That works as well.

ok, no one has an opinion or experience with this… I guess I'll try it and report if it works or not... :-\

Worked like a charm. Thanks johnpoz, and pardon the late appreciation.

i do that, but dont work.

i want to do this with a vpn (openvpn), the controller (WLC) is in on point and the AP in another.

Can you help me please??

I forgot to mention, while I haven't setup a NAT rule to point to TinyDNS, I do have the server enabled.  However, when I look at the logs tab I see the following error:

CSRF check failed. Either your session has expired, this page has been inactive too long, or you need to enable cookies.
Debug:

Could this be related to the Perl mismatch issue I'm also having with LightSquid (500 - Internal Server Error)?

@phil.davis:

Note: If you directly edit /etc/crontab, then that will be overwritten next time you reboot. The crontab is generated from entries the pfSense config.xml
To make it permanent, install the Cron package and edit the job from there - then both config.xml and /etc/crontab get updated.

Did not know that and guess I would not have found out till months later (since I rarely reboot the box).

Thanks alot man for the help.

:)

i found out that it was the FR2 log daily log files that were filling up the space. I changed the logging form the radius.log files to system logs and this should resolve the issue. Also i increased the size of the /var filesystem in the rc.embedded to 700MB since i'm running 2 GB of RAM on the system.

I am going to replace the embedded image i have with a full pfsense image. i'm just waiting on the new industrial CF cards to arrive so i don't have to worry about my R/W limits. :)

Interesting.. Didnt know Afraid.org did that…

PErsonally this is what i do

Create a domain within Afraid.org.... Remote.mydomain.com

Make it a Cname to whatever@homeip.net (Dyndns.com)

And then use pfsense to point and update Whatever@homeip.net. using dyndns.com

ITs free and easy to do! No hash tagging etc. In my pfense it just put in my username and password for Dyndns.com and BOOM!!! Updates

Wow, thanks for the heads up, I knew none of that, all I know of the guy before was his site, the utilities there, like ShieldsUp and DNSBench, which I'd seen recommended by somewhere reputable, seemed genuinely useful, and I don't have the technical chops to seriously evaluate much of any of it.  That 'What the world…' page, pretty harsh.  Well, great, now I feel even stupider, especially because empty hype disgusts me no end, and false hype is way worse.  Have a good one.

Totally agree, this is a workaround and everything needs double-triple checking, but this is the only way I found that suits my scenario. I needed DHCP server and DHCP relay on the same box. Moreover, I needed relay to work over OpenVPN tunnel. As far as I have tried (with 2.0 BETA, if I'm not mistaken), the pfSense DHCP relay did not work over OpenVPN tunnel. Maybe things changed over time, I haven't tried that with the 2.0.1-2.0.2 releases. The above mentioned FreeBSD dhcprelay package relayed through OpenVPN tun all the time with no problems, for about 5 years I think (previously used on FreeBSD before moving all routers to pfSense).

That's perfectly normal for any cable ISP.

bows
Right you are :)

Many thank all, I have completed the configuration pfsense :)

Then it may not be installed or running. Just get to the shell and run the rm command.

This was a fun one, pf wasn't at fault at all.

My DSL modem wouldn't pass packets bigger than a certain size.
This only happened once a day for ~20 min.

Youtube DNS query is about 10x the average query due to the 10 or so mirrors they include,
which is why it didn't work.
