    i am using pfsense 2.8.0 with haproxy 0.63_10 and i have 4 sites that redirect to two different web server, i am using two frontend, one for http request redirect to https using rule: scheme https, and a second with type ssl/https(tcp mode) to redirect the request with the acl and the action, now i want to add a new site to one of the web servers i create a new backend (and even tried duplicate) and add the proper acl and action as always did but for some reason since the update to 2.8.0 the redirect keeps going to the wrong backend, i tried a test and rewrote and old backend and updated the acl and rule in the frontend and it works fine, is there a known bug since the update because it keeps happening even after reboot to pfsense and the haproxy service and reinstall of the package.

    @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.

    @EChondo What's your pfSense version ? The instructions are shown here : [image: 1753262126227-1acdc586-cb29-4148-9e36-81ade4e5e60c-image.png] A restart of a service will start by re creating their config files. If a certificate changed, it will get included. When the process starts, it will use the new certificate. @EChondo said in Issue with ACME Certificates Refresh & Restarting HAProxy: I haven't been able to confirm if the above works(mine just renewed, don't feel like doing it again just to test), so we'll see in 60 days I guess. No need to wait x days. You can re test / renew right away, as you are 'allowed' to renew a couple (5 max ?) of times per week.

    Re: How to update to the latest Tailscale version? I am on latest released Netgate 6100 pfSense PLUS v24 ( pfSense_plus-v24_11_amd64-pfSense_plus_v24_11 ) pkg config abi FreeBSD:15:amd64 pkg -vv | grep -A 3 "pfSense:" pfSense: { url : "pkg+https://pfsense-plus-pkg.netgate.com/pfSense_plus-v24_11_amd64-pfSense_plus_v24_11", enabled : yes, priority : 0, cat /usr/local/etc/pkg.conf ABI=FreeBSD:15:amd64 ALTABI=freebsd:15:x86:64 PKG_ENV { SSL_CA_CERT_FILE=/etc/ssl/netgate-ca.pem SSL_CLIENT_CERT_FILE=/usr/local/etc/pfSense/pkg/repos/pfSense-repo-0001-cert.pem SSL_CLIENT_KEY_FILE=/usr/local/etc/pfSense/pkg/repos/pfSense-repo-0001-key.pem } This firewall is obviously running on FreeBSD 15 no longer on 14. But can I use the freshports link for FreeBSD 14 amd64 quarterly which is at tailscale 1.86.2 or can I only go up to version tailscale 1.84.2_1, and need to wait until they have a version of tailscale 1.86.2 or higher for the FreeBSD 15? Would it be good enough to tell it to ignore the OSVERSION? export IGNORE_OSVERSION=yes Note: use of 14 and not 15 ? pkg add https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:14:amd64/quarterly/All/tailscale-1.86.2.pkg service tailscaled restart tailscale up

    I've read through some other posts about this, but they either didn't say whether the proposed solution worked or they were very convoluted and difficult to understand. Here is our scenario: We have 6 locations--Las Cruces (LC), Sunland Park (SP), El Paso (EP), Abilene (ABI), Fort Worth (FW), and Plano (PL). LC and ABI have software that is accessed by the other 4 locations via VPN. There are WireGuard VPNs set up between LC and those 4 locations (SP, EP, FW, PL), and ABI and those 4 locations (SP, EP, FW, PL). There is also a WireGuard VPN connection between LC and ABI. LC and ABI have 2 internet connections. SP, EP, FW, and PL each have one internet connection. If the primary internet connection goes down at either LC or ABI and failover occurs to the secondary internet connection, is there a way to set up the WireGuard VPN connections so that they also failover without purchasing some 3rd party application? Thanks.

    @kbohlken If you install new packages on a production firewall it should not cause downtime. However, if you are updating packages on a production firewall, those services related to the packages will be unavailable for a short period. If you have SquidGuard working for example, and decide to update the package, the squid service will be restarted and squid will stop blocking pages for a short period, usually less than a few minutes. I always have 2 firewalls in HA Sync, and when I do updates I will swap production firewalls and only work on the standby firewall. I also make it a habit to reboot the firewall after installing or updating a package as I've had issues updating squid/squidguard in the past.

    @gertjan Hello I build my infrastructure It is not large in hardware perspective, but I've started to to integration of many apps that will have to have to be on a separate domains. Until now the internal resolver did the job, but now ... I need actual dns server. This is strange everywhere I open a discussion about BIND and DNS all I am getting is go somewhere else!!!!!! Never had a straight answer like this functions is for that that function is for that or if you want to do this just do this and this !!!! Never mind. Typically, you should isolate such a program, set up a test bed network and 'play' with. That's what I am doing right now I have a downstream network behind an other pfSense Firewall and that's where I am testing it. I also have a Ubuntu server behind this firewall with Virtualmin and BIND9 package installed with few test websites, but what I am trying to understand is some terminology and functions of BIND. So... I set in the Settings to listen on: all vlans, but there is an option on the bottom "Forwarder Configuration" should I set this "Forwarder IPs" to my upstream resolver or, if this option is not enabled it will simply look what DNS Servers set on System/General Settings ???? and.... In "Views" I have created and called "localview" where Recursion - Yes match-clients - Any but... allow-recursion - currently set to ANY, but this will be used for local zones isn't more secure to be set to "localnets" then "any" no matter if that is my downstream or upstream pfsense Thank you

    You're right, I delete certbot and install a selfsignated certificate. That works correctly. The problem come from LE. As the server is empty, I will reinstall it. Thank you for your help Benoit

    @karls0 Just to remember it: After reloading filters, I get following in Status | System logs | General: Unable to read included directory: /opt/etc/xinetd.d [file=/var/etc/xinetd.conf] [line=1] When I tried "less" and typed in the whole path (without the Tab-key) I got the message "/opt/etc/xinetd.d/check_mk: No such file or directory" So there must be an invisible character in the path. Therefore I deleted the directory /opt/etc/xinetd.d and created it new. I copied the file "check_mk" back into it and now xinetd runs :-)) Sorry, I cannot mark my post as resolved - if anyone can, please do it.

    No answer, quite disappointed. I had time to lean on it lately and managed to do what I wanted. Here's some catch if it helps anyone. Create your certificate (I use the OVH API but it works with the other method): [image: 1610639766221-createcertificate.png] You can create as many certificates as necessary (Pay attention to the limit imposed by the ACME packge, see link below) Rate Limits [image: 1610639971033-createcertificate2.png] In Haproxy, go to the frontend which manages the domain name linked to the certificates created previously (the one ending with "site" for me, it depends on your configuration). [image: 1610640212863-frontend.png] In the "certificate" section, choose one of the certificates to create (any you need). Check the 2 boxes "Add ACL for certificate ...." [image: 1610640406182-frontend1.png] In the "additional certificates" section, add all the certificates you need. [image: 1610640536408-frontend2.png] Check the 2 ACL boxes again [image: 1610640576109-frontend3.png] Save and apply the configuration. Domains are now in HTTPS.

    @gertjan I did the settings... All is fine. pfsense still running. Concerning BandwithD, it works also fine on my APU... pfsense usage is for personal use, with less than 20 devices on my Network. As you can see, CPU usage is low... (9%..30% depending on what I do). Only temp. is a little bit elevated due to the fact there is no cooling system. I also implemented zfs for better performances and reliability.

    I have solved my problem, for reference and for anyone who runs into the same problem: On the pfSense gateway 172.xx.xx.1 (the one in front of the InfluxDB server, which was working), add the following to the Telegraf configuration: [[inputs.influxdb_listener]] service_address = ":8086" This can be done at the bottom of the Telegraf configuration page. This activates Telegraf as a forwarder. On each other pfSense machine, I find the VTI interface IP, ie 10.88.88.xx and set the influxDB server as http://10.88.88.xx:8086. Now, the data is sent via Telegraf to the InfluxDB server, and arrives as it should. There would probably be other solutions with proxies, but this seems simplest.
