            Adding hardware monitoring via RRD graphs would be EXTREMELY handy, temps and HD smart status with some sort of email notification if possible. If nothing else just the RRD graphs.

            I'm interested in this also, starting to throw together a little test package here.

              I agree that this would be an excellent addition.  Monitoring via healthd or another daemon would be excellent.  It won't work with all systems, but for the many systems that are supported it would be very worthwhile.

              There was a thread about this some time ago and some suggestions were made regarding implementation, but it seems that it never got traction:  http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,177.0.html

                My vote goes for an updated version of NUT to v. 2.6.0 or newer!
                There are loads of newly supported devices (my UPS for example) and other reliability issues solved.
                Please! =)

                EDIT: Ohh forgot to mention I'm using  Pfsense 2.0  ;)

                Agreed… an update to the (now very old) NUT package would be very welcome.

                  The FreeBSD port for nut is only at 2.4.1. There are a bunch of patches in it that do not apply to 2.6.x. So If you'd like to see that working, someone would first have to work with the FreeBSD port to get it current, and then the package can be adjusted to use it at that time.

                  It would probably build without those patches, but I'm not sure if it would actually operate correctly once built.

                      Hi there,

                      Before i moved to use pfsense i used smoothwall firewall and there was one feature which might be good also in pfsense. It was some sort of hardware scanner.

                      It just detected your firewall hardware and sended to smoothwalls own website, so they could give an exact information of supported hardware, there was also an additional knowledge but i'm not seeking that.

                      Is there reasonal need or possibility to create this kind of environment to pfsense as package and hardware database. I know that there is possibility to check hardware from freebsd's list, but this could be an extra service

                        If this exists please point me in the right place.  But.

                        I'd like to see a VNC Repeater package that works with the Ultra VNC SC client.  DD-WRT and OpenWRT have added this and I can't really think of a better place for such a thing to exist on my network then the pfSense firewall.  If the package could also manage an easy http download link for the UVNC SC app that'd be awesome but just having the repeater would be very handy for me.

                          Hi,
                          I would like to see VLAN  isolation integrated with Snort , currently using Packetfencehttp://www.packetfence.org/ for this task.
                          But if Snort package or other similar package will include same functionality of VLAN isolation would make the configuration much easier and give complete solution.

                          Cheers

                            Not really sure what you're talking about with vlan isolation, but pfSense is vlan capable and you can run snort on a "vlan-interface".

                            We do what we must, because we can.

                              i know i can run snort on vlan interface , VLAN isolation is when risk detected like worm or virus etc.. related host port switch  is  automatically moved to designated isolated VLAN until depends on procedures could be done automatic or IT  manual intervention risk is removed  same as packetfence doing its simply i meant integrate NAC (network access control) with Pfsense .

                                i'm not sure this is the right place for asking this question.
                                could someone make bandwidthd's description shorter?

                                  Hi All!!

                                  First of all, what a TERRIFIC piece of software pfSense is!!.

                                  I've been using m0n0wall for a couple of years, with very good results, but pfSense is in another level.

                                  In my humble opinnion, I think a nice idea would be adding a console screensaver.

                                  I understand that the module is called green_screensaver.ko, and since Im new to this amazing software, as far as I know it doesn't have it, but I've been wrong before. Please, correct me if this is the case.

                                  Thank you!

                                  Kind Regards

                                  Patricio

                                    I had my pfsense 2.0RC3 updating almost daily, I have squid on it running custom config file, I don't like the lightsquid reports, I install my self sarg which is superior than lightsquid.

                                    At the spanish forum I put there how to setup manually sarg and some screens of my server, this is a good tool for pfsense.

                                      How about squid hit/miss metrics graphs etc?

                                      I believe ipcop uses this software http://sourceforge.net/projects/squid-graph/

                                      Which someone crafty can probably wrap up in to a pfsense package in no time, assuming pfsense includes a perl interpretter.

                                      Although squid does talk snmp, so perhaps use that?

                                          @darklogic:

                                          I would like to see a mail proxy package that would accept all incoming e-mail and scan it for spam, viruses, and grey list it. After it completes the following task, it would then release it to an internal mail server.

                                          Something like the spamD package that dropped off the grid.

                                          These days having proxy filtering I believe is a must have at the gateway level.

                                          A bounty was proposed for proxsmtp, which can do much of this, but the money was withdrawn before any progress could be made.

                                          I'm working on postfix package version 2.0 with many of these implementations.
