    @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

    @kbohlken If you install new packages on a production firewall it should not cause downtime. However, if you are updating packages on a production firewall, those services related to the packages will be unavailable for a short period. If you have SquidGuard working for example, and decide to update the package, the squid service will be restarted and squid will stop blocking pages for a short period, usually less than a few minutes. I always have 2 firewalls in HA Sync, and when I do updates I will swap production firewalls and only work on the standby firewall. I also make it a habit to reboot the firewall after installing or updating a package as I've had issues updating squid/squidguard in the past.

    @gertjan Hello I build my infrastructure It is not large in hardware perspective, but I've started to to integration of many apps that will have to have to be on a separate domains. Until now the internal resolver did the job, but now ... I need actual dns server. This is strange everywhere I open a discussion about BIND and DNS all I am getting is go somewhere else!!!!!! Never had a straight answer like this functions is for that that function is for that or if you want to do this just do this and this !!!! Never mind. Typically, you should isolate such a program, set up a test bed network and 'play' with. That's what I am doing right now I have a downstream network behind an other pfSense Firewall and that's where I am testing it. I also have a Ubuntu server behind this firewall with Virtualmin and BIND9 package installed with few test websites, but what I am trying to understand is some terminology and functions of BIND. So... I set in the Settings to listen on: all vlans, but there is an option on the bottom "Forwarder Configuration" should I set this "Forwarder IPs" to my upstream resolver or, if this option is not enabled it will simply look what DNS Servers set on System/General Settings ???? and.... In "Views" I have created and called "localview" where Recursion - Yes match-clients - Any but... allow-recursion - currently set to ANY, but this will be used for local zones isn't more secure to be set to "localnets" then "any" no matter if that is my downstream or upstream pfsense Thank you

    You're right, I delete certbot and install a selfsignated certificate. That works correctly. The problem come from LE. As the server is empty, I will reinstall it. Thank you for your help Benoit

    @karls0 Just to remember it: After reloading filters, I get following in Status | System logs | General: Unable to read included directory: /opt/etc/xinetd.d [file=/var/etc/xinetd.conf] [line=1] When I tried "less" and typed in the whole path (without the Tab-key) I got the message "/opt/etc/xinetd.d/check_mk: No such file or directory" So there must be an invisible character in the path. Therefore I deleted the directory /opt/etc/xinetd.d and created it new. I copied the file "check_mk" back into it and now xinetd runs :-)) Sorry, I cannot mark my post as resolved - if anyone can, please do it.

    No answer, quite disappointed. I had time to lean on it lately and managed to do what I wanted. Here's some catch if it helps anyone. Create your certificate (I use the OVH API but it works with the other method): [image: 1610639766221-createcertificate.png] You can create as many certificates as necessary (Pay attention to the limit imposed by the ACME packge, see link below) Rate Limits [image: 1610639971033-createcertificate2.png] In Haproxy, go to the frontend which manages the domain name linked to the certificates created previously (the one ending with "site" for me, it depends on your configuration). [image: 1610640212863-frontend.png] In the "certificate" section, choose one of the certificates to create (any you need). Check the 2 boxes "Add ACL for certificate ...." [image: 1610640406182-frontend1.png] In the "additional certificates" section, add all the certificates you need. [image: 1610640536408-frontend2.png] Check the 2 ACL boxes again [image: 1610640576109-frontend3.png] Save and apply the configuration. Domains are now in HTTPS.

    @gertjan I did the settings... All is fine. pfsense still running. Concerning BandwithD, it works also fine on my APU... pfsense usage is for personal use, with less than 20 devices on my Network. As you can see, CPU usage is low... (9%..30% depending on what I do). Only temp. is a little bit elevated due to the fact there is no cooling system. I also implemented zfs for better performances and reliability.

    I have solved my problem, for reference and for anyone who runs into the same problem: On the pfSense gateway 172.xx.xx.1 (the one in front of the InfluxDB server, which was working), add the following to the Telegraf configuration: [[inputs.influxdb_listener]] service_address = ":8086" This can be done at the bottom of the Telegraf configuration page. This activates Telegraf as a forwarder. On each other pfSense machine, I find the VTI interface IP, ie 10.88.88.xx and set the influxDB server as http://10.88.88.xx:8086. Now, the data is sent via Telegraf to the InfluxDB server, and arrives as it should. There would probably be other solutions with proxies, but this seems simplest.
