    you could create an alias & use that alias in firewall rules. (it'll be ip based, not url based)

    I don't want to be that guy who patrols ebay, but that listing went over the top for me. My feeling is –If you are going to try and build a business off Open Source at least follow the rules--. Especially obvious commercial vendors selling something like that..

    @Phishfry: Has this been the case in all BSD'S forever?? Shrug; these man sections are not anything BSD specific. It's only really useful when the manpage with the same name exists in multiple sections (obviously with different content).

    Don't specify a gateway for LAN, only WAN. Also, this is the General forum category for discussion about anything NOT related to pfSense.  You would be better off posting in either the Installation & Upgrades forum, or the General Questions forum.

    It's specific to a configuration that seemingly only FreeBSD uses by default. It's really a non-issue, should disable password logins if you're opened to the Internet, and if your password is guessable in the amount of tries you could get through you're doing it wrong. We dropped the grace time to limit the potential impact in 2.2.4 and newer.  https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/4875

    1 YES - setup rule on LAN2 to allow traffic to go anywhere ( similar rule like in LAN1, but use interface LAN2 for rules that apply on LAN2 ) or if you want some restriction according to your design. 2 YES - you can also setup a pfSense in Virtual Machine if you don't have spare HW for test - firewall.

    Fixed it.  I grabbed their bundle cert and used that instead of their class 1 intermediary server cert. When I looked up the chain of my cert when using their class 1 server cert, some of the intermediaries were SHA1-encoded.  Chrome seems happy now.

    Not a FreeBSD guy at all until I came across pfSense. Actually a long-time OpenVMS guy. I seem to learn a new language every year - Cobol, Fortran, Pascal, MUMPS (look that up!), C, C++ and nowadays I have to do HTML, PHP, JavaScript… and now Python is coming. Actually it is all the same. If you make useful subroutines with proper parameters and don't just make everything a global variable then code "just works". OO forces you to do it a bit more, but actually you could write good code in those old languages also.

    Idiot may be a strong word as well, but when you put pfSense in your title you are going to get looked at.. Obviously he sells off-lease firewalls and gets more hits with pfSense in his title. Maybe his version doesn't have the jumpers..I dunno.

    @KOM: I keep tight control over my networks and IP conflicts just don't happen here. Somehow I just knew this claim would come back to haunt me. Hey, I was being nice, I didn't even mention it  ;D Just kidding. Relax, be happy that you figured it out…
