Cron update disconnects internet access and VPN?
-
Hello,
I'm running openvpn client on my pfSense and noticed that:
- everytime pfBlocker runs daily update
- vpn connection stops working
- interfaces NOT using vpn also lose access to internet
- restarting openvpn service fixes all the issues (until the next update)
Seems like the openvpn service doesn't actually go down but DNS resolving no longer works.
Any ideas? -
Check to see if the your VPN IPs are in a Feed and being blocked. Review the Alerts Tab.
You can also try without the "State Killing" feature. Any IPs removed will also show in the pfblockerng.log -

Thank you for the answer BBcan17. I found VPN IP (xx.xx.xx.0/24) in 2 feeds. One was my own so that's easily removed. Second one is in "/var/db/aliastables/pfB_Europe_v4.txt".
I guess the best way would be to add that that address to whitelist, correct? With 'Permit Outbound'?

Yes make a Permit Outbound Alias and add the IPs to the customlist and ensure that this Permit rule is above the other block rules.
