        If worried about attack vectors you could try making a jail first haven't tried this package yet but https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/PfJailctl_package You could place it in a freebsd jail.

            Any news on this?  I am interested in getting a TS3 server set up on my pfSense box and I'm not sure if these instructions/packages will work on the latest pfSense version.

            ETA:  The instructions in the OP didn't work for me, or maybe I'm doing something wrong.  At the last step where I check the logs, the log directory didn't even exist so I "/usr/local/lib/teamspeak3-server_freebsd-x86/ts3server.sh start" from webGUI cmd and that produced tiny logs with barely any info in them every time I started the script.  What's an easy way to wipe everything I created with these instructions in order to avoid future issues?

              I put the source code on GitHub a year ago. That's also the version I have been using over the last year, no issues so far  :).

              Below some steps you have to take to install the package. I will also request the PFSense maintaincers to pull my package, that would make it much easier for you to install it (just a single click).

              What you should do is:
              1. Setup a private packages server (a simple Apache server would be ok). Some docs are available on this: https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Creating_a_Custom_Package_Repository .
              2. Git clone my GitHub repository (https://github.com/sander1988/pfsense-packages) instead of the offical one.
              3. Install the TeamSpeak 3 package using the PFSense webinterface.
              4. Follow the TeamSpeak 3 wizard to install the server binaries (the latest version is downloaded by the enduser from TeamSpeak, there are no binaries included in my package).
              5. Configure and run the TeamSpeak 3 server using the webinterface. You can find the initial TS3 administrator token in the Teamspeak > Logs tab.
              6. Disable the custom repository and don't install any other package from my repository! All other packages in my version are really outdated. I created a copy of the official repository more than a year ago.

                Hello. Could you please write the more detailed instruction for package teamspeak3 instalation? I tried to install local XMLRPC server and to use teamspeak3 package locally, but there is a warning appeared at my screen - it says that there is no connection with my local server. I tried to solve this problem but i failed.
                I wanted to do it the way you described in your link https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Creating_a_Custom_Package_Repository  , but I can't install apache just because I do not know how to do it. I googled "how to install apache for freebsd" and tried to do it according to instruction but I can't do it at Pfsense

                  Yeah I'm sticking it out until the OP instructions get updated or there is an easier way to load the package.  The web server thing looks a little complicated.
