      Due to the exit node not working we decided to uninstall the package from package manager. After this, we can no longer find it as an available package to download.

      Is there a command or such we can run to install it instead?
      We have 22.01 version of psense installed.

      It looks like this:

      Do not know if related, but after a reboot, we had an issue where no updates could be downloaded. We had to go and fix the "broken" urls under file editor:
      /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/pfSense.conf

      The following urls in bold were changed

      pfSense-core: {
      url: "/pfSense_plus-v22_01_amd64-core",
      mirror_type: "srv",
      signature_type: "fingerprints",
      fingerprints: "/usr/local/share/pfSense/keys/pkg",
      enabled: yes
      }

      pfSense: {
      url: "/pfSense_plus-v22_01_amd64-pfSense_plus_v22_01",
      mirror_type: "srv",
      signature_type: "fingerprints",
      fingerprints: "/usr/local/share/pfSense/keys/pkg",
      enabled: yes
      }

        Hello,

        Due to the exit node not working we decided
        to uninstall the package from package manager.
        After this, we can no longer find it as an available
        package to download.

        Please go to the command line (webconfig) or connect to the console and open a Shell ( Point 8)

        Set up the following command;

        pkg search pkg-tailscale
        

        You can copy and paste it, it works for fine me on
        pf+ 22.05 with no problems in both sections.
        You should be getting out then something like the following line below;

        pfSense-pkg-Tailscale-0.1.0_1  pfSense package Tailscale
        

        Is there a command or such we can run to install
        it instead?

        First do a search for finding out the exactly package name and then you could try out an install with the command "add"

        add pkg pfSense-pkg-Tailscale-0.1.0_1
        
        or 
        
        add pkg pfSense-pkg-Tailscale-0.1.0_1.pkg
        

        you could also trying out the following command
        alternatively with the full path.

        pkg add https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:12:amd64/latest/All/pfSense-pkg-Tailscale-0.1.0_1
        pkg install -f -y pfSense-pkg-Tailscale-0.1.0_1.pkg
        

        We have 22.01 version of psense installed.

        As stated above I am on ps+ 22.05 and the package
        name and or the version could be another one as
        for your version 22.01, so doing a search before is
        the best option as I see it right. At last you should be
        ensure that the version you are running (22.01) is
        matching or according to the repo for that version.
