OK. Great to hear!

BTW: Just for the records, can you mention what brands the working and the notworking switches are?

Thanks!

Install squid Block all outbound access via the firewall to 80/tcp and 443/tcp Configure squid to block access to www.orkut.com

Check the snapshot server in a bit and the new ISO should include the changes.

Can you post a specific URL to try?

@Cry:

If you are really limited to only a few rules then you need to sit down with somebody with a clue, explain your network and your concerns and work with them to highlight your top risks.  From there they can help you identify the most appropriate rules for you.

You'll need diagrams, details of applications and operating systems (including versions and patch levels), what the network is used for (web browsing, email, etc) and what your concerns are.

Re-read the last sentence in my previous post though before you go wasting your time.

I enabled the OpenNTPD service yet it does not display under "Status: Services".

I used the command "ps -aux" and found;

_ntp  91800  0.0  0.2  1344  1056  ??  S    8:50AM  0:00.07 ntpd: ntp engine
root  91801  0.0  0.2  1376  1052  ??  Ss    8:50AM  0:00.00 ntpd: [priv] (nt

I've installed pfSense numerous times and never seen that. My guess would be a corrupt file. Since your running the embedded version it would be easy enough to flash another compact flash card, using another box or live cd, restore your config to the compact flash card. Then just swap the card out. Downtime would be just the time it takes for the box to boot.

Sounds good, Heiko and anyone else interested I started up a Bounty.  Please go there and give your input and post your amount and I'll update the subject with the values total.
