Definitely not a general problem. You'll need to trace the traffic with packet captures, make sure it's getting to the LAN side, make sure it's leaving the WAN side (or see where it isn't entering/leaving).

Thanks a lot. I'll give a look.

This was some time now and I don't have the log for that date.
But I understand that what you are saying is that not all interfaces, especially usb ones, support traffic shaping.

I have installed BETA4 (20100830) today over the 1.2.3 release version…
CRON showed up installed twice in 1.2.3 dashboard, so that was quite odd - but it worked just fine.

After upgrading, CRON appears to be started, but the GUI is inaccessible...

Reinstalling package or GUI only gives me "Loading package instructions... Deinstall commands..." - and then sits there forever.

Is there a way to manually uninstall it (I was thinking to backup the config, do a FACTORY RESET, and reload the config (without package information))

If you move the firewall logs to after the traffic graphs, it should also work fine. Must be some variable getting set when it shouldn't.

I added a bit of input validation to prevent that invalid choice from being made.

We need a lot more detail.

For instance:

What is the date on the snapshot? amd64 or i386? Full install or nanobsd? Which version of the squid package? What is the exact error message that happens when the package is installed?

Panic should be fixed on the next new build (which is going now). Should up be in a few hours.

Jim,

Just upgraded to 2.0-BETA4  (amd64) built on Mon Aug 30 05:08:19 UTC 2010
FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE #1: Mon Aug 30 04:56:22 UTC 2010 sullrich@FreeBSD_8.0_pfSense_2.0-AMD64.snaps.pfsense.org:/usr/obj.pfSense/usr/pfSensesrc/src/sys/pfSense.8 amd64

I am happy to report that:

RRD works again Open VPN seems to work again Loadbalancer seems to work (didn't start …)

Yes, it works fine.

Fixed. Thanks.

Have you tried another new snapshot? It works for me on a snapshot from early this AM.

Solved!
I spent the whole weekend trying out everything - 6 new CF-installs, freebsd-crash-course ;) … no success!
Past Midnight, i was near giving up, every single package installed perfectly. What happend?
Finally i found the problem: We have a 3 Mbit-satellite-connection with 700ms-PING and heavy throtteling, so most of the time we only get 64 kbit/s. But we have a Freezone from Midnight until 6.00 am, where Bandwith and download-volume is not limited. The reason why the installation was only succussful after midnight, was definitely the slow internet-connection during the day. Although the package download completed (slow, but complete!) the final install-check failed because of the slow connection. I don´t know how this could be, but i am sure, that this was the reason.
Have a nice week, greetings from  the the ecovillage of sieben linden,

Sascha

p.s.: now i have squid/squidguard and freeradius running well on 2.0 on an alix-board with 8gb SLC-CF-Card. I will see how long the CF-Card will run, some experts told me, the new CF-slc-cards should run for many years. Backup, wait and see :)

Thanks, i will check tonight :)

2.0-BETA4  (i386) built on Fri Aug 27 23:40:39 EDT 2010 Snapshot fixed all graphs!!!
Thanks devs!

Ok - Now I have been playing around with the traffic shaper for a while but I am still having a hard time understanding it.

Let's say for simplicity sake that I have to machines A and B

wan(adslmodem)->pfsense->lan(switch)->A & B

B: is downloading a huge ISO file over http
A: is also downloading a few small files over http now and then.

If I want A to be 'responsive' I would need to be limiting B to for example 20% bandwidth when A is active.

as far as I understand I would need to make one queue "lopri" and another queue "hipri"
then I need to assign a set of ip's (alias) to the lopri queue and another set of ip's to the hipri queue.

Now I am probably asking for too much but please bare with me , what would a step by step guide look like to achieve this?

Hi Huys,

Thanks for the help.
It worked fine for the last 24hrs.

Yes I am using a ups and the power has not been fluctuating.

Hopefully it was just a minor glitch that has righted itself.

But… That config works great on 1.2.3 I just backed up it and restore on 2.0.

What do you see strange on it?
