    @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.

    @keyser Clarify "it makes sense if the GEOIP DB has that size" are you referencing the asn data as I have shown or the maxmind data? the asn data takes all of 15 seconds to download and process. Not really any "magic" going on there, you can see the mmdb is only a download referenced and the asn.csv.gz is basically just unzipped. I can't comment on the maxmind data specifically because I don't use for my geo location. But I can see what the code should be doing. seeing your actual log file will help determine where your specific spike may be coming from, but if I had to guess from looking at the code and my timing with respect to the asn parts of it I would guess this is most likely to be an issue with the maxmind parts - timing should be in the log. can you change when it runs ? no, not directly, there is no way to do this without changing the code to target a specific time when it creates the cron job in the first place. No you can't change the timing of the cron job and have it stick, it will eventually just go random again. On the other hand, yes, because I changed the code here so it always creates the same "not so random" time.. runnning at same time every day since this code change first became available in the pfblockerNG update for 24.11 that came out months ago, well before 25.07 curious you originally said "noticed this after upgrading to 25.07 and pfb 3.2.7" were you running the "new" format of asn data before? (would have only been possible if you upgraded from 24.11 with the latest version of pfb installed) you would have entered and ASN key at some point to make it work. did you do that under the prior version and just now with 25.07) it's likely not significant, but then again .... That likely won't help your spike, other than moving it to a different time. I moved it here to a static ("not so random") time for other reasons, nothing to do with system load at the time.. Log files would be helpful. (just the snippet that applies to this time, from extras, error and pfblockerng logs there may be nothing in error or pfblockerng related to the time it is running. .

    @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.

    @raidflex said in updating to acme 1.0 breaks system beyond repair: need to restore from backup: maybe uninstall Crowdsec when applying other updates first. It seems like it doesn't help at least from what I see on my system... it changes something.. so it must be definitely reported to their github. I have never experienced that before and crowsec was installed.. maybe with 2.8.0 something have changed

    Strangely enough, checking the system 4 days later, I now see that Wireguard service is reported running! The last thing I did 4 days ago was to disable Wireguard service monitoring by the Service Watchdog. Anyway, even when it was reported stopped at first, 4 days ago, the tunnels were working flawlessly. Very strange. I will keep an eye on it.

    Ah, sorry, I neglected to mention in my first post that when I set it to usbhid-ups it also does not start: $ /usr/local/etc/rc.d/nut.sh start starting usbhid-ups Network UPS Tools: 0.29 USB communication driver - core 0.33 (2.2.2) Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.2.2 usbhid-ups failed to start At least, the change is supposed to made in the nut.xml file such as the following, right? <option><name>APC Back-UPS USB</name> <value>usbhid-ups00</value></option>

    You need to edit your freeradius conf files for it to work with peap in: /usr/local/etc/raddb/eap.conf Un-comment appropriate lines: eap-tls-ttls-peap… and in : /usr/local/etc/raddb/radiusd.conf make sure you have eap in authorize You can find guides on how to setup wireless auth in freeradius on their site...

    squid.conf is rebuilt from squid.inc on each boot.  If you make your changes to squid.inc, everything should "stick".

    Got it working my first mistake was searching for sipproxd it is spelled SIProxd… The second issue is I had firewall rules in place to open ports that was not necessary do not apply firewall or NAT rules even though on the SIProxd page says to make sure the firewall was not bolcking ports. The third issue I found was that the min and max RTP port range was not showing up in the siproxd.conf file located at /usr/local/etc/siproxd.conf with the fields being blank I had to enter the ports into the boxes to get the entry to show up in the conf file. And the last hurdle was to get my hardware client to connect I found siproxd is not transparent I needed to specify an outbound proxy on my hardware client.

    @lordarcane: Dvserg. Does your reply mean that HAVP for pfsense can work with Squid in transparent mode now? I was under the impression that you were working on that. Possible test this ? (Squid transparent => havp ) In non-tranpsarent mode this work.

    This may be a non-issue.  The following command issued in a failover scenario with RR:       dig @ns.domain.com A www.domain.com …produces the duplicate entry response described above. But a simple:       dig A www.domain.com ...returns just the one record.  Apparently just a feature/bug of dig.
