      I was advised to post this to the package wish list (hopefully I am in the right place):

      About a decade ago there was an application written for Linux called peep. It took processes and put sound to them so that you didn't have to load/view a monitoring application to ascertain the state of your network devices, such as a firewall.
      Has anyone given any thought to creating a package for pfsense to utilize this application?

      I am new to this forum. I searched on the subject and hand and came up empty so I decided to start a new topic.
      If I have opened a discussion that already has a thread, I apologize.
      If I am opening this subject in the wrong context, again I apologize.
      Please advise.

        I second that!!

        @ber1teguh:

        I would like to see reporting as one of the main features. This should be able to generate reports on any aspect of pfsense as well as scheduling and send the reports by email automatically.
        I know there is a mailreport package and it's a good one. But good can always be better. For example, mailreport can send you email report contains rrd graphs only, there is no way to customized the email body itself. Even the rrd graphs are only attached to the email and not embedded in the body.
        I would like to be able to create custom mail report with my own signatures if that's possible.

          Hello Everyone!

          Can we (or do we already) have a package to log URL History of all users/IPs? I need it very badly.

          Thank you,

          Rahul..

            Yes,

            squid proxy + lightsquid.

            But you must configure proxy settings on client browsers to force all urls including https going to squid.

            this tutorial shows 3 options on how to setup automatic detect proxy settings.

              Thanks for your reply.

              I know about squid, but that'll proxy all of the requests. While I want to use Public IP on LAN side & advertise user's real IP to the internet (fully transparent). That is (i think) not possible with squid package?

                if possible only in transparente mode, so no https support for it.

                      i'd like to see a different reporting system for squid,  one which could email reports daily,  maybe something like SARG..

                      the ones available don't have manager appeal.  8)

                      -g

                              would love to see package communicate to COM port, and send characters, mainly could be used in embedded devices for serial-display LCDs…

                                  I'm voting for frox - ftp proxy server. This small package exist for FreeBSD but it's not starting automatically when added with pkg_add.

                                  This is a better proxy for ftp connections than squid with all ports included in CONNECT method.

                                  Best regards

                                    You need to include .sh in frox startup script name at /usr/local/etc/rc.d and also edit the file changing checks on rc.conf from YES to NO.

                                      FreeRADIUS 2, updated to a PBI, since the old package is now blocked even though I know I can make it work  >:(

                                        Scratch that there's a PBI now, just after I got it working without it LOL. I'll test next week.

                                          This may not be the ideal place for this posting, but felt it was the most relevant sub-forum to post this, please move if I was incorrect.

                                          I would like to see the ability to easily roll back packages. That way users can avoid the impact of bad updates, such as what has been going on since at least the 12th for the snort package, there maybe others but this the only that has greatly effected my install. I am setting up a new pfsense install to show my bosses and to try and sell them on a subscription. Yet I can not even build the system they want due to snort being broken.

                                          I honestly do not get why there is no method or easy ability for one to roll back a released package. What is the logic behind this? For those coming into the product at a "bad" time due to package issues this would help alleviate the sour taste that comes after finding out multiple pushes of the same package have not worked, each push with its own set of issues.

                                          I feel this a great product and its abilities are greater than other offerings, but this is major thing to me and have seen that many others feel the same way. I personally can not in good faith just recommenced something that I will have to be responsible for that does not at least have the ability to rollback a package until "bugs/breakages" are worked out fully on a released package.

                                            You can create o local packages repo for your company and sync it with oficial repo only after you test new updates on a non production machine.
