That worked ok for me though it took a very long time in Nano.

I think VIA Padlock as a selectable option was removed from 2.2 because it actually can't be turned off, the CPU automatically uses it when crypto tasks are to be done. You can see that VIA Padlock is present on the dashboard.
I've read this somewhere in this forum some weeks ago.

As for the mbmon thing I can't test right now, I'll have a look into this next week.

Just write pfSense Nano onto a CF card and boot that. ;D

hi there
is anyone also experiencing troubles after update to 2.2.1? On my igel machines i dont get internet connection after reboot. i use them to tunnel to a pay ovpn service but now i have to restart always manually the ovpn client to get it work. there is no error message in the logs. the only suspicous entry is "device busy".
best regards
steve

Mine works well, but I don't use OpenVPN anymore with them, so I can't reproduce your scenario.

Pfsense 2.2.2 is running great, I bought a PATA SSD (KingSpec KDM-44VS.2-004GMS) off eBay that has the 44 pins and now the box is very responsible. Looking to upgrade to 1GB of RAM though.

Would anyone happen to still have the BIOS V:5.07.1B-091208 file? The links to mediafire no longer works and I can't find it anywhere else. I have a Neoware P680 with BIOS V:5.05 that I wanted to update.

Thanks

Robi,

Could you please add a bit more info on how the get the mbmon utility running on the 4210? I have installed the latest version of xmbmon (205.14) from here http://pkg.freebsd.org/freebsd:10:x86:64/latest/All/ and it successfully runs at the command line. The problem I am having I think is modifying functions.inc.php file. I followed your example that you gave earlier in this thread and it seemed to work, but when I rebooted and tried to enter the web interface, it hung at the login screen. i restored from another functions.inc.php file and rebooted and I could then log in, but of course without the temperature.

Any help you could provide.

Here is the code I inserted:

function has_temp() {
	return true;
}

function get_hwtype() {
	return;
}

function get_mbuf($percent=false) {
	$mbufs_output=trim(`/usr/bin/netstat -mb | /usr/bin/grep "mbuf clusters in use" | /usr/bin/awk '{ print $1 }'`);
	list( $mbufs_current, $mbufs_cache, $mbufs_total, $mbufs_max ) = explode( "/", $mbufs_output);
	if ($percent)
		if ($mbufs_max > 0)
			return round(($mbufs_total / $mbufs_max) * 100, 0);
		else
			return "NA";
	else
		return "{$mbufs_total}/{$mbufs_max}";
}

function get_temp() {
	$cpu_temp_from_mbmon=`mbmon -I -T 2 -f 1`;

	return $cpu_temp_from_mbmon;
}

Thanks.

Try using the full path to mbmon as netstat is in the function above.

Do you have mbmon loaded though? I have a feeling it's not in the 10.1 ports tree

Sorry but I may have confused you on my code posting.

I posted the entire region from "function has temp… to function get temp" which included function get_mbuf which references the netstat. There were no modifications done on the function get_mbuf area.

To get to the Dashboard, I change the "function has_temp return true" back to "return false" and then comment out the "function get_temp" area. Then the Dashboard loads OK.

The mbmon runs OK from the shell, so I think it is functioning OK. It is only the functions.inc.php that is mucked up I think.

I played around a bit more and here is an error report:

Thanks again for any help.

Playing around some more….I have now got it displaying the temperature on the Dashboard, but it is reporting an error:

Seems to be a syntax error somewhere.

To get the temp to work, I found a missing "" in the line: " $cpu_temp_from_mbmon=mbmon -I -T 2 -c -1`;

lt1360hp

Hmmm… seems to working OK now!

I logged off and then back on and got no errors this time.

Temperature is working now.

Thanks for your help.
