      Can I install pfsense as chroot on freeBSD server?

      I have high-end server that I want to set as gateway and firewall. but I want not to format system. ( I already has other aplication on this server and I want nice webUI like pfsence)

        It might work, but:

        a) It isn't supported

        b) Running your gateway and firewall as a virtual host isn't a good choice for security (see the Virtualisation forum)
