pfBlockerNG 3.2.0_4 ?

Installed packages to be UPGRADED:
igmpproxy: 0.3,1 -> 0.3_1,1 [pfSense]
pfSense-upgrade: 1.0_53 -> 1.0_58 [pfSense]

These are 'real' FreeBSD packages that make part of what pfSense is.
True, you won't see them in the classic GUI installed packages list.

and yes, normally, no body will actually 'see' when they are available.
What I do know is that they, eventually, get installed.
When ? Probably when you visit System > Update > Update Settings and/or System > Update > System Update

As soon as I had the possibility to see this list of non-GUI packages, I never had the patience to 'wait and see' if and when they get installed, I just install them from the command line :

pkg upgrade

@gertjan thanks!

@gertjan Hi. Installed the script on my 8200. Tried and worked.
I'm not using email for notifications but pushover.
How do I modify the script to use pushover for it's notification:

notify_via_smtp($msg);

notify_via_pushover($msg); ????

Thx!

notify_via_smtp($msg);

That's me, scripting the selfish way : I only use smtp, so I called that function directly.

notify_via_pushover($msg); ????

looks fine to me.
Look at the last 6 or 8 lines from /etc/inc/notices.inc - you'll get the picture.

notify_all_remote($msg);

would be best, as it tries everything (that is configured).

Got it. Thx!

@manilx I left mine the same as well (smtp) because I use Gmail too.

Thanks for sharing! :-)

I installed the script as indicated (thanks for the very clear tutorial). But I'm not sure if it works on version 23.01.

Because it seems that the message sending function only works in "root". My English was not very good, I'm not sure if it concerns this script too, but in any case I haven't received any message yet that there was a new version of something.

I had my UPS not sending me any message and I stumbled on this topic https://forum.netgate.com/topic/174526/nut-upssched/13?_=1682405924756 and I wonder if there would be the same problems because "not root",

Has anyone tested this script successfully on a 23.01 version? or or should we add the "RUN_AS_USER root" function somewhere?

Thanks for your advice.

EDIT : Now it works, I received an email this morning and an update was seen. Thanks again for this script ;-)
