ISTR that it is enabled by default and will connect to a randomly selected NTP server from pool.ntp.org.

I think you can change the listen port back to 80 from the config.xml

Thanks.

I see the thread you pointed me to was back in 2007. Any idea if any advance/workaround has been found for the schedule/CP incompatibility?

What you want is to use the squid and squidguard package to do content filtering.  Read the packages forums.

Its already on 2.0!

Hi, is there any other way to do it ? CMD line ?

In the interest of keeping people updated who might also be experiencing this issue, I've upgraded to a beta of 1.2.3, and things seem to be working alright.  The issue appears to be an issue with PHP, as detailed in this link:

http://pecl.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=12608

I'm not enough of a guru to do a spot PHP upgrade, so I figured moving to BSD 7.1 (as 1.2.3 is moving to it) would help with the issue.  Whaddya know, it seems to be working so far.  ;D

Alright, I managed to solve the issue. My WAN was on the motherboard's builtin card (broadcomm something) and LAN was on a 3Com PCI card (marvell's chipset iirc). Anyway, I tried something random and swapped the interfaces so that WAN was on the 3Com and LAN was on the builtin and I'm no longer experiencing connectivity issues.

FreeBSD, and thus pfSense will try to efficiently use all of your RAM. "Free" RAM is wasted RAM. Why would you want it sitting there empty?

You might find that it reports high usage, when in fact a good chunk of that may be in use for caching to speed up processing. It won't swap unless it has to do so, but it will if it really does run out of RAM. If it's using some RAM for caching, and a program needs it, it will handle that without swapping.

If you have console/ssh access, look at the first few lines of "top" and it will lay out how much RAM is being used for specific purposes.

Hi ermal.

I will read the manual of pf and see how to implemented this.

I appreciated your info, thanks again!!!

The dashboard package replaces the main page of the pfSense router with a fancier version that has customizable widgets. There are widgets that show system information, traffic graphs, firewall logs, interface status, service status, and more.

For a while the filter log part of the dashboard was broken, and I made some changes to the code that fixed it. As a part of those changes, I also added the command line parser I mentioned.

The version with the CLI parser should be online now, I posted it late Saturday night.

i already did a chmod 777.

Nevertheless thanks for reading my post.

Hi,

After a bit of research - here's what I found:

In 7.1 there is support for some USB based 3G cards in the usba module.

The problem seems to be switching these modems from storage mode (for driver install under Windows/OS-X) to serial mode.

one way around it is to use usb_modeswitch - but you would have to remove the usbmass module. the other way would be to use u3g

So, there seems to be some chance to get it working…
