Can't get to login.microsoft.com

dcihon

I am on the pfsense now.
Let me start off by saying I know little about this system.
How do I know if I have pfBlokerNG?
Turn off the firewall means this.
I have a wired connection that is behind the firewall.
That is when it doesn't work. It just never connects to the site.
When I disconnect the ethernet and go wireless it connects to the site just fine.
Thanks

When you connect to the pfSense webgui it would be shown in the Firewall menu.

Check the firewall logs in Status > System Logs > Firewall tab. Do you see any blocked traffic from your client when you try to access it?

Try to resolve login.microsoft.com from Diagnostics > DNS Lookup. Do you see a real IP?
Can you resolve it directly fro your client behind the firewall?

I don't have pFBlockerBG installed.
I found that out.
The DNS lookup finds several IP addresses for login.microsoft.com
I can not ping or tracert to it.
It does not show up in the firewall as blocked that I can see. Not sure if I am looking at the correct place.
I can not resolve it directly behind the firewall.
What can I try next.

stephenw10

Ok, so pfSense can resolve it. Does it show a reply from all the DNS servers listed there?
I could imagine external server resolve it but localhost (127.0.0.1) does not perhaps?

Check Services > DNS Resolver. Is it enabled? If not check the DNS Forwarder instead.
In whichever is enabled look for host or domain overrides for *.microsoft.com.
Remove them if there are any.

If not then make sure your client is actually using pfSense for DNS.

Steve

dcihon

When I do ipconfig /all it shows 127.0.0.1 for dns
I have turned DNS Resolver on and off. I have turned DNS Forwarder on and off.
None of it seems to make a difference.
I don't see any *.microsoft.com listed anywhere. That doesn't mean it's not there.

How should I have this set up?
Use DNS Resolver or DNS Forwarder or both or none?
Looking for guidance here. I appreciate the help.
I am not opposed to someone taking over my machine and taking a look at this with me if that would help.

What should I do next?

Can you traceroute (or tracert in Windows) to login.microsoft.com? Could be an ISP or backbone issue.

Ok, so the client also resolves it but that cannot reach it.
By default the DNS resolver should be enabled and pfSense will hand it's internal interface IP to client to use for DNS.

Does pfSense also fail when trying to traceroute at every step like that?

If so it's either blocked somewhere upstream or you have a bad route somewhere.
Check Diag > Routes, do you have any subnets defined containing that IP?

Steve

Probably an upstream router that blocks all ICMP requests.
That explains the total absence of replies.

This is what I get when I do a tracert from pfsense.

So notice the 40.126 address... Now notice his routing table...

40.0.0.0/5	link#3	U	2827313	1500	bce1

No shit he can not get there ;)

I take it there is a shit ton of stuff he can not get to - and this is just 1 has noticed.

40.0.0.0 - 47.255.255.255

That is a LOT Of addresses... He thinks are directly attacked to his link#3 ;)

Someone has a typo on their mask would be my guess.

dcihon

So can you give me some help on how to fix this?
Where do I go in pfsense to change it so it doesn't route there or whatever I should do to fix this.

What is your WAN IP / LAN IP ?
WAN is static ? DHCP ?

johnpoz

Looks like maybe someone pulled some IP range out of their you know what and said lets use this..

What network is connected to bce1?

Looks like the default route is on that /29 network on bce0

dcihon

My WAN IP is : 47.47.60.90
There are 2 internet connections at this office .
Lan IP is 192.168.1.60
WAN is static.
DHCP coming from pfsense LAN interface.

WindstreamWANGW WINDSTREAMWAN 40.139.91.17 40.139.91.17

That is not suppose to be a /5 that is for sure ;)

dcihon

It was already here when I got here.
There are 2 ISP's coming in.
I am going to get rid of one of them but I can't yet.
It is running their phone system and I can't get rid of it yet.
It is the 40. address I believe.
I know the 47. ISP is the one I want for Internet traffic.

dcihon

40.139.91.18 address on pfsense with a mask of /5
I changed this to /24 and it fixed the problem.
Not sure if I caused some other problem.
Thanks for everyone's help.
