      Hi,

      Is it possible to configure what should trigger the e-mail notifications at System / Advanced / Notifications ?
      I would for instance like to get a notification if a IPSec tunnel is down.

      Are there even any information on what actually triggers the notification?
      The only notifications I've seen so far is DynDNS IP Address updtes (which is pretty uniteresting, as long as the IP address hasn't changed) and Service Watchdog detected service stopps.

        I saw also also UPS and pfSense booting.

        There is not a checklist with available events. I don't recall that I saw a list with possible events.
        I know a OpenVPN event does not have a notification set up.

        No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
        Edit : and where are the logs ??

          Ah, yes you're right, I've alson seen pfSense boot notifications.

          I think it's great to have the ability to get notification, but it doesn't do much good if you can't specify what events you want to get notified about.

          I know about the mailreport package, and it's great, but it only give you periodic reports, no instant alerts.
