    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 ?

    @elvisimprsntr Updated 25.07.1 to 1.90.6_1, copied and pasted from @elvisimprsntr's post: pkg add -f https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:15:amd64/latest/All/tailscale-1.90.6_1.pkg (Why it worked this time and not on previous updates: Over the last couple of days, I ran into the "Shared object "libutil.so.10, not found..." error that triggered the version 25.07.1 update issues some of us have been having. After I fixed that error, I decided to go back to the usual update method, and it worked.)

    Hi @patient0, Already fixed :) reset and preformed a full new installation. The peer can connect and performed a successful Handshake, and ping pfsense, wireguard and lan servers. However psfsense and my Lan servers can't ping this peer even with the handshake performed. I know that ping can be misleading but don't now what else.

    But.. you did measure high ESR on the caps. So they were bad. Even if the unit seemed to be functioning fine, you saw bad caps. Doesn't that simply mean that regardless of NUT being right or wrong the hardware on that UPS is bad? Also, a unit that seems fine, even with bad caps cannot be trusted either :p It's also possible that there is more hardware damage than just those caps. An inverter with bad caps is a recipe for disaster.

    Hi Gertjan, the problem was permanent, a simple reboot didn't work. The problem was (because I've already solved it with a system+package reinstallation, that eventually went fine) due to a pkg-related sqlite database error that - despite applying the raccomandations given in other threads (i.e. forced update/upgrade of the system) - didn't solve the issue (and most of all, they were lenghty to execute). As the issue was created immediately after installation with no warning, I consider this solution a defeat. As a matter of fact, we still don't know the cause but the reinstallation was surely the fastest way to solve: I already know the beast. At the current state of the art and from my viewpoint, there has been a considerable loss of performance (mostly on pfsense boxes installed on nanobsd-powered embedded devices) and stability (as it is witnessed by the large number of threads in the forum about this topic) after the introduction of the pkg-based system upgrade/package management method.

    Hey, Thank you guys! The first 2 posts fixed my problem now the Radius works perfect! Is there actually any point  against the Radius Server working as a paket on the pfsense? I mean a security thing, or possible problems with the Firewall etc…. thank you The 3 blocking rules are just here to divide my Subnet from the others, normally there should be no match...it's just the point that there is no possibility to access the others

    What is ultrasurf ? edit : Ok, found it. I guess there exists a country filled up with people (half a million or so) who know how to use it to circumvent local 'policies'  - and the other half who knows how to block it. You surely will find some useful knowledge there. Start by blocking outgoing ports 80,443,21,22,53,110,465,587,993,995 and see what happens ;) Btw : think about protecting the gates of your company and have employees checked if they carry any smart phones. Enforce the PC's so users can't install unknown programs.

    Yeah it happens because redis fucks itself up - which happens at least once every months for me. I stopped using the package. Beyond it being a disk space hog, it's rather useless when you find yourself wiping all the history periodically because the thing has crashed. After experiencing Redis and MongoDB in a bunch of applications, I really don't have much good to say about these "fancy" way overhyped NoSQL products. They are unstable immature shit.
