    @andrew_cb said in haproxy 0.63_2 weird behavior, edits not working: @iSagen @TheCyborgWeasel The issue is likely the same as in https://forum.netgate.com/topic/178348/haproxy-backend-port-changes-are-not-applied/ Try adding load-server-state-from-file none to the Advanced Settings > Backend pass thru section of each backend. Great! I will do this.

    @NRgia said in Suricata on Pfsense: @bmeeks Thank you for what you did for Snort or Suricata. I'm not sure what you want me to do on Redmine, due to is a bug tracker. My question is for Product Management, which I will ask it here to be public: What is the plan for these 2 packages, Suricata and Snort? Thank you Yes, Redmine is for both bug reports and feature requests. Asking for the Suricata binary to be updated to the latest 7.0.11 version from upstream is a legitimate Redmine request. I would suggest simply asking for the binary version update instead of asking about future Netgate strategy (such as the support plans for the packages). Strategy discussions typically don't get very far because they deal with proprietary information or plans that a company may not want to publicly discuss. Redmine is where the Netgate developer team tracks all the code changes they make for pfSense. They will see Redmine reports much quicker than a forum post.

    @Leon-Straathof Data retention settings are handled inside of ntopng. Documentation here. Pay attention to the RRD note. Also, if you've turned on some of the slice and dice time series information (is off by default), I'd suggest turning them back off. These balloon the storage requirements and are of little actual use.

A NAS can go outside for maintenance purposes, for example to look for updates of it's system. These could be located anywhere of course. The GeoIP IP created a rule for you. How and where do you use that this rule ?

    @jhg said in NUT fails to start after 2.7.2 -> 2.8.0 upgrade: Interesting. I would have thought the initial reboot, which occurred as part of the upgrade, would have done the trick, but it took a second reboot, just now, to get things working. Glad you have it sorted. There was no difference in the output of usbconfig show_ifdrv at any point -- before or after unplugging/replugging the USB cable, nor after rebooting. ... Question: What would tell me whether or not a driver was loaded? If there were an attached driver, it should have shown up with the show_ifdrv command. If you use the command and look at the other usb devices, I think they will show attached drivers. I don't expect to see a driver attached to the ups, because there is a quirk that tells the OS to ignore that device (and not attach a driver). Look for idVendor and idProduct in the above output. The Vendor ID for your device is 0764, which corresponds to Cyber Power Systems, and the Product ID for your device is 0601, which is registered as "PR1500LCDRT2U UPS" (don't sweat an exact match for the name). You can see the quirk with the following command: [25.07-RC][root@fw]/root: usbconfig dump_device_quirks | grep 0764 VID=0x0764 PID=0x0005 REVLO=0x0000 REVHI=0xffff QUIRK=UQ_HID_IGNORE VID=0x0764 PID=0x0501 REVLO=0x0000 REVHI=0xffff QUIRK=UQ_HID_IGNORE VID=0x0764 PID=0x0601 REVLO=0x0000 REVHI=0xffff QUIRK=UQ_HID_IGNORE [25.07-RC][root@fw]/root: Your device is third on the list. The HID_IGNORE quirk says to ignore the device and not attach a driver. @jhg said in NUT fails to start after 2.7.2 -> 2.8.0 upgrade: You might consider adding this resolution to the release notes for 2.8. LOL... sorry, I don't have input to the release notes (I don't work here). While I wrote and maintain various packages, including NUT, I'm still just a volunteer. Most packages are actually written by volunteers.

    Since my upgrade to 25.07-RELEASE (amd64) built on Tue Jul 22 22:24:00 CEST 2025 FreeBSD 15.0-CURRENT, on one end of my most important tunnel, the tunnel still works fine, but the pfSense GUI keeps reporting the service as stopped. I had to remove its monitoring from the Service Watchdog which was also trying to start it, without success. Yet the trafic flows correctly. I'm holding off upgrading my other boxes. Is there something I could do to help diagnose?

    Curious if there's any update on resolving this issue. Is there a place I can file a ticket to resolve it? Alternatively, can anyone suggest the location of the services startup script that gets run each time the WAN IP address changes. I'm happy to tweak that script if needed. Thanks

    Maybe a typo. Did you joined machine to domain and changed squid auth to use ntlm? If don't, take a look on any samba+ squid tutorial.

    My question would be if you still have the VM to test with if ipblocklist stops working when you install squid and squidguard. If so then you may be able to reverse that. I think you have two options: 1. Remove Squid or 2. Upgrade to pfblocker. Sorry for the late response.

    @hcoin: Success!  Thanks very much.  For me, not deleting the recipient filename on save is needed more than v2.9 I've published version 2.3.3_1 with valid recipients fixes and improvements. The local file now is remote url fetch and is updated via cron as well. To force a update and see if there is no fetch erros, run /usr/local/bin/php -q /usr/local/www/postfix_recipients.php from console att, Marcello Coutinho

    Hello, I found that actually going and changing the location of the log in the squid and then changing back, normaly resolves the issue. ;) do restart the service between changes ;) hope this is useful :)

    Bump.  It gets worse… Not only does the postfix forwarder erase the relay recipient filename (try it, put a filename in, hit save and see field is erased when the save completes),  but also... Any time a user pushes 'save' in the GUI on the postfix screen, the relay recipient file is erased.  So, external processes that try to keep it updated have to refresh it frequently never knowing when the gui might erase it.

    I know that which is fine for common false positives. The problem however is: a) you don't actually disable the rule so it is still inspecting the traffic with the rules and then not alerting so if it was something that was really heavy load and hitting often - it is actually disabled so you are still getting that load. b) you can't enable any rules (well have them stay enabled after your update) that you may want to use c) you can't properly tune the sensor to disable what you don't need to improve performance d) you don't reduce the false positive risk (i.e you may suppress the FPs you have seen but you don't know if a sig for some 2006 vulnerability is going to block something even though you patched it and it isn't used anymore by attacks).

    Well I actually fixed two of problems: Suppressing those Snort alerts via this link: http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,41533.msg220893.html#msg220893 and adding the ability to view offending packets in the Snort logs using this mod: http://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/2008 So, the only question left is: Is it possible to manually block an IP with Snort, without adding a new firewall rule?
