    Under status –> "system logs" ARE all events.

    If you compare them and go back in the logs you will find the problem that kicked the event in the header.

    Or just do an ASCII art diagram ;)

    I don't think your arrangement will work as is, if you want a transparent proxy then you need to have the pfSense host as a gateway between 2 different subnets.  If you don't mind it being a "normal" proxy then you'll need to read the threads about using pfSense with a single NIC.

    Log into pfsense.  On the main status screen you will see a version.  Alternatively you can cat /etc/version from a shell.

    If you want to use packages you need to use the full version –> install to a HD. Alternatively you can use a Microdrive (Harddisk in CF format)

    Well, I switched interfaces, making my LAN go to the Nvidia nve0 interface and my WAN go to my Realtek re1 interface and it doesn't crash anymore. It seems like it might have something to do with the dynamic window scaling on my vista box and one of those interfaces.

    Captive Portal has a redirection URL.  If you enable this once a user enters credentials they will be directed to a site of your choosing.

    I haven't found any that are that similar. PFSense is far better than any commercial SOHO firewall. In fact it rivals all commercial offerings in my mind. I've seen both WatchGuard and SonicWALL top of the line models crumble under a 20mb load that was a couple years ago. Cisco PIX is stable but far less intuitive than PFSense.

    Areas where PFSense excels beyond other commercial firewalls.

    Intuitive GUI
    Feature Rich
    Simple to Upgrade
    Best backup and restore
    Backup file is intuitive relatively easy to modify manually.
    Commercial Support is available and high level.
    Developers are generous and will respond to ideas, and questions.
    Customizations and new features are in reach even for the modest budget with a bounty.
    Leverages the power, security, stability, and maturity of the FreeBSD operating system.

    I would imagine that its a hard coded limit.  I don't think anyone has gotten anywhere near this number considering that this is the first that I am hearing of such a large deployment consideration.

    Really don't know how well this is going to work.  These really are unchartered waters.  And considering that when you make changes to PPTP it disconnects the client(s), I wouldn't see any difference on the PPPoE side as well.  If you are serious about this large of a deployment I would definitely do some type of test before going live.
