    What hardware are you wanting to do this with - something dedicated to just pfsense and your Vms?  Or your workstation you do your normal work on?

    If dedicated - then install a hypervisor your choice - I use esxi, its FREE and rocks.  But you could use prob any of them you want - I would suggest a type 1 over 2 if this is dedicated to pfsense and other vms.

    Then as suggested you run your pfsense just like any other vm in your hypervisor..  You can then have your pfsense be router/firewall for your whole vm and physical network, or just as router between your physical network and your vms, etc.

    Here is doc that should get you going on the right track

    it's allways difficult to put yourself in another persons' shoes. thats why a problem so "easy' for some is incredibly 'hard' for others that aren't familiar with the material at hand.

    figuring out what is wrong with```
    SELECT * MORF mytable;

    in my experience, people here are friendly and will allways try to help.

    Make sure /var/squid/log actually exists and has the correct permissions. Usually, though, it's /var/squid/logs.

    I searched back through logs and it looks like a result of switching architecture from 32-bit to 64-bit but that was back when I installed 2.1 beta.

    Strange that the error suddenly changed from "This RRD was created on other architecture" which I had never noticed.

    Reset the RRD data and all appears to be OK.

    Ok… I didn't know that adding/removing a Cron job with a max. frequency of 2 minutes could be a problem or something to avoid...

    Also, what do you think is better, to use a "single text file" to store the notifications or use different small text file, one for each single notification? I am just worry that when 300 or more notifications are generated in few seconds there could be some kind of problem in managing the single text file...

    To update:

    Progress maybe just to the side tho!!

    Two servers: 192.168.1.200 & 192.168.1.201

    Urls: 1.a.com, 2.a.com, 3.a.com, 4.a.com.

    The two servers are set up as peers within the Webservers Tab of Reverse Proxy, they are both listed on port 80 and have their relevant IP address listed.

    subdomains 1 and 2 are meant to go to 192.168.1.200. 3 and 4 should go to 192.168.1.201.

    Everything is going to 200.

    Ideas?

    I can now confirm that with pfsense 2.1 BPDUs are exchanged properly when rstp is enabled on a bridge with the root bridge upstream.

    I ended up setting my 2950 switches to rstp defaults except for a cost of 37 on port 3 to put the pfsense2 box Lagg0 Lan interface into blocking mode.

    All is well!

    Well now I feel as your just throwing me a bone ;)  with that fine statement – hehehe

    As to security -- I personally have no issue with ping being allowed, and even it allow my public ip to answer ping..  Allowing it on your internal network should not be an issue at all.
