      Is there a way to control how often a Firewall Alias URL is refreshed/updated?

        I think they're only updated once per day and there is no way to control it.

          Use url table alias instead if you want the alias to be updated.

          Don't quote me on this but I think url alias is a one time thing when saved.

            [2.2.6-RELEASE][admin@pfsense.bhf.net]/root: ps ax | grep 'url'
            42622  -  Is       0:00.00 /usr/local/bin/minicron 86400 /var/run/update_alias_url_data.pid /usr/local/sbin/fcgicli -f /etc/rc.update_alias_url_data
            42800  -  I        0:00.00 minicron: helper /usr/local/sbin/fcgicli -f /etc/rc.update_alias_url_data  (minicron)
            85776  0  S+       0:00.00 grep url
            

            86400 = one a day for me.

            It's set up from config.xml - and put here /etc/crontab …... (I guess).

            No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
            Edit : and where are the logs ??
