      nope not running

      EDIT:I accessed pfsense in ssh and when I try to launch ip guard it says this:

      /libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libpcap.so.1" not found, required by "ipguard"

          2.0.1-RELEASE (i386)
          i fixed this issue by installing snort, which installed the missing dependencies but now i've got another problem
          in /var/log/ipguard_fxp0.log i get:
          error pcap_open_live(): fxp0: No such device exists (BIOCSETIF failed: Device not configured)

            I've tested this package without snort without issues, I'll try it again on virtual lab.

              Hey there guys,

              Here's the problem I'm running into and I'm hoping ipguard can turn the trick….

              I have a wifi client who for whatever reason is always trying to set a static IP that conflicts with an ip address in my static range, which causes temporary problems from time to time.

              I'd like to make sure that these addresses are not in conflict in situations like this.  Since my static devices are all known and well documented, would the correct approach be to enter them all in ipguard, thereby (hopefully, I think?) ensuring that no other mac address can inadvertently obtain access to my LAN (wifi) using a reserved, static ip?

              ???

                Sure, ipguard can help.

                Did you tried static mapping on pfSense dhcp+ Deny unknown clients?

                  No, and here's why:  I run a WISP and I don't want to deny unknown clients.  They can sign up online thru the captive portal and that's $$  ;D

                  However, I did try mapping it to an IP address, but pfSense tells me that I can't do that inside of the dynamic IP range…..  which seems silly, actually.

                    Dear marcelloc,

                    i did download the ipguard last week and installed it on my pfsense 2.0.1 (amd64)
                    however, the services didnt run even i tried to start it manually
                    then a few days later i remove it back because i thought there was an error while it was installed
                    somehow, i cant find it again from the "packages" list, did you remove it?
                    how can i use this good features? im ran a wisp as well and i hope that i dont need to deny unknown clients  ;)
                    waiting for your kind reply

                    thanks

                      cleancodex,

                      check on installed packages tab, I did not removed the service.

                      There is a depedencie that is not included on this package yet.

                      you need to install libcap first. You can do this using pkg_add from freebsd repo or installing snort package before ipguard.

                      I'll try to fix it as soon as possible.

                                  try just lippcap if it works, I'll push a fix to install process on 2.0.x.

                                        about the libipcap: its there on 2.0.x: /lib/libpcap.so.7
                                        I have linked /lib/libpcap.so.7 to /lib/libpcap.so.1 and the binary from the v0.1 package is happy.
                                        so, you can either create the link when you install the package or compile the bin to use /lib/libpcap.so.7

                                        there are some issues with the webgui: sorting (moving things up or down) is not permanent and there are empty entries shown for previously deleted mac/ip address sets.
                                        otherwise, nice package! I hope it's still being worked on. :)

                                          two more things I would like to suggest:

                                          1. drop root privileges (add '-s nobody' to the startup parameters).
                                          2. don't use '-u 300', instead send SIGHUP to the process to reload the config when the user clicks save.

                                          We use the mighty pf, we cannot be fooled.
