    Can I use pgblockerng aliases in Haproxy?

    80758505-9bad-4dad-a80b-c159be1045a2-image.png

    If it was a firewall rule, typing pfb would produce a dropdown to select.

    Here it has to be written, but will it work? Is it supported?

    I saw where the Netgate kernel developer updated the Suricata package in the pfSense 25.07 development branch to work with the new kernel PPPoE driver. But so far as I know that updated package has not been migrated to 2.8 CE.

    Here is the commit into the DEVEL branch: https://github.com/pfsense/FreeBSD-ports/commit/68a06b3a33c690042b61fb4ccfe96f3138e83b72.

    The database name is vnstat.db and its location is under /var/db/vnstat.
    With "Backup Files/Dir" we are able to do backup or also with a cron.

    https://help.zerossl.com/hc/en-us/articles/360060119933-Certificate-Revocation

    edit: oh you prob out of luck

    You can revoke any certificate issued via the ZeroSSL portal. Currently, certificates issued via ACME can not be revoked from inside the portal - please follow the instructions of your ACME client for revoking those certificates.

    the gui in pfsense does not have the ability to revoke - you prob have to move the certs to something you have certbot installed to and revoke that way.

    I had a similar issue with Routed VTI over IPsec recently. FRR lost its neighbors after rebooting or when a tunnel went down. It never re-discovered it automatically. Only restarting FRR (either in GUI or via CLI) brought the neighbors back.

    When I manually added those under the OSPF neighbors tab in the GUI it seems to solve the problem as well.

    For 25.07 RC, this worked for me (run sh first)

    [25.07-RC][root@r1.lan]/root: sh # export IGNORE_OSVERSION=yes # pkg add https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:15:amd64/latest/All/tailscale-1.84.2.pkg # service tailscaled restart # tailscale up # tailscale version 1.84.2 go version: go1.24.4 # tailscaled -version 1.84.2 go version: go1.24.4

    @patient0 Thanks for further suggestions. The tunnel is definitely up and so I don't think this is a CGNAT issue after all. WAN firewall rule is in place for UDP on port 51823 (otherwise the tunnel wouldn't work, right?). I can ping from client 1 -> client 2 and visa versa and also ping all points in between like you suggest. I just can't open an HTTPS connection from pfSenseB from Client 1 using a browser. But I can do this the other way round i.e. from Client 2 to pfSenseA

    I will try and do some packet capture to see if that reveals anything.

    @Stay:

    @Justinw:

    Even in 1.01 and prior versions I've been able to use pkg_add for nagios, nrpe, webmin, and squid.  What packages are you trying to add?  I realize that its not the same as installing from source but its still not bad.

    I need a quagga package and more software, actually not package but port.
    Actually, I need full integration whole of the FreeBSD Ports Collection.  :P

    I've done this before on my pfSense box. All you should have to do is execute the following command. This will install the ports collection from the FreeBSD mirror. Then do a pkg_add -r name

    fetch -o - "ftp://ftp1.us.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/ports/ports.tar.gz" | tar zxf - -C /usr

    I would just ssh in and go to /usr/local/etc/rc.d  look for the snort startup script and delete it.  I don't imagine it works a whole lot different than other packages…

    @sdale:

    @sullrich:

    These are rule related problems.  I have no idea how to fix these, you are somewhat on your own here.

    Yea, I'm taking a look into it.

    I found the problem. It lies within my edit rule file. I will send the diff soon as I get it completed.

    hi

    looks like squid is working on some pc's only, i have 4 pf boxes, upgraded to 1.01, only 1 server made it with squid, the other 3 couldn't restart with squid installed,

    just to help.

    oops, spoke too soon, i just had a power failure today, and the only ps box that was running ok, didn't make it too, so none is of the 1.01 ps boxes restarting with squid installed.

    No, snort is not included. You have to download it after a fresh install.

    I believe most of the snort folders are left alone during an uninstall of the package. If you were to remove snort and then reinstall it at a later time, it will load up with your previous configuration as long as you didn't reformat.

    Thanks bill.

    Sorry I should have checked the man page.

    I see it forwards it directly onto the MTA once it hits the whitelist, meaning firewall rules probably need to be updated to allow Internet –> 172.16.16.7.

    However donations/bounties are a  good way to speed up a devs interest.

    Can you -or any other interested developer- make an estimate regarding the amount of a quagga bounty.
