      Afraid I don't have Squid or anything related installed, so cannot advise - but, regarding the spam, yeah this needs some serious work. Noone wants this kind of "notifications", and there's literally zero configuration for those. It's just not the System Watchdog package; those system messages are noisy like hell as well when something goes wrong.

        Can any admin perhaps help me fix this? I donated via paypal when that still was here, I bought gold, I know that doesn't entitle me formally to any support, but I'm clueless to why this happens. You've built it, you probably know.

        Example: I go to mobilefun.nl -> site asks me if I'd rather go to mobilefun.se, obviously because it thinks I'm coming in from Sweden.

        Thank you.

          Thanks Dok. Squid was just another example of with any new upgrade comes new problems, I don't think Squid is related to this problem (I turned Squid of and the problem remains).

              I'm sorry to say, but this is still buggy crap ( >:( >:( >:( ).

              Pics:

              • Smartphone is on VLAN40.
              • There is NO RULE telling VLAN40 to go via VPN.
              • Still this bullshit goes via Mullvad VPN.
              • There is NO RULE on LAN either telling it to send traffic through the VPN; still, LAN goes through VPN too.H-E-L-P  P-L-E-A-S-E  ADMINS.

                  "Rock solid", "stable", "the best".

                  Not.

                  So in order to prove more that this is a mess I setup two rules and enabled logging. One to go to www.freenas.org, and the other to go to www.pfsense.org.

                  Now the stupid thing doesn't log anything at all when I go to these sites.

                    I should have spent my paypal donations and gold subscription on beer for myself.

                        And what exactly should it log? You log traffic from LAN net to www.freenas.org and www.pfsense.org. Now, the traffic goes through the Squid %^&#@% – and from there goes somewhere. So, there's no traffic from LAN Net to www.freenas.org or www.pfsense.org.

                            On second thought: suppose Squid would have still been there, in transparent mode, shouldn't it then be still logged?

                            Or is the case this: firewall doesn't bother with anything at all if Squid is installed?

                            Because if that is true then that is a "less optimal design and implementation" "a feature". But if it is not true and if the firewall still monitors that traffic via Squid too, then it can log it too.

                            ???
