      Hi everyone!

      Hope someone can help me solve my problem. I updated my pfsense box to 2.1 version and the gui for the captive portal page is a bit different from the previous version. So as I was trying to access it I accidentally deleted the zone. I have a complete backup of the configuration but I want to only restore the captive portal configuration. Is it possible and how will I do it?

      Thanks…  :)

        Hi there !

        What about : Diagnostics: Backup/restore - select "Captive Portal" from the "Area" list and select your backup file.
        Hit "Restore configuration".

        pfSense will reboot.
        Done.

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

          Thanks Gertjan…

          My backup was from version 2.0.3. What i did i just extract the mac address for the pass-through clients, create a new zone and manually encode those mac addresses.

          Thanks again
