    It is a glitch that hasn't been addressed yet.  http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,40428.0.html  I have also had that problem on the re-syncing of the packages.  What you end up having to do is "clear the package install bit" under backup/restore.  Then manually reinstall each of the packages after recovering your setup without the package information attached in the xml file. 1. Clear package bit 2. backup configuration (omitting package info) 3. reinstall packages

    Yes. Only difference is size. That is covered in the doc wiki, as it's an FAQ.

    Blocking BT is hard, because the protocol uses evasive maneuverer to bypass blocking systems. Even having a L7 rules won't block the BT completely. Let say that your users are not able to uPnP and can't setup a port forward, so they can't receive inbound connections, this will only slow them down in the beginning, because they will initiate themselves the connections. Even if they setup their clients to use a specific port let say 443, in the majority of the clients this is the listening port, uTorrent (not naming any there) will use a high port to initiate a connection, so you can't control this port, this will be a new port for each connection… Adding that they will probably enforce encryption so L7 can't do nothing about this traffic either. Then they will connect to other peers that have their listening ports in common ports like 1723 (pptp) 443 (https), not only this will bypass your router, but your QoS rules will prioritize this traffic... I control my own network at home and wanted to put BT in the P2P queue, I had to create a virtual ip address on my Windows and bind uTorrent to that IP address and shape this ip address completely instean of using ports.

    Sorry for late reply … That makes a lot of sense considering the specs of the Mikrotik stuff. Many of my own hours have been taken up trying to push a square peg into a round hole ! Primary reason for asking was the cost of the hardware platform, a 5 port gigabit Routerboard 750G or GL runs to around £50 in UK. The current hardware platform I'm running pfsense on Jetway Atom MB with 5 gigabit ports is more like £175. My experimentation with the Mikrotik RouterOS on PC platform, I found it difficult to use, since I'm more of a windows hacker than command line. Pfsense on the other hand is very well laid out and easy to do what I wanted, multi-wan attached to single private lan. Anyway, I'm happy with what I have it works well, and was a lot cheaper than the alternative Draytek Multi-Wan solution that I was looking at.

    Yes, that works fine. After you restore it will prompt you to reassign the network interfaces, once you save/apply it will reboot with the restored settings.

    No. pfSense is a complete system, not a package.

    Yes, this is what i was looking for: there is a config.xml file i can export. Perfect, thank you. BTW, how to "flush" the firewall by command line, just using pf command ?

    You can backup your config and import it into 2.0. You should be able to upgrade from the GUI. A common source of problems with this is non-standard characters in the config.xml file, probably worth reading through it to check first. The ISO you linked to is the official RC3 release however it's a a bit old now. Newer snapshots are here: http://snapshots.pfsense.org/FreeBSD_RELENG_8_1/i386/pfSense_RELENG_2_0/livecd_installer/?C=M;O=D Steve

    I was about to say what wallabybob is saying… I ran into some issues with my Atom boxes in terms of which RAID mode to choose, how to handle failures, etc... and in my experimentation, I am pretty sure I ran into the same error as you... mostly, in the case of when I had to drives RAIDed usign the built in RAID functionality (either Intel or ADaptec, in my case just the RAID feature built into the BIOS, not a hardware raid), then switched that functionality off to plain old IDE functionality (I'm using SATA drives). It appeared that pfSense just locked up mid boot... looks like it was looking for RAID controller drivers to initialize. It would just sit there mid boot. This is why, I posted a question regarding this matter and what i was doing wrong... the overall response was to use the built-in OS based RAID features... since I could drop the drive into another box and it should still boot... This is what I am doing now for production environments. It was also enough of a convincing issues to do the same thing on my Asterisk box. Hope this helps.

    Yes more ram is the reason most people switch to 64bit but I think 4GB is the limit on an Atom board anyway. Here are some benchmarks: http://www.tuxradar.com/content/ubuntu-904-32-bit-vs-64-bit-benchmarks It's Linux but I imagine the results would be similar for FreeBSD. They make the interesting point that a lot of 32bit code is compiled for i386 where as anything compiled for 64bit is at least i686 or newer so can use all the newer instructions. Steve
