What are you complaining about?
If a command from the underlaying OS isn't accessible from the webGUI then start your compiler and implement it yourself.
If pfSense is ported to Delphi or C#, i'm your guy.
Thanks for the post, but what ended up working for me was:
mount /dev/ufs/pfSense /
This allowed me to write. I then tried to unmount with the same command but got no where. However after some time (30 minutes?) the file system put itself back to read only.
You might check the bios revision numbers between a working unit and the other four units… also look very closely at the chips on the boards to make sure they are the same revision levels as well - otherwise you will have to go the RMA route.
Very true - you will see if pfsense is detecting the processor cores but the question was to see if the cores were actually being used - the top command will show it whereas the dmesg will only show they were detected. :)
I wouldn't recommend disabling local logging, unless you have a specific reason for doing so. It's usually desirable to be able to see the logs from the webGUI as well as on your syslog server.
Your config is fine, my first guess is as onhel suggested, a firewall on the machine.
This has been discussed before, and the response is that you're on your own if you do. It's completely unsupported.
I would say that I strongly disagree with your final sentence. The most you should ever install on a firewall would be a proxy server or VPN endpoint. You should never run FTP/HTTP servers etc.
I applogize this is slightly off topic.
I was reading this thread trying to figure out if i may have an issue and find that the ntp engine is running however it hasnt updated in two days. the last time it updated was when i installed pfsense
Sep 24 21:37:42 ntpdate[251]: adjust time server 219.117.196.238 offset -0.061082 sec
I searched for a little insite into how offen it updates and possible problems.
I know the clock wasnt that far off but in two days there should be some drift to show in an update.
