Open WEb GUI on existing production pfsense firewall

root@gateway:~ # grep listen /var/etc/nginx-webConfigurator.conf
grep: /var/etc/nginx-webConfigurator.conf: No such file or directory

/var/etc doesn’t exist on any of the three servers.

I tried to find this elsewhere, but it doesn’t appear to exist:

root@gateway:~ # find / -name 'nginx*'
/usr/ports/mail/sympa/files/nginx.sample.in
/usr/ports/www/nginx
/usr/ports/www/nginx/files/nginx.in
/usr/ports/www/nginx-full
/usr/ports/www/tengine/files/nginx.in
/usr/ports/www/nginx-devel
/usr/ports/www/nginx-devel/files/nginx.in
/usr/ports/www/bigbluebutton/files/nginx.conf-dist.in
/usr/ports/www/nginx-lite
/usr/ports/www/nginx-naxsi

I'm getting the feeling that you're running an ancient version of pfSense...

What version are you running now?

jimp

Are you sure that's even pfSense? It may be a generic FreeBSD system. A pfSense installation would not have a copy of /usr/ports on it.

[root@sdns ~]# uname -mrs
FreeBSD 10.1-RELEASE i386

uname -mrs

That isn't particularly helpful. Try:

cat /etc/version

jimp

The prompt doesn't look like a pfSense prompt. That doesn't tell us much otherwise, though. I'm still thinking it's not pfSense. What does uname -a show? It should mention pfSense somewhere in the output if it's pfSense.

If that was pfSense that would place it around 2.2.x released in 2015 or so. There should still be some files under /etc/ from pfSense if it is that.

What about this?

# cat /etc/version

Or this:

# ls -l /etc/inc/

If it is a pure FreeBSD box then you just need to dig through /etc to find what you want.

Those don't look like pfSense kernels. This is from a pfSense system:

FreeBSD 11.2-RELEASE-p6 FreeBSD 11.2-RELEASE-p6 #3 518496b29ae(RELENG_2_4_4): Wed Dec 12 07:41:44 EST 2018 root@buildbot2.nyi.netgate.com:/build/ce-crossbuild-244/obj/amd64/ZfGpH5cd/build/ce-crossbuild-244/pfSense/tmp/FreeBSD-src/sys/pfSense amd64

Notice that it was build by Netgate from a pfSense tree.

@Grimson So I guess PFsense wont be an option on this to access the GUI

jimp

There may not be a GUI on that.

pfSense its its own operating system that happens to be based on FreeBSD.

You appear to have a FreeBSD system that someone manually configured to be a firewall.

pfSense can't help you get any information from that. You might try posting on a FreeBSD forum for help in tracking down the information you need from that system.
