    @microserfs and what IP was that - clearly your current IPv6 address is not block that I show you connected with.. And the only other IPv4 I see you using is not blocked.. You would have to let me know what IP you were coming from that was blocked.. Send it to me via PM if you don't want to make it public.

    Name it "run.sh", copy to pf and chmod according documentation

    You will see messages in the system log like those quoted in the script after logger command.

    I believe it is. I tested it a few days ago. Though it was a local synthetic test.

    The 2.0.x line is ~7 years old. We have fixed thousands of bugs and security issues since then. It doesn't matter if you believe it is stable, it's not secure.

    FYI - Sync.com has what I would call a 'SPAM' type uninstall process. There is no 'Uninstall" option in the start menu. You cannot uninstall from 'Programs and Files" - It says "You do not have administrative rights to uninstall this program..."

    First, you have to open the app, then choose 'uninstall' on one of the tabs. it took me 5 times to get this to work.

    That's not all!!! The only way to truely ununstall it is to go to their website and download a special 'exe' file to uninstall it. (Got knows what that does)

    I would officially call Sync.com MALWARE. DO NOT INSTALL IT.

    The reiews I've read do not correlate to my experience with the product whatsoever.

    If you had a different experience, I'd live to hear it. (Before you opine, did you try uninstalling it?)

    Thought you were on a break.. ROFL!!

    I could put you on one if you want ;) Think 2 weeks would be long enough?

    If your using a vpn and those IPs get on a black list, sorry that is on you... Not the ones using the blacklists.. Your IP that starts with 184.75, is on the stopspam db from just a few days ago..

    And is on multiple other black lists as well..

    Rico,

    I am resorting to https://www.netgate.com/resources/ videos for making another attempt at this.

    The firewall NAT and rules are in place for OpenVPN and I do not think that is the problem.

    I am just unsure whether to set up OpenVPN server mode as remote access, site-to-site, or WAN.

    I am unsure about as well as the client export. Maybe Interface IP addresses?

    The interesting thing with this is that MS RDP is also not working anymore for another remote microsoft box with the same wan static ip and destination port notation as before after we moved offices and were issued a new fiber circuit ID from att and they shifted some IP schema (WAN/IPv4 Lan block) while migrating LAN IPs within our gateway.

    The external PCs for these remote employees are in other parts of the world but the problem is that we have an ATT managed router and thus it could be interfering with the VPN tunnel. I am almost sure the DGW is correct and we have a static IPv4 address on the WAN interface in our firewall but have not been able to verify as I have been trying to get into contact with the AT&T Lifecycle managed internet services engineers in India to no avail. For being a mega tech giant att data engineers resources are so frustrating. They shift some things and don't communicate to network admins unless you probe them incessantly! My sales account exec and service manager is also practically useless with this matter.

    Very thanks to everybody that have answered to me.

    Ramses

    Solved: More Information About My Fix:

    -I wasn't right with my last post. I've solved the issue after a month of trial..(and error)... I should get 400mbps. My town is slow with advertised speeds. However, I realized that my modem was a problem...and also pfSense 3100-SG (bc of my configuration.) I had an ISP modem. I bought my own modem. Solved it. Done. I also Over-Did pfBlock-NG. Way too much blocking. The -devel- suggested blocking along with the lists I like made the connection messed up. I narrowed it down to a great listed from git and dshield. I am going perfect for 2 weeks.

    Depends on what you're actually talking about and how the traffic is routed to you.

    What you enter into the Local Networks box is translated into the “push route” option in the config.
    So entering your networks into the Local Networks box is the preferred way to go.

    Chill out. You are spamming the thread. Maybe it correctly identified your behavior.

    Take a while. Collect your thoughts. It's a forum, not a stream-of-consciousness chat server.

    This thread has outlived its usefulness, and all questions have already been answered. It's not intended to be for rants.

    @stephenw10

    Curiously enough, on my initial install with package manager, my services - lcdproc config screen was empty. I uninstalled the package earlier this afternoon and as luck would have it could not try the reinstall until now. 2nd time was the charm it seems. Thanks for the reply.

    It's most likely the proxy or pfB. Properly disable them and try your test again. If you're running squid in transparent mode, you could add your site's hostname to the Bypass Proxy for These Destination IPs list.

    @jantypas said in A more up-to-date pfSense?:

    Dare I say it, other than pf filters, what is BSD about pfSense that couldn't be ported to a modern Linux environment?

    You've already heard of TNSR? There are a few things you scratch, why it's running on a Linux core (FD.io & DPDK and more). As SCLR was also mentioned besides TNSR a year or so ago, I was instantly thinking: Hmm.. 'pfSense 3.0' could very well be something along the lines of SCLR. Same fast core underneath with fd.io/dpdk with CLI, API etc. and "just" put a pfSense style UI on top (docked via API). So I don't think it impossible you get away with murder ;)

    OTOH some have to see, that pfSense Devs already do and commit much of their stuff upstream into FreeBSD so... calling BSD dying etc. has been going on for years. It's still there :) Any way I think we still have much to see where this is headed.
