      Currently running pfsense 2.4.4-Release-p3.
      System Logs, Routing, DNS resolver logs seem all to work.
      I'm not sure if there is a setting to turn on firewall however I went into the filter rules and enabled logging for a few of the rules. I'm still not getting anything

      I read a few similar posts about this -- both from 2017. Both related to different kernel versions. I don't think I have a mismatched kernel.

      Any suggestions..

      There are no firewall logs. GUI keeps displaying 0 firewall log entries.

        Sorry - rereading my own post
        No firewall logs are present. Seems like every other logging system works. Sorry for confusion.

          That's strange.

          Go to Status > System Logs

          Select Firewall

          Click the tool in the upper right

          Hit the Clear Log button

          See if reinitializing that file helps.

          DO NOT set a source address/port in a port forward or firewall rule unless you KNOW you need it!

            Yea weird - I rebooted pfSense and same result. Reinitialization -- yeah that kicked things into gear. Thanks.
