    @marcelloc:

    @luke240778:

    So i am guessing that the install of Sarg somehow changed or messed up Lighttpd?

    Anything i can do to get this sorted out?

    As I told you, there are pfsense users using both.

    Your reply doesn't even moderately answer my question..  I am not asking if it is possible to run them both or not, i already know you can..  i am asking, from what i have already mentioned, if there is some way that the install of Sarg via command line using pkg_add has caused a problem to lighttpd?  Not at all mentioning or talking about the pfSense package of Sarg that i have later installed and is working.

    I just need to get this Lightsquid reports sorted and working as i find it a much nicer interface than this Sarg one that i have now got working.

    It looks to me like WCCP is what we are looking for.  The problem is that we do not have Cisco infrastructure so the other option we may have to go with is an inline filter with bridged network interfaces.

    A monastery you say. Interesting.  :)

    If you are familiar with tomato and flashing it to router you should have no problem getting a handle on pfSense. It can seem a little overwhelming at first.

    I have never used tomato (though I have used dd-wrt and OpenWRT) so I can't comment on that directly. However there are a number of bandwidth limiting options in pfSense, I would expect to be able to get a better solution using it.

    The Alix has a maximum throughput of 85Mbps without any services, such as QoS, running. I would advise you to use something more powerful. Can you continue to run it as  VM?

    Captive portal is no problem.

    I am unsure about throttling from a consumption point on a per user basis. Others have asked similar question though, try searching the forum.

    Because reflection can't work in combination with Squid. You'll have to have split DNS in that case.

    @wallabybob:

    @yaw:

    @wallabybob:

    An earlier post reported this problem on sk interfaces. Are you seeing a similar problem on vr interfaces?

    Can you reference the post, and I'll take a look?

    See replies 3, 9 and 11 of this topic. I'm curious if this is a problem of a particular class of NIC or a more generic DHCP problem.

    Sorry.. I thought you were talking about another thread. Yes, this is the same issue except with the vr interfaces. It only happens with DHCP, and I can replicate it every time.

    @torontob:

    Am I not right with the assumption that should be always UP and running?

    You are not right: "No carrier" means the NIC is not seeing the carrier signal that should be coming from the switch or other computer that could be connected to it. "No carrier" means there is no-one to talk with hence the link can't be UP. The NIC is broken or it is disconnected or the NIC on the other end of the cable is disabled.

    I just found a better way to see the incomming messages.

    In rsyslog.conf use template RSYSLOG_DebugFormat
    . /var/log/debuglog;RSYSLOG_DebugFormat

    Debug line with all properties:
    FROMHOST: '72.172.219.179', fromhost-ip: '72.172.219.179', HOSTNAME: '72.172.219.179', PRI: 38,
    syslogtag 'sshd[463]:', programname: 'sshd', APP-NAME: 'sshd', PROCID: '463', MSGID: '-',
    TIMESTAMP: 'Apr 22 14:05:14', STRUCTURED-DATA: '-',

    I think it'd be a worth a shot to see if it works.  I suspect there may be some overlap in many of the UPnP/Zeroconf protocols.  I agree that it's a little ironic that we're discussing SSDP in conjunction with an Apple product, as I'd expect to see this protocol more in Microsoft-related gear.  I suppose it's been around long that it's an accepted standard.

    And while I'm on the topic, I'll personally add that I don't think DLNA is deserving of the title of "standard" or "protocol" or anything that even hints at interoperability.  I think DLNA abuses the term "standard" the same way the financial community abuses the term "security" – misleading to the point of outright lying.  I had to plow through too many software transcoders for a client's video project searching for something to work with their available Sony hardware.  A lesson in frustration as all their hardware & all the available software I came across claimed to support the identical version of DLNA.  I found Conceiva's Mezzmo the best if anyone cares.  I'll stop ranting now since it's not pertinent to the OP's topic & this thread.

    Best to use a span port on your switch or a network tap. You can use the span feature of bridges to accomplish the same.

    is there a place to measure it? cuz by visual confirmation… youtube for example is streaming from cache (i can clearly see that) but the speed is as it's from the internet... maybe there's a fine tune?

    Thanks for replying guys. I have a maximum of 600 global connections in my uTorrent settings.

    Look at the following screenshots, it just plummets when adding more torrents… You see the dip in the first screenshot? I accidentially added then removed another torrent.



    EDIT: Installed the latest beta of m0n0wall (freeBSD 8.2), same problem there =/ Also tried exchanging the DLINK (acting like a switch) for a 24 port Netgear rack mounted switch, same problem. So it's either my ISP/connection or the firewall. Gonna reinstall the DLINK as a router now and test.

    EDIT2: Ok, connected my laptop straight to the WAN connection. 4 torrents = 9.7MB/s.

    So clearly, it's the firewall messing it up.

    EDIT3: The plot thickens… Installed ClearOS, same problem from my torrent machine. Laptop speeds @ almost 10MB/s!? There must be some very weird setting on the uTorrent machine that bogs down my whole connection?

    EDIT4: Complete reinstall uTorrent, cleared registry from entries and did some tweaks. All is well now, running at 10MB/S which is the limit I put in uTorrent.

    Thanks for trying to help!

    A well-supported Atheros-based AP with OpenWrt on it can satisfy those requirements when you need something cheap (possibly other device/OS combinations will work, too, but I have no experience with others for those types of devices, as OpenWrt is the only third-party firmware that supports mine).
