      I'll pledge $250 for towards the package as well.

      Chancem, not sure how you're starting it back up on boot but I'm doing it like this:

      in /etc/rc.bootup i add

      mwexec("/sbin/ifconfig lo0 up");
      mwexec("/usr/local/etc/rc.d/zerotier onestart > /dev/null");
      mwexec("/bin/sleep 6");

      just before the:

      Code: [Select]
      echo "Loading configuration…";
      parse_config_bootup();
      echo "done.\n";

      I found this somewhere else on this forum so credit goes not to me but to the person who figured this out - ariel I think.

      Don't know if this helps just thought I'd put it out there.

      Thanks for working on this package!

        Thanks! Currently I have added them to excepted Interfaces similar to ovpn or other of these types of interfaces.

        Just wanted to give you guys a demo of my current progress.

            This looks really cool!  I'll kick in another $100.

            (I'm new to the forum.  How do I send in payment?)

              Where can one get and try out this package. If it works well, i'd donate to the package creator. I just haven't used zerotier before but it sounds better than my openvpn setup.

                I compiled the package and tried it out. Still some bugs on defining networks within pfSense but overall, I can ping :) Now I need to read up on OSPF routing and set up some dynamic routing.

                  I am still very interested in this and very happy to keep paying bounties to get it done.

                    I am having troubles getting data to pass when creating networks within the pfSense controller. When connecting to the controller through my.zerotier.com, it seems to work. Might be some ruleset generation issue.

                      Hi,
                      I'd like to support this initiative, count me in for $ 50
                      Is this still actively beeing worked on? Are there any eta's as to when it will be in the main pfsense repository?

                      Thanks!
                      Peter

                        is there a status page or home page for this package?

                          If this can get to production, I'll gladly contribute $50 as well.

                            This is the link if someone is wondering. There appears to be no recent progress.

                              I actually created an issue for this, would be great to get some more people behind it.

                              https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/9238

                              This would be a real game changer IMHO.

                                I will add $50 to this project, even if it would require cli config and installing the package manually.

                                Have installed the PKG, able to join the network and create a interface on pfsense. Only thing not working is traffic / ping.

                                  Is the project still going on?

                                    @impact1560 Its on the roadmap for 2.5.0 right now. Fingers crossed that it makes it.

                                      @bbrendon that's because @coreybrett set the target version to 2.5.0, not because we accepted it for that release.

                                        I too would love to see a ZeroTier package. I'd contribute to the bounty as well if we could get a reliable package.

                                        Update: For now I can easily commit to $50. Might be able to do more depending on when it's done.

                                          @Noebas Did you apply appropriate rules to the zt interface after creating it?
