XMLRPC : Invalid payload, corrected in 2.2.6 but persistant for pfblockerng

[aniodon]

Hello,

when i first set up my failover, i experienced issues with XMLRPC sync, which you corrected on the 2.2.6, and i thank you for this =)  (https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=102135.0)
upgrading solved my issues

I installed today pfblockerng, and it appears this package has the same issue you corrected (invalid payload)

Has someone the time to have a look at this ?

thanks in advance,

We use pfSense version '2.3.2_1' and pfBlockerNG '2.1.1_4', we don't experience this issue, check you're on the latest version.

If you're using a dedicated NIC for XMLRPC (recommended) you should use a cross-over cable and set the speed\duplex to 100base TX with static IPs.

Enter the following settings for pfBlockerNG -> Sync (might be an issue with it using the generic settings):
Enable Sync: Sync to hosts defined below
Protocol: HTTPS
Target IP/Hostname: backup pfSense IP
Target Port: 443
Target Password: your admin password

We had a few problems when we initially built our environment on Broadcom NICs, we now use Intel.

Hope this helps.
