FailedI am using a proxy to reach outbound connectivity, however this is not hindering connections on 80 and 443, it passes all. Can anyone suggest a work around to get Snort installed please? Thanks.

The packages on the server are fine, it must be getting corrupted locally or in transit. So either the upstream proxy or something on your own box

Thankyou for checking. Could it be possible that packages are different geographically? Perhaps failing checksum due to coming from a different pkg mirror geographically?
The proxy is in Germany, whilst the pfSense FW is in east coast USA
Additionally, seeing as I have you here, the reason for me using a proxy to update and install packages is due to pfSense (or pkg??) blocking our entire newly acquired /22. We've deployed a few pfSense boxes within this range and none of them can use pkg successfully. Yet I install the same release of pfSense with another IP from one of our other ranges (many to chose from) and they work fine. It's JUST the xx.xx.xx.xx (we actually split it up into 4x /24's but the parent block is a /22.
Are you able to confirm or deny that? It's literally never worked with pkg on pfsense. It's like whoever maintains the centralised access list for pkg servers (or maybe just the pfsense repos??) blcoks the entire range.
Thanks!

If it is a newly allocated address range it might have still been in the bogons list, which gets updated once per month or so. Have you tried it in the last few days?
