    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.

    @vicking said in No blocks on IP: Is it a bad idea to have the action set to deny both instead of inbound only? Question is squarely for admin. Per the infoblock which explains, in part, the "Deny Inbound", "Deny Outbound", and "Deny Both" actions: 'Deny' Rules: 'Deny' rules create high priority 'block' or 'reject' rules on the stated interfaces. They don't change the 'pass' rules on other interfaces. Typical uses of 'Deny' rules are: Deny Both - blocks all traffic in both directions, if the source or destination IP is in the block list Deny Inbound/Deny Outbound - blocks all traffic in one direction unless it is part of a session started by traffic sent in the other direction. Does not affect traffic in the other direction. One way 'Deny' rules can be used to selectively block unsolicited incoming (new session) packets in one direction, while still allowing deliberate outgoing sessions to be created in the other direction. In other words: When set to "Deny Inbound", incoming connection requests from WAN hosts are blocked and therefore no state will be created. However a LAN host can still establish state to an otherwise listed IP. If set to "Deny Outbound", outgoing connection requests from LAN hosts are blocked and therefore no state will be created. However an incoming connection request from an otherwise listed IP to an 'open' WAN port can still establish state. If set to "Deny Both", both incoming connection requests and outbound connections requests are blocked and therefore no state will be created regardless of connection direction.

    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.

    @RNM-0 Thanks for your comment and sharing your fix. Unfortunately I don't want to take down pfsense and downgrade versions. I'm currently fine at the moment since I'm using Tailscale and that works. I also fixed the other crash I was having with pfblocker by changing a line code that wasn't pushed out under this version. Hopefully the stable release won't take too long to release but it appears there's still some open bugs that need to be fixed before that happens, and ironically, both the pfblocker and wireguard issues aren't on that list of bug fixes.

    @stman: Are you also running snort on that box? To me it seems squid and snort don't play nice together No I'm not. I did however at one time install snort and then uninstalled it. I've seen "snort" mentioned somewhere in XML or something. So I'm not using snort nor having it installed right now. Cheers,

    By hand ;) There are no packages for Snort 3.0, since it's a beta release.  You'll have to compile it yourself, build a package (see this thread for an example) and then install that package.  Do read the information about using multiple processors or cores and Snort, it's not necessarily an advantage.

    I'm bumping this and going to narrow it down to snort. I'm not able to get snort to block offending hosts. Snort is running, and under the alerts tab, I see alerts. I've used grc.com and www.testmyids.com. Both sites generate a snort alert. On the settings page, I have the Block Offenders options checked. This options is described as "Checking this option will automatically block hosts that generate a snort alert." I have an Oinkmaster code entered. I have all categories selected. Rules update successfully. But, under the blocked tab, there are never any hosts listed. And I can continue to access sites that (as I understand) should be blocked. Suggestions?  Am I not understanding something?  Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    @dvserg: Why enabled squid upstream proxy? Squid has parent proxy server ? And you browser must be set to squid IP/Port, but not to upstream proxy setting. thx.. it's worked.. it's blocked everything.. even i tried to change the default rules to allow all traffic..  ??? but how to enable the transparent proxy server.. so if client want to access website with port 80 they go to proxy server.. cmiiw if i'm using transparent proxy it means i don't need to setup the browser proxy right? i already setup the like this but it's blocked all traffic.. thx dvserg [image: gbr2.JPG] [image: gbr2.JPG_thumb] [image: gbr3.JPG] [image: gbr3.JPG_thumb] [image: gbr1.JPG] [image: gbr1.JPG_thumb]

    Thanks.  It turned out that I had tried installing pfJailctl on pfSense 1.2.2.  Apparently, it seems that it requires 1.2.3 for the configuration options to show up under the Services tab.  I upgraded to 1.2.3-RC1, uninstalled pfJailctl, reinstalled it and now it shows up there. I have also installed jail_template, rebooted and yet it doesn't show up in the dropdown list when I try to create a new jail.  Am not sure why.  I know I am getting Javascript errors on the Jail:Edit page, but I don't know if that is related to it or not.  Actually, I just tried in FF3, and it shows up fine there without any JS errors.  The JS errors occur in ie7. Thanks, Eric

    Is there any progress on this? SANS recommends http://isc.sans.org/diary.html?storyid=6151&rss that all users upgrade to 2.8.4, as changes to the netbios rule format mean that all versions < 2.8.4 do not receive updates to netbios rules after 2009-04-08 (+ 30 days if you are a freeloader) :-[ edit:typo

    I think the FreeBSD port would need to be updated first. It's only at 2.8.2.2. That may not be too difficult to pull off, but may take some time/testing.

    great info there! i didnt even think about switching the port to something other then port 80. i had set squid to listen on port 80 as i figured it was required for the traffic going through it, figured it was something i did wrong. i just reset to factory and restored the backup i did just before i installed squid :) things are running smooth again, and will try to play with squid again today if i have some time.
