Why do you keep asking this 192.168.1.254 for time, who is he trying to sync with?  And where is your pfsense box set to sync with?

Is this address on your WAN or LAN?

I dont think your pfSense box will sync from someone on the lan…

If I had to guess, maybe 0.1% of the users who would even want to use that feature, would use it in its current form. The other 99.9% would want it based on group membership. So I think it would make sense for the platform in general to move in that direction, not just for any specific user's sake. But, I'm just guessing here.

As dotdash says, almost everyone will recognize "BSD firewall". I tell companies we have a pfSense box (and sometimes even m0n0wall) and they're like "what?". I have yet to meet someone that knows what they are. I tell them it's a BSD firewall and they say "ohh, ok".

A few examples just so you know what kind of feature I'm looking for:

OpenNop and WANProxy

The tftp proxy is used for internal devices to connect to external tftp servers. Typically when you have idiot voip phone vendors and your phones need to tftp their configs/firmware. In my experience, you turn it on and it works. For your situation, I would think you could just create a port forward on 69/udp to your internal server.

WAN1 and WAN2 are both connected to DSL modems. One is a 6mbit DSL line and the other is an 18mbit Uverse line.

Unless you have used the advanced options and configured it, there is no limit on state entries/connections from a particular host. I'm going to assume you would have mentioned it if you were running Snort or something. Have you looked at the states to verify RIM's servers are actually hammering the firewall? The guy in the link's problems might be due to the fact that Netscreens suck, your issue could be different.

Since I no longer have a 1.2.3 install I can't certain about this but in general….

You probably need to add a symlink called libncurses.so.8 and point it at what ever version of libcurses is part of pfSense 1.2.3.

Yes, I'm looking forward to that.
Thanks Jim!  :)

Have you reset firewall states? See Diagnostics -> States, click on Reset States tab.

Hi,

I am sorry but I didn't play with this kind of information. Cachemgr.cgi was just to give you some information about how squid performs.

"All Cached Objects" shows you all objects in squid but they are "encrypted". Here are some information about these lines:
14.2.1.26 objects: All Cache Objects
http://tilt.lib.tsinghua.edu.cn/docs/books/squid/TheDefinitiveGuideChinese/0596001622/squid-CHP-14-SECT-2.html

You will need to create a cron job. Install the cron job package and execute the command```
shutdown -r now

iftop is one of my favorite tools that does exactly what you're talking about. The only problem is that it's command line.

no one has any ideas ??? :(((((

@dvserg:

Found small bug in package. All files extract in /var/tmp.
Need
(1) move all lang…inc(php) files to the /usr/local/www
or
(2) download & reinstall package new (before uninstall package 'pkg_delete pfsense-lang-1.0').

Hi dvserg

thxs i used your first option mentioned.

using wincsp i uploaded the pfsense-lagn-1.0.tbz into VAR/TMP folder

then logged in via putty and selected option 8 shell

then

cd /var/tmp

pkg_add pfsense-lang-1.0.tbz

now it works i can see the menu, will try to upload new translated file now.  ;D

Thank you all (especially cmb), I will try to present my opinions on pfsense (separating it from the "pros and cons of open source in general") for my company, nice and gently without becoming a "fanboy", or a fanatic :)
