    The connection appearing very slow like that can be some sort of asymmetric routing problem. Does the client you're connecting from have any other way of reaching pfSense 2? Like a wifi connection maybe? Steve

    Yes, you can just get a new token and reregister it.

    @stephenw10 freeradius does not natively support TOTP. Indirectly it can be supported, for example in Debian I use freeradius together with libpam-oath and oathtool (for example), where I can specify a "self-centering" tolerance window, meaning that after authentication the system knows the time offset of the client and centers it in the its window of "tolerance" The fact is that if you don't use systems of this type it is almost impossible to use hardware tokens.

    @mauro-tridici CASE closed: adding a new filter rule in /etc/rsyslog.conf I had been able to have a new file with only the information related to pfBlockerNG logs. Many thanks to all of you for the help. Mauro

    I meant do you have access to the OpenVPN server or the application server to check for incoming connections? If you don't then check at the pfSense end for the expected states when you try to connect.

    @DenBeiren Use a webservice like https://www.whatismyip.com/ on every host I guess.

    Ok, then I would try setting a limit on the arc.max initially.

    Mmm, the promiscuous setting is new in 23.05. I would guess something failed to upgrade resulting in a mismatch somewhere.

    @dakapo said in Slow upload speeds - download is fine (XGS PON): The current situation is as follows: I did a factory-reset of the Zyxel yesterday in the afternoon. Since then the upload-speeds are fine. I continue observing the situation and will report about any changes again here. That is encouraging news. ️

    @bmeeks said in Potential bug in advanced setting not being saved: @jimp has already created a patch for this here: https://redmine.pfsense.org/projects/pfsense/repository/2/revisions/073a6baceffc4a363eac9369cc036fc7b19b919e. The original Redmine ticket is here: https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/14425#change-67694. I suspect you can apply the patch using the System Patches package. Thanks a lot, I missed that one :)

  • Not updating Thermal Sensor data in Status/Monitoring

    @Dobby_ These are my settings which I guess is why dashboard is ok. I decided to try setting up a monitoring tab for thermal sensors and selecting Advanced/Reset data, I assumed this would just reset the thermal sensor data, but it reset all RRD history. Documentation does say it clears all files! At that point, the thermal sensor tab started working and ran fine overnight. I now see this is stored in /var/db/rrd so maybe if had deleted /var/db/rrd/system-sensors.rrd it would have fixed the problem and kept my other history, too late now!

    Ah, nice! That looks like an issue with the NIC firmware then. Odd that you didn't see it before.

    @SteveITS Thank you. I followed a few links to test the onboard memory, and it turns out mine was pretty dead. I threw a new Transcend 512GB (TS512GMTS430S) in the Netgate 2100, flashed 23.01 on there, restored my config, and I've been solid for 2+ weeks. I will be looking into cleaning up my logging to reduce wear and tear. Thanks everyone!

    The cert error you see when updating against 23.05 is not related to this ancient thread. It's probably because the pkg repo is using data for the wrong branch. The first thing to try here is to go to Sys > Update > Update Settings and resave 23.05 as the elected branch. That will copy in the correct certs and keys for 23.05. Steve
