    No all of my info is learned, just like everyone else - my point is its sub 100 level info.. If you understand what an IP address is an and a network and what a router is - how do you think you can have the same network on 2 different interfaces and route between them.. Just like I don't have to tell you not to put your freaking dick in a shredder.. Did you read a doc that told you not to do that - or is is common sense ;) Or that when you order a "coffee" that its going to be freaking hot.. JFC!! If you are to the point that you have figured out that you want to run your own router distro you should understand that you can not route between 2 networks that are the same.. I am more than happy to explain basic info to you - do you want to start at the basics of what an IP is.. My point was that anyone that has gotten to the level that they have want to run their own routing distro should know these basics - shouldn't have to be spelled out in a FAQ that you can not route between 2 networks that are the same ;) When you get to kindergarten they expect you to know some basics.. Same should go for when you attempt to download a routing distro and route and firewall with it.. You should know what a firewall does, and what a router does - etc.. They expect you to know your ABCs when you get to kindergarten ;) Do we need to teach you that B is after A?

    @stephenw10 said in Do not upgrade to Pfsense 2.4.4_1 Firewall rules with aliases are not processed: Hmm, interesting. What's special about that then. Some odd character in there maybe that would be disallowed now but passed input validation years ago when it was added? If you want to open a ticket and send us a status_output file I can look through it. https://go.netgate.com Steve done

    How did you apply the patch? It should not be possible to apply it to 2.4.4p3 as it's already present. If you were able to then your install is in some odd state. Steve

    @jimp said in Upgrading from 2.4.3 to 2.4.4 new error in logs: What packages do you have running? Are there a lot of clients hitting services on the firewall itself? That is probably referring to a UNIX socket, not a TCP socket, so the tunable probably won't help. I did a grep against netstat and I could not find the pcb. The pcb is consistent upon each boot up: Jul 9 23:54:45 kernel sonewconn: pcb 0xfffff8003f322570: Listen queue overflow: 8 already in queue awaiting acceptance (1 occurrences) Jul 9 23:52:45 kernel sonewconn: pcb 0xfffff8003f322570: Listen queue overflow: 8 already in queue awaiting acceptance (1 occurrences) Jul 9 23:48:15 kernel sonewconn: pcb 0xfffff8003f322570: Listen queue overflow: 8 already in queue awaiting acceptance (4 occurrences) Jul 9 23:47:15 kernel sonewconn: pcb 0xfffff8003f322570: Listen queue overflow: 8 already in queue awaiting acceptance (2 occurrences) I have the following packages: acme Avahi bandwidthd iftop nut Open-VM-Tools openvpn-client-export RRS_Summary siproxd

    @stephenw10 said in Installing pfSense on Google Cloud Platform: I have a 2GB drive on the VM I use there. There is still some tiny storage charge. Steve Thanks Steve for chiming in...I have been reading up...seems that the 100GB for $20/year appear to be a good deal. It would be extremely cool for pfSense to demo this in a hangout session.

    @KOM I'm inclined to accept, that he is talking about a cluster setup maybe and the device does not have direct internet but only via its cluster member/master or some other router so that it doesn't has active internet when not on duty?

    Static IPs are very rare for PPPoE. Even more rare are links with no gateway specified. If you need to use a custom mpd config though a conf file in /conf will be used in preference the generated one in /var/etc as you found. Steve

    @bmeeks Made contact and opened a ticket. Thanks to the forum. In the end went nuclear and re-imaged device. Looked like the file system was off some how during reboot. All done. Will watch for hardware issue. But think this may be an isolated case. Cheers.

    @CompProbSolv said in Can't change WAN Config Type (invalid IP.. PPPoE Password...): As it sits, it's still on DHCP and "admin" appears in the "reject leases from" field. I've looked at the config.xml file and find the line: <dhcprejectfrom></dhcprejectfrom> I expected to find "admin" in the middle of that. We had sth. quite like that on another topic. Problem was the users browser and saved credentials that somehow always got auto-inserted when he visited the WAN interface. Seems like a Chrome (not Chromium/Firefox/Opera/etc.) specific problem with its password manager running haywire on fields that have nothing to do with passwords.

    That did it. Up and running with ZFS. That installer is really confusing. Many thanks.
