      You can only run that with pfBlockerNG-devel installed... which you removed as per you previous post :)

            To be safe... Uninstall pfBlockerNG/pfBlockerNG-devel (with keep settings enabled).
            Then upgrade to 2.4.4
            Then reinstall pfBlockerNG/pfBlockerNG-devel

            There have been many fixes in the base pfSense code and in the package, but its always safe to follow those steps...

            But as ALWAYS... have a backup plan...

            Thanks!

                The issue is 2.4.3 is now saying "The system is on a later version than official release. "
                "Status: Running a newer version." in the webgui updater

                    @bbcan177 ads seem to be removed now... In services status pfb_filter is not running. What is that for ? It doesn't want to run.

                      There was a fix last night to add symlinks instead of hard links which caused the service status to not show the running service status.... Its running ok, so its cosmetic for now...

                      Its going to be fixed in the next release v2.2.5_17 which is pending dev review... So should be ready soon...
