  Try outbound NAT manually - only for 192.168.2.0/24 PPPoE is not encrypted  tunneling -  encrypted is PPTP.. Też pozdrawiam z Polski ;-) R.

  dd on any unix box (or cygwin).  I usually dd an image for archive and then use physdiskwrite later for writing CF cards. –Bill

  Alright I'll raise the states…  ;D The Load Balancer is working now I've done the Monitor IP address things, and so far the net hasn't gone down. Thankfully. I love the new RRD graphs in Beta3  ;) I still get these messages though. slbd[11921]: Service changed status, reloading filter policy And I got (some time in the early hours of the morning) Apr 26 04:47:26 php: : There were error(s) loading the rules: - The line in question reads []: Apr 26 04:47:26 kernel: pool_ticket: 993769 != 993770 So I'm still not sure what's going wrong, but hey, the internet seems to be working!!

  It does.  This isn't FreeBSD, it's pfSense.

  @VaCUm: I'm running pfSense at home on a old Pentium II and i use a CF-card instead of a hard drive. I have changed /etc/platform to wrap and disabled logging to minimize disk activity. You want 'embedded' not wrap btw. –Bill

  How does openntpd perform in a high IRQ (interrupt) environment?  A number of my machines on OpenBSD run 15K + interrupts/second - with that load, ISC's ntp daemon sucks ass.

  upgraded to beta 3, but before i did it happened two times earlier that day. Some times it last up to two hours of not being pingable/ssh'd into etc/etc. Other times it only lasts 20 min. so we will see how beta 3 does. Beta 3 so far seems much more responsive just through the menus and such. great work!

  Both WRAP and Soekris platforms work fine. Confirmed here on both Soekris platforms (4801/4501). Btw, I prefer a serial cable over a monitor and kayboard. It's cheaper! I can only agree to that. And it needs less space ;)

  I somehow don't trust this subnetmask (255.0.0.0). Also note that the gateway is outside your WAN subnet. These settings don't make any sense to me.

  576 is pretty low. Try pinging with no fagment flag: ping -f -l <lenght><wan-gateway ip="">(windows syntax) your mtu should be the highest length you are able to ping +28 (overhead). A typical mtu value for DSL should be 1492 but your's seem to be lower as this is the default value pfsense will use for pppoe. Try to find out your maximum with ping.</wan-gateway></lenght>

  Un-numbered pppoe?

  @magi.sys: Is it possible to have what they call unnumbered pppoe setup with pfsense? I have 8 static ip addresses assigned to me via broadband, and here's what my current router does. It assigns an ip address to itself on the WAN, and bridges to the interenal network that has 5 static ip addresses in the same subnet. Can pfsense be setup like this? Probably not, but pfSense can give you an extra useable address.  Instead of the lame 5 that you get cause the router eats one and won't let you use it for NAT'ing, you get six…pfSense will let you use that sixth IP for NAT. --Bill

  LCDproc is usable, with a few restrictions, I think! A few month ago, i connected a 4x20 HD44780 LCD to my pfsense-pc to parport, using std-winamp-style. But, IIRC, the lcdproc-pkg was built for FreeBSD 5.3? So I endet in building my 'own package' on another BSD-machine. Transferred to the pfsense, it was working (CPU, Mem, Disk), except of everything that depends on network-data. So the Problem may be the (not) pf-specific code of LCDproc? Because of having no deeper knowledge on BSD's, I did no further testing. But nevertheless I think a Status-Display would be very nice to have…

  That sounds exciting, especially if you're thinking along the same lines as paragraph 2 in my original question, like the capability you get on some of the Cisco enterprise-class switches.  It'll save me having to drag out and connect in a hub every time I want to monitor something. I'm glad I moved over to pfSense.  You guys are doing great work!

  Squid authentication is not yet included in the squid package though theoretically possible. However, doing it via squid would only affect proxied connections (http, https) and not every connection attempt at any port like the captive portal does.

  Yes that is the function that allows you access it from internal.  It looks like something is connecting and aborting the connect often.

  OK, thanks! I finally got access to my webgui again…  it wasn't a bug, it was just a misstyped port for the webgui. Anyway, I found that if you use a different port for the webgui, some of the utilities, don't work, but I'll start a new topic for this in order to get the forum clear. Thanks again for your help people!!! :)
