      Installed 2.3.3 (pfSense-CE-memstick-2.3.3-DEVELOPMENT-amd64-latest.img)

      Restored from saved config

      Had issues as well. Nothing was working over tinc mesh. Checked the firewall, seen pkg-tinc added

      Copied rules by changing tinc -> pkg-tinc

      After that I've got an error message(s):

      There were error(s) loading the rules: /tmp/rules.debug:197: macro 'pkg' not defined - The line in question reads [197]: pass in quick on $pkg-tinc inet from $GM_Subnets to 172.25.9.0/24 tracker 1454201128 keep state label "USER_RULE: Allow GM Nets"

      Mesh net started working. E.g. all services over VPN started working. While internet stopping.

      I have no rules to redirect public internet via VPN, it goes from LAN -> Wan

      Since I had a little time to go deeper, didn't check the internet thing.

      Here are some screenshots of current (2.3.2_p1) tinc and LAN rules:

      tinc, allow ospf and route via tinc nets:

        It'd be really awesome if someone actually tested what's been requested. https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=124622.msg688654#msg688654

        (Really no idea what you mean by "Copied rules by changing tinc -> pkg-tinc".)

          Do you mean, to remove this rule

          IPv4*  *  *  *  *  *  NONE

          from tinc tab? I don't have this rule for tinc (see the screenshots), just routing to specific, tinc-related private subnets.

          @doktornotor:

          (Really no idea what you mean by "Copied rules by changing tinc -> pkg-tinc".)

          Via "Edit rule" option:

          I can't run 2.3.3-dev now, but in case mentioned, "pkg-tinc" is in selection and listed in the combo box

          Once interface changed, rule is moved into new "pkg-tinc" rules page from old one, "tinc"

            Then ignore that part. How about the rest?

            Then how on earth have you installed the package?!?! What pfSense version are you running?

            This entire thread makes me pull the few remaining hair out.

            :( >:( >:(

              One which works, tinc is installed manually

              Currently, it is 2.3.2-RELEASE-p1 (amd64)

              Tinc is installed this way on 2.3.2 (with sudo package installed beforehand):

              
sudo pkg add http://pkg.freebsd.org/freebsd:10:x86:64/latest/All/tinc-1.0.31.txz
sudo pkg add https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/4512442/pfSense-pkg-tinc-1.0.28.txz

              Than
              1.saved a config file from 2.3.2, tinc & firewals are inside this xml
              2. made a clean install from the USB Flash from pfSense-CE-memstick-2.3.3-DEVELOPMENT-amd64-latest.img (Jan 28th)
              3. Restored configuration from step 1

              After that tinc is fully functional, connected and all mesh is there. While all old rules for "tinc" stayed on old and "pkg-tinc" is empty

              Please, let me know if you need more details

              Thank you

                No, I do not want any details about manual hacks and similar crap. And thanks for ignoring the questions.

                Go figure the bug yourself, guys. Enough time wasted here.  >:(

                    If there is someone who is actually running this on recent 2.3.3 or 2.4 snapshot, chime in and answer these goddamn simple questions:

                    In Interfaces - Assign:

                    • If you create another interface group, and use test for Group Name, and add a firewall rule there, do you get an error like macro 'test' not defined ?
                    • Remove it, create another interface group, and use prefix-test for Group Name and add the same rule there, do you get an error like macro 'prefix' not defined ?

                    If you are using 2.3.2, 2.2.x or whatever else, if you installed the package from third-party repo, another one from Dropbox and stuck it together with a pneumatic hammer and stinky socks, kindly DO NOT bother and abandon this thread.

                    Trying to find out what's the issue with the interface group prefix. Absolutely NOT interested in crap like this.

                    People want a bug properly fixed, instead of idiotic hacks and installing god knows what crap from Dropbox and manually editing config.xml. FFS.  >:( >:( >:(

                      Wow! This is really hacky-hack, pneumatic hammer and stinky socks, for my wife. But to install the package… "sudo apt-get install" is near a minor detail of everyday work of anyone related to networks or such...

                      This was a merely workaround for tinc missing in 2.3, you can check it out in following topic:
                      https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=109843.0

                      And yes, it is a 2-liner with all settings picked up successfully from pre 2.3 pfSense (pkg add ...)

                      Anyway, I'll check next Saturday when be around with a test group. It is quite risky to do a remote experiments. This firewall is behind the provider's NAT and once tinc is cut, there is no other means to reach the net.

                      As well as wiping out all tinc-related config section (Tinc settings and firewall related entries). Will make sure it is all gone in the config backup xml file. So bug won't appear after the "by the holy book" way

                        I've been installing ports for decades like this. Yesterday I did:

                        sudo apt-get install facebook

                        And that is now neatly running on my pfSense 2.6.8. Amazing environment, OS/2.

                        Microsoft should get very afraid.

                        6 and a half billion people know that they are stupid, agressive, lower life forms.

                          Do you think I will try to justify to prove anything for the folks who ready to start class on Debian vs BSD package management to show their smart a**?

                          "Install a package", that's my point, get better/bigger point next time, my boring friend.

                            In tinc tab i have this

                            Hooray. So, when you remove that rule, the error is gone, correct?

                            • If you create another interface group, and use test for Group Name, and add the same rule there, do you get an error like macro 'test' not defined ?
                            • Remove it, create another interface group, and use prefix-test for Group Name and add the same rule there, do you get an error like macro 'prefix' not defined ?

                            ok rebuilt the machine with what you asked for. here are the screen shots, logs & crash report.

                            it installed with an Interface group called pkg-tinc. I set up tinc with another host & put rule to allow tcp/udp. it didnt work. same error as before.

                            so i deleted that group & created a new group called prefix-test & setup the rules. it created a crash report. please see below

                            Also got the error message

                              it installed with an Interface group called pkg-tinc. I set up tinc with another host & put rule to allow tcp/udp. it didnt work. same error as before.
                              so i deleted that group & created a new group called prefix-test & setup the rules. it created a crash report. please see below

                              Also got the error message

                              There were error(s) loading the rules: /tmp/rules.debug:149: macro 'prefix' not defined - The line in question reads [149]: pass in quick on $prefix-test inet from any to any tracker 1485799084 keep state label "USER_RULE"

                              Thank you very much. Finally! Confirms that the issue is not with the package at all. It's the pfSense code in behind that does not handle interface group names like this (just recently made possible on 2.3.3+ in order to reserve pkg- prefix for packages that make use of interface groups, otherwise it wouldn't let you save such things.)

                                Did one more thing. uninstalled tinc. reinstalled again with defaults. a pkg-tinc group is created. & when i try to use rules & start it up i get this error again

                                So went & deleted it. created an interface group called doktornotor  :o 8) & setup rules again

                                No error but no traffic is going thro

                                  Needs to be fixed in pfSense itself, as noted on the bug.

                                  P.S. PR for the rename() quirk here: https://github.com/pfsense/FreeBSD-ports/pull/275 (but that is NOT what's breaking the package).

                                      But to install the package… "sudo apt-get install" is near a minor detail of everyday work of anyone related to networks or such...

                                      I've been installing ports for decades like this. Yesterday I did:

                                      sudo apt-get install facebook

                                      And that is now neatly running on my pfSense 2.6.8. Amazing environment, OS/2.

                                      Microsoft should get very afraid.

                                      Wow, how that smart! Really, can impress 13 y.o. on geeks party.
                                      Do you think I will try to justify to prove anything for the folks who ready to start class on Debian vs BSD package management to show their smart a**?

                                      "Install a package", that's my point, get better/bigger point next time, my boring friend.

                                      Friend is a title I reserve for people I like.

                                      6 and a half billion people know that they are stupid, agressive, lower life forms.
