different than the public domain your using to point to pfsense wan IP on the public internet. You are shooting yourself in the foot trying to use the same domain externally as internally. There are ways around it, but they complicate the setup. For example you might be able to use views in unbound as one way to work around the problem. You could use only host entries for all your resources. But then again you run into a problem of using the fqdn for this service, now always pointing to your wan IP.. And that is great when you want to access the service haproxy is doing - but if you want to access that resource on some other service that haproxy doesn't handle - like say simple file sharing.. You are going to have problems. Since you clearly do not understand how any of this works - the simple solution is change the local domain you are using so it is not the same as the public domain you want to use to get to your nextcloud. This tone is outrageous directed at somebody who acknowledged right off the rip that English is not their first language. How many languages do you speak, John? And safely assuming it's only one—English of course—take it from a fellow English native that you'd do well to say more with less words. You otherwise were directing OP in the right direction in my opinion.

    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.

    @netboy said in is something wrong with pfBlockerNG?: After my post, I "changed" DNSBL -> DNSBL mode from "unbound python mode" to "unbound mode" and so far i have no issues. Terrible idea. Moving backwards in development history there.

    @fjmp24 said in Notification: UPS ups battery is low: If I remove ignorelb directive, my UPS shuts down after 16 seconds This means your UPS is signaling a low battery. Either your battery is bad, or your UPS is bad. Most likely battery, but you never know. I suggest reaching out to Eaton support.

    I am using the DNS-Update method I have to use a DNS-Sleep of 5 minutes to let the letsencrypt txt dns record update propagate. During this 5 minutes the acme-webgui times out. when the acme-webgui times out the Action list is NOT executed. How can I solve this ? Would it maybe be an idea to let the acme.sh script execute the actions in the action list as a post-hook instead of the web-gui? Or maybe add an option to add post-hooks in the webUI ?

    @luckman212, Thanks for your suggestion. I will check what I have in /usr/local/pkg/tailscale/state, and also the RAM disk settings others have brought up. I could learn more about where Tailscale and pfSense store system files. If I find anything worth sharing, I will let you know.

    @LaUs3r Yeah, I added those IPs, but after restarting pfSense, the WireGuard status says “handshake failed.” Also, when I do nslookup us-bos.prod.surfshark.com, I get two different sets of IPs. For example: • The first time I get 43.225.189.108 and 43.225.189.118 • The next time I get 149.40.50.216 and 149.40.50.290 So I was wondering can I add both sets of IPs, and put a “0” at the end of each, and use /24 for both IPs? I reached out to Surfshark support, and they sent me their official pfSense WireGuard setup guide see the guide here in the guide they mention 10.14.0.2 for static routes

    @digitaljessica Try entering a space in the USB Type field. For some reason that passes input validation and allows you to save the config settings.

    @huseby_lucas I would expect it to be your "PC / Remote client" that is a 2.4.xx version. You could download an upgrade from OpenVPN.

    Ok - so that was an issue that it would auth, even without users in the freerad users.. And you fixed that. So now I just add them that match the CN on the certs.. Not a big deal.. Thanks!! All back to working for my 3 devices.. And it does make sense.. That users should also have to be listed in freerad to match the CN on the cert. And - makes it easy to just delete a user vs worried about revoking a cert, etc. etc.. Thanks again for looking into this so quickly and link to the other bug that was fixed.. That was causing my problem. edit: Project for this weekend maybe is moving to eap-tls via wpa3-enterprise.. I got wpa3 working on my psk ssids.. But have to do some reading - Not sure wpa3-enterprise really gets me all that much over wpa2-enterprise.. Can use a higher level encryption sure.. But not sure if makes any sense when using eap-tls.. Some reading to do.. But wpa3-psk is working nice.. Sad part is - with all these shitty iot devices, that don't support wpa3, you have to still run in wpa2/wpa3 mode..

    @viktor_g I had that. I left out one key bit of information which I was unaware was relevant at the time: That is, my SG-3100 was running multiWAN and my Tomato router was behind it. I had issues with NAT reflection requirements that I did not sort out completely before giving up on that configuration. I moved the Tomato router from behind the SG-3100 and put it directly on it's own WAN connection and then the Tinc UDP flowed fine in both directions. How was the bandwidth using iperf3? Not great. At 15mbps the single core of the Tomato router (an Asus RT-AC66U) was maxed out while one of the cores of the SG-3100 never exceeded 16% running tincd.

    @nick-loenders If you do not have servers, is it safe to assume there are minimal amount of clients? You can create the CA on the pfsense firewall and then export that certificate and install it in the root store of the devices in order to use SquidGuard with HTTPS/MITM functionality. Otherwise SquidGuard has to be configured as a proxy to use HTTPS filtering. The HTTP filtering alone doesn't require further client configurations but most connections these days are through SSL. Otherwise, you can configure the pfsense as DNS unbound resolver and utilize pfBlockerNG which can block TLD's, and connections based on source country/region (DNSBL). pfBlocker will also let you utilize lists such as Dshield and Spamhaus to filter out bad sites and domains by IP address. Short of all that 'hassle', you might be more interested in a next-gen layer 7 firewall from a different vendor, but they are considerably more expensive and require maintenance contracts to continue functioning properly.
