Pkg.pfsense.org has no A DNS record
-
I've installed PfSense 2.4.2 amd64 and after some preparations I've decided to install some additional packages, but every time I try I see "Unable to retrieve package information".
Already tried "pkg update -f" - no luck.
After reading this forum I've decided to ping pkg.pfsense.org and no one DNS can resolv it to IP.HELP!! HELP!! HELP!!

That is not the problem. pkg.pfsense.org uses a SRV record.
$ dig +short _https._tcp.pkg.pfsense.org SRV
10 10 443 files00.netgate.com.
10 10 443 files01.netgate.com.Really should put a CNAME on pkg.pfsense.org that resolves to there-is-no-a-record-it-uses-srv-records.netgate.com.
What is the Branch set to in System > Update? If it is anything other than Latest stable version (2.4.x) change it to that and try again.
