      according to documentation, the native unbound dns service used on pfSense can be complied with DNSCrypt

      https://dnscrypt.org/#dnscrypt-server

      
      Running your own DNSCrypt server
      
      .
      .
      .
      unbound, a validating, recursive, and caching DNS resolver, can also act as a DNSCrypt server when compiled with --enable-dnscrypt.
      
      Refer to DNSCrypt Options section in unbound.conf(5) for configuration options.
      
      Deployment

        i was looking for a package that could be enabled in the GUI, i have no idea how to implement using the instructions you posted (i found that information, yesterday, while looking at their site).

        thank you for sharing.

          The first step is to compile and create unbound package with this feature on a Freebsd 10.3 to replace on you pfSense 2.3.3 testing machine.

          If the works, the next steps are findind the best way to run it(as a proxy + sever, just a proxy, just a server, etc…) and then create gui files that configure these extra steps, blacklist downloads, acls, etc....

          not that easy but not impossible too.

          EDIT: looks like de unbound source does not have the dnscrypt embedded but the wrapper looks like 'simple' to include

            Hi,

            as for arpwatch, is it just a matter of converting current HTML/CSS to Boostrap?

            cheers

              +1 for DNScrypt as an installable under the GUI package manager with a services tab and entry on the services monitoring dashboard window.

                The Xymon client would be nice for monitoring of pfsense. I see posts going back 5 years on the forums but no "official package" has ever been added.

                I went looking today, and I see zabbix is now in the packages, but still no xymon  :'(

                  Something along the lines of smokeping for ISP quality monitoring.

                    The Quality Graph, which offers much the same information as smoke ping, can be found in Status / Monitoring.

                      Huh, I never realized it could be configured.  I thought it was just for CPU.

                      Still, I like to monitor specific IP addresses such as my ISP gateway and VPN targets and compare to generic websites to find problems early.

                          No.
                          This is your firewall, not a hypervisor.
                          However, you can install a virtual pfSense on a hypervisor.

                            Would really love an implementation of either of the following

                            • Freenas
                            • Bacula Server
                            • Simple FTP server for file storage
                            • Samba (with UI)

                            Most of the above are already available in some adhoc way on pfsense (except bacula server and Freenas) , but really appreciate a UI based installation and management.

                            thanks

                            I second this. A FTP Server and Samba in particular. If a store bought consumer router can do it, why not pfsense? Surely it can do it better, more secure, and faster. :)

                              Maybe because pfSense is a more serious contender in the firewall business and not one of the flaky consumer routers you better throw as far as your aching back lets you?

                                  Really? it's been a stellar firewall so far. it will more than happily block things but I have to fight it to allow things. can't even forward port 80 that worked fine on the tp-link it replaced and also worked on a VM behind the main pfsense router. the data usage stats are practically useless without an added package. So far, ddwrt worked better and wasn't so annoying. I might enjoy pfsense more if it wasn't so featureless. All I'm asking is a couple programs to make it a bit more useful on the LAN side. Also, is it too much to ask for some critical software patches around here? I've got 4 vulnerable packages in 2.3.3 and my only hope is to wait for 2.4. whenever that'll be released.  >.>

                                  I'm aware of that. I'm not dumb enough to put samba or ftp on the wan. I just want it for the lan.

                                    If you need the feature and know how to configure it under console/config files, you can enable freebsd repo and install the packages you need.

                                    Also, pfSense has a great GUI framework that you can use to create your own packages with xml files and php script to check selected options and create config files.

                                    What packages from 2.3.3 are vulnerable?
