      Hi Netgate folks,

      The site of https://forum.pfsense.org/ has an expired cert, at 19-Jan-25, so browsers give a block error when accessing this site.
      I know it redirects to https://forum.netgate.com/ - but still, there are many links on the net to this site and your focus is on security - so it will look more professional if you will give this site a new cert. FYI.

            @Wolfgangthegreat said in The cert for forum.pfsense.org has expired months ago:

            https://forum.pfsense.org/

            If used, I get redirected to the new (since 2019 ?) location : https://forum.netgate.com.
            Update your link / shortcut / bookmark ?

            I understand why Netgate still owns the "pfsense.org" domain, but should it be exposed to the public ?

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

              Yes, you should be redirected. But that was failing with the expired cert. There are many, many links to the old URL out there. 😉

                As pfSense.org uses a Let's encrypt cert, I can suggest acme.sh.
                acme.sh is available for everybody, not only pfSense users ^^
                Been using it since day 1 : it's perfect 😊
