    @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 ?

    @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

    I was having some squidguard problems too and tracked down a different issue than what I've seen in this thread. I am attempting to run the shallalist rules and after a lot of troubleshooting I finally noticed in the squidguard log that it couldn't find blk_BL_politics I noticed that there's a blk_BL_politcs (notice no i) but not one with the proper spelling.  So I just symlinked the proper spelling to the improper spelling and after that it seems to work fine. Thanks to the package maintainer for providing this software.

    Snort has some kind of problem that it uninstalls itself at reboot, I'm not sure if it's a problem with the package system or the snort package itself, one or the other has some sort of bug. It will retain the configuration.

    Sure, I doubt anyone here is going to turn away someone willing to contribute.  I suspect you'd get a lot of interest if you make a plug-in for Thunderbird as well.

    @submicron: Please read the rest of the thread before complaining about things not working.  The button issue has been addressed in this thread, it does work, just not the way that you are expecting. The blacklist/whitelist count is currently broken and this has been reported to the developer as well. Finally, please do some reading to understand what spamd is and isn't.  It doesn't feature a way to blacklist or whitelist by domain.  That's not its intent.  Blacklists and whitelists are IP addresses only.  It also isn't meant to be the end-all, be-all of spam filtering.  It's meant to help stem the tide of spam and cut down the most obvious stuff.  It should be used in conjunction with a virus scanner on your mail server (at the very least). I did read and understand the entire thread, but since threads were aging and revision numbers weren't listed I was just making sure it hadn't been fixed and I was doing something wrong.  The whitelist button does /not/ work on my install, i understand that the page doesn't reload after the buttons are clicked- it's stated several times throughout the entire thread. I also understand how and what spamd does i was simply asking for an interface to the spamd.alloweddomains file, but since i'm not part of the bounty and this isn't the thread for that, forget about it.  The last question was about other peoples setups, i was simply curious if most were now running 3 boxes (PFsense  |  Clam/Razor | Mailserver). I thought I saw someone ask for configurations to be posted to help others out, and I figured that fell within the realm.  Here are my configs: [image: 6.jpg]

    pfSense isn't gentoo.  Ricing it up isn't necessary or even a particularly good idea.

    Thanks submicron! Yes, I plan on testing the SpamD package. (we might have a site to try soon) We like the feature set and configuration options of ASSP. (Email/Domain/Ip white list, Active Directory email validation of real email users. Not to mention the building/feeding, and whit listing of spam/not spam by users. But it also lacks some features) This is why I wanted to find out more of the history and where the old files could be. Wanted to try and see what i could do. It is a shame that it was not maintained…IMO...it is a good product. Maybe spamD has theses features and I just do not have my facts straight….will look more. (I do see IP white/black list) Thanks again

    You're correct, the zabbix agent package doesn't start.  I modified it for my own purposes and got it working, but zabbix is a piece of crap and I scrapped it shortly thereafter.  Zabbix doesn't monitor FreeBSD properly so the Zabbix client, even if you get it working, will suck with a whole mouthful of teeth.

    @submicron: Then follow the instructions that hoba provided. I had another issue that a fan was broken and the device wouldn't restart because of this failing fan after placing the changed XML back, I directly moved my other backup FW into the vlan and had everything working in seconds… the same day I fixed it as I did before by removing the part from the XML as mentioned :) Thanks !

    @jan: Hi Guys, I've installed Squid and LightSquid respectively, I've also tried installing squidguard but don't have to luck to make it work, just used OpenDNS instead ;D  anyways back to the real issue, LightSquid seems to be acting quite odd. Although there are reports on the LightSquid Report page but when I looked at it the results are quite odd, e.g., for this day the total bytes is only 4MB. I have more than two hundred users and I can't believe they will only consume that much. Another thing is when I looked at the individual ip's report and compared them, all of them browsed the same three sites which is not true. I think Squid stopped for some reason that is why there the LightSquid report is odd and pfSense gui is still saying that it's running. Has anybody encountered this issue? How did you resolved it? Many thanks in advance. Jan Helo, jan, Be careful, as submicron - Global Moderator - Sr. Member, said on: http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,5729.msg54580.html#msg54580 "In fact, … installation of many packages, some of which are problematic." You can be triyng to install many packages (5 or more), and/or tryng to use a "problematic" package, or using it in conjuction with a "problematic" package. I sugest you, to try the same, but installing less packages. Regards.

    I have tried both fixes (curl and ini_set - seperatley) but finding that it takes forever to download the rules files no matter what I use. If I download the exact same URL that /usr/local/www/snort_download_rules.php is using at the same time but on a desktop that is on the LAN net behind pfSense, it downloads in a couple of minutes. (no caches involved) Multiple attempts on the pfSense box return the same results. Traffic shaper is turned off and pfSense is 1.2 prod. ls on the temp dir (eg /tmp/snortRulesJ0rIr3/) show it downloading, but very slow .. -rw-r–r--  1 root  wheel  167363 Jun 14 20:02 snortrules-snapshot-CURRENT.tar.gz -rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  6637801 Jun 14 20:26 snortrules-snapshot-CURRENT.tar.gz Once done, the rules file is a complete file, but Snort downloading seems to hang and does not download the md5 hash. Is there any other additional hacking needs to be done to the snort_download_rules.php file to allow it to progress ? Does anybody have the above fixes to consistently work ? Thanks.
