Hi sullrich

I've just issued:
fetch -q -o - http://www.pfsense.com/~sullrich/tools/cvs_sync.sh | sh

and got:

Somethings wrong?

hoba

You can cancel your upgrade for now. We found some remaining issues with the new dhclient (some things still have to be changed due to different syntax). It's working on reboot though. We'll test some more things later and post when we have a new version to try.

fireseller

okey. Just rebooted. Everything works as before…

sullrich

Everything should be working. We really need ppl to test Optional WAN + DHCP more than anything at this point. We are using the same code for dhclient as m0n0 1.3b1 now so I think it is correct.

fireseller

Have you made an update to the cvs?

sullrich

Yes, rerun the command I mentioned prior.

the new dhclient is working great !
but i have found small bug, under Interfaces my wan says DHCP : down
like this:
–-----------------------
WAN interface (rl0)
Status up
DHCP down
MAC address 00:0a:cd:11:ef:fa
Media 100baseTX <full-duplex>
In/out packets 88231/110810 (21.17 MB/32.31 MB)
In/out errors 0/0
Collisions 0

keep up the good work !</full-duplex>

i just noticed a very good thing, it looks like with the new dhclient, the OpenVPN problem with "address in use" issue is fixed ! at least on my pfsense !

Yeah, we are aware of this issue. Should be fixed rather soon. Just keep running that command every 12 hours or so and you will have the latest code. But don't run the command unattended (from cron).

Just tried to fetch the newest cvs several times but always got stuck with:

fetch -q -o - http://www.pfsense.com/~sullrich/tools/cvs_sync.sh | sh

Syncing with pfSense.com

Updating collection pfSenseHEAD/cvs
Rsync CVSROOT/history
Edit pfSense/etc/inc/service-utils.inc,v
Create pfSense/usr/local/bin/php,v

Any advice?

sullrich

Your being impatient. Let it go… It is still processing php which is every php change ever and is quite large.

fireseller

Ups, sorry bout that. I watched it for about 10 mins ;) Just starting up again.

Thanks alot.

sullrich

Please run the command again. All known issues hopefully are solved.

sullrich

NOTE: you WILL need to reboot afterwards.

Please run again, I just fixed a few more bugs.

dlawley

Yea… my sense box seems pretty happy again.. thank you sir...

sullrich

Good. Others please test. A new snapshot will be uploaded in a couple hours.

fireseller

running great now for around 1 day!

Thanks a lot for the great work!

sullrich

Awesome! Anyone else?

Selective

Works great ! I think you hit the spot ! ;D

Great! That's 3-4 people that is now fixed. FreeBSD REALLY needs to take a look at their dhclient. It's obvious that it's subpar to ISC's.

Anyone else?

Merry Xmas and happy holidays!
