You mean if it goes to 100% again?

yes

I am going from memory on the 1.2release Ive been running I admit. It worked so well I havent had to really touch anything.

This option

"Allow DNS server list to be overridden by DHCP/PPP on WAN
If this option is set, pfSense will use DNS servers assigned by a DHCP/PPP server on WAN for its own purposes (including the DNS forwarder). They will not be assigned to DHCP and PPTP VPN clients, though."

agrees with what you posted. Been some long days for me so I missed it during my setups… I dont remember having to enter DNS on the General Setup page before but may have... Sorry to stir things up about it but I figured if it was not working as intended you would want to know...

1.2.1-TESTING-SNAPSHOT
built on Sun Jul 13 23:18:23 EDT 2008

GUI system logs still seems to stop updating intermittently. Reboot to get it to restart.

When this has happened I no longer see "syslogd: kernel boot file is /boot/kernel/kernel" on the system tab when I click "Clear Log".

Definitely, you're not "stirring up anything".

I'm pretty sure this is how it's always worked, and I did verify a few things related to this but not this exactly. Will check into it when I have a chance.

I have a 1.2-RC3 box, I wanna get that up to date. Can I just upgrade it from the web UI? In the past I've had bad experiences with upgrading, well can any one suggest anyway?

Is 1.2-RC3 config file usable with 1.2.1 snapshot?

Nope.

biatche

Nope to what? Both? OK, I assume I need to download the ISO and start over. But, do you actually also mean nope that I cannot 'import' my old RC3 config to this one?

(oh, and if you don't mind saying, is 1.2.1 final gonna be released soon? I saw the known issues page and remaining is now none. I was actually planning on using the latest snapshot but I might wait for the very final to be released)

cmb

You should be able to upgrade 1.2-RC versions with no problem to 1.2.1. The config from older versions is fully compatible with newer versions.

Sorry, I misread that somehow and thought I had read 1.3

chpalmer,

Your version is more than 2 weeks old.

I would recommend you upgrade to the latest since I have seen MANY MANY issue go away over the last 2 weeks.
