    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.

    @andresbraga if you still have the firewall rules as you posted, then I don't know why from the laptop you can't ping the pfSense Wireguard address 10.10.6.1 nor the pfSense gateway 10.10.1.1 What is the routing table of the laptop. And I would run a packet capture on pfSense and check what you see if you run the ping to 10.10.1.1 or 10.10.6.1.

    Hi, Softflowd traffic is sending to the collector based on the pfSense routing table. In your case, I suppose you have got a static route to join the collector through OpenVPN1 interface. So, it's OpenVPN1 the source interface.

    Even if they were encrypted before being put in there, they are still in plain text in config.xml. If you don't like that, set the user password to MD5-Password and put the hash in and not the actual password in FreeRADIUS. Keeping them plaintext but encrypting/hashing them in the users file would be pointless.

    Open a ssh shell. Goto /var/log. Stop tinc in the gui. Save tinc.log somewhere, just in case. Do clog -i -s 511488 tinc.log #This makes a new bigger, blank, circular log file. Restart tinc in the gui In the gui Status -> Services restart syslogd Profit. For further investigation, find out how to fix this in the installation.

    Hi, Something you didin't mention, but probably did : When changing, for a example, the SOA in a zone file, and this zone is also updated by RFC 2136 (dynamic), you have to : rndc freeze <zone> Only now you can open, edit, and save the zone file. rndc reload <one> rndc thaw <zone> Syncing the ".jnl" == journal file is ok, buth bind keep the actual working zone structure in memory, not in the actual file you are editing. Btw : I don't know if all this is done by pfSense, but when you edit the file, use these 3 "rndc" sequences. The action is visible in the "general" log - if the bind package has such a facility : Example : 16-Aug-2018 15:30:14.300 general: received control channel command 'freeze home.brit-hotel-fumel.fr' 16-Aug-2018 15:30:14.300 general: freezing zone 'home.brit-hotel-fumel.fr/IN': success 16-Aug-2018 15:30:27.940 general: received control channel command 'reload home.brit-hotel-fumel.fr' 16-Aug-2018 15:30:35.636 general: received control channel command 'thaw home.brit-hotel-fumel.fr' 16-Aug-2018 15:30:35.636 general: thawing zone 'home.brit-hotel-fumel.fr/IN': success

    You should most likely create a new thread if you feel you have found a bug, and if can duplicate it then please open a redmine on it. Locking this thread since it is 7 years old. And freerad 2.x is no longer a new package anyway.

    @yummy909 said in Suricata fail to start: I gotcha. I will do some searching. Thank you for help getting over that hump. I didn't read that anywhere, where the core count causing that issue. Wonder what else that is effecting. The Suricata developers have worked on making that error message offer a better hint to the solution, but they still have a ways to go. There was some discussion about it on their bug site several months ago. This particular issue has bitten a handful of Suricata users on pfSense that have high core count CPUs. Bill
