    @ha11oga11o Your LAN DNS returns both pfSense and Nextcloud IPs, so clients bypass HAProxy. Add a host override in DNS Resolver for nextcloud.mydomain.xx pointing only to 192.168.1.1. Flush DNS, restart Unbound, and all local traffic will use HAProxy with the correct certificate.

    @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.

    @Gertjan Thanks a lot for your help. This really helped me: I'm not using "pfSense pfBlocker Web server logging" (DNSBL Webserver/VIP ) as the "you are blocked web page" only shows up when the end browser user visits http sites, something that doesn't exist anymore on the Internet. All sites are https these days, and https sites can be redirected to "another https web server" like the "pfSense pfBlocker Web server". With that hint I was able to resolve my issue by: Unchecking the Python Group Policy Enable checkbox for the DNSBL Webserver Configuration on the DNSBL tab in pfblockerng. Checking the Permit Firewall Rules Enable checkbox and selecting the appropriate interfaces for the DNSBL Configuration on the DNSBL tab in pfblockerng. Forced Update | All. It now appears that all the blocked domains are appearing on the Alerts tab in pfblockerng. I couldn't find that host name in the "/var/db/pfblockerng/dnsbl/Max_MS.txt" file - where does your "/var/db/pfblockerng/dnsbl/Crazy_Max_Extra.txt:" come from ? I get that DNSBL, and 2 others, from the original maintainer (https://github.com/crazy-max/WindowsSpyBlocker): https://raw.githubusercontent.com/crazy-max/WindowsSpyBlocker/master/data/hosts/extra.txt https://raw.githubusercontent.com/crazy-max/WindowsSpyBlocker/master/data/hosts/spy.txt https://raw.githubusercontent.com/crazy-max/WindowsSpyBlocker/master/data/hosts/update.txt. I really appreciate your help!

    @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 ?

    It was "working" with the pfil ordering patch but the kernel became unstable and would panic every 3-4 minutes.  Not exactly something we want to roll out without additional work being put into it. I plan on talking to a few folks during BSDCan to see what we can do.

    It's not that big of a deal. It'll only happen if you: Use a hub - Seriously, nobody should ever be using hubs anymore unless they actually do want to see all traffic. Use VM's on the same segment - putting your firewall on a separate VM network should be feasible and fix this have your firewall on a SPAN port - don't do that.

    We are not focusing on bringing a sambaserver to pfSense, however there is a package under developement that will install freenas as a pfSense package. This package requires code from the HEAD codetree and is just like HEAD itself not anywhere near done yet. Don't ask for release dates for this, nobody knows yet, not even the devs.

    yes, OK, i have tested it , for the initial start of snort after a complete reset to pfsense all works fine and the log is full. If i changed anything, for example "wan to lan" and back, the snort package is a little bit confused. The Service is started, but nothing happens, no logs… If i went "nessus" against the wan interface, nothing happens again. I don´t know, i think the package is not really clean, but maybe my test was incorrect...

    even if perl is not installed, PHP is installed and can do almost everything perl can (not sure what modules are installed on PFsense though). So if there is a perl script for this, look at the code and try to convert it to PHP (some help can be found here: http://www.cs.wcupa.edu/rkline/perl2php/)

    Turning off the server portion will NOT stop the client.  The client continues to run to sync the local system time even if it is not serving clients.

    It's prepared to work with the next upcoming version. It's not ready yet. We had done some testing with dummynet last night and it started working so we prepared the package (and other dummynetitems) to be available when the next release is done. However it seems to have some issues still as there have been random kernel crashes. So it's not sure if dummynet will/can be supported soon so maybe this package (and dummynet) won't appear in the near future.

    Got a chance to test this again. I had similar results to trendchiller on my test box- service wasn't starting after upgrading the package, but did a clean load and added the package fresh and it looks good. Thanks rsw for getting this package running smoothly.
