Re: [pfSense Support] NAT'ing on an openVPN interface

 Hi
 
 I have an openVPN connection to a VPN server and i have a single IP from
 the server. I need to NAT my local subnet before putting the traffic
 over the VPN.
 
 I'm not so clued up on custom config files but it looks like I can do
 everything that I need to in the advanced NAT gui - except for the fact
 that the VPN interface is not available as an interface to NAT to.
 
 Any suggestions as to how I could achieve this.

can you not simply add routes on the vpn server to the network behind
the client - there's an option for this.

I am continuously getting these:

I really don't need rrdtool. How do I just disable it for now? Is 
this a problem? Seems like it would take up space at the least.


Any insight would be appreciated.

After researching a little further I find a bug 
(http://cvstrac.pfsense.com/tktview?tn=898) that might apply; I DID 
change the name of OPT1 to ATT. I changed it back and while I am still 
getting

kernel: pid # (rrdtool), uid 0: exited on signal 11

there is no longer an accompanying core dump. Does this help? I would 
sure like to turn off this noise in my logs, as I am sure that it is 
eating up memory and slowing performance. Adding more memory is not a 
fix to the underlying problem unless that is what is causing the 
rrdtool to fail.

No offense taken.

You probably don't want to hear that but: could you backup your config
and re-install?

 Hello,
 
 I have seen a number of posts both here and on the M0n0wall 
 list about the older Watchguard Firebox I/II series boxes and 
 the ability to use them.
 Does anyone have any experience on the Watchguard Core 
 X500/X700/X1000 series boxes?  
 
 I am looking for a platform that is a little more powerful 
 than the WRAP/ALIX or Sokeris 5501 systems, but would prefer 
 to stay away from full blown servers.
 
 Thanks for any input!
 
 Andrew
 
 

Well I got no response so I went out and picked a Watchguard X500 up off of
ebay.  I am happy to report that once you crack the thing open there is a
nice little onboard slot for a CF.  Mine had a 64MB card in it which I
quickly swapped out with a freshly imaged M0n0all CF.  I powered it up,
consoled into it, and it saw all 6 adapters.  Have not tried pfsense yet,
but I will be trying that out sometime over the next week or so.  

For those of you out there that prefer certain cards, the 6 ports are
Realtek chips which may be a drawback.  Needless to say, I am happy a the
gamble I took and will probably be putting this box into full time service
fairly soon.

I'm going to remove the CFs from my twin mini-ITXen, and substitute them
with

less problematic (bricks, or broken rules) upgrades.

I just replaced the CF adapter thingy from my mini-ITX box and  
replaced it with one of these, so upgrade are trivial -- just swap CF

 http://www.e-itx.com/ide-cf-adapter-rear-bracket.html

But this still leaves me with vanilla CF without wear levelling algorithms,
so one is prone to get a lot less (like 6 months?) than 3 Mh MTBF than even 
the cheap SSDs have -- assuming you run full pfSense install, and not the
embedded, of course.

 I am in kind of the same boat.  If you can get the Watchguard appliance to
work with pfsense that would be pretty cool, but I bet it will drive up the
cost of the units on Ebay :)I have been looking at the machines on
hacom.net as well.  They have some pretty good candidate machines for
installing pfsense on.

Keep us informed of your efforts.

I’m a couple months off from trying this…
http://www.abmx.com/1u-12inch-deep-mini-server-p-287.html

I’m debating on whether to throw a 4 NIC intel in the PCI slot or try the 3
NIC card they can add (that doesn’t use up the PCI slot either)
It’ll use the re driver (it’s a Realtek RTL8110S) - and in the past I've
stayed away from realtek

To be clear, I am running the live cd version, so there is nothing to 
re-install. Are you saying just reconfigure from scratch? Would this

Ah.
Can't you just try a newer snapshot? (Yours said to be from August)
Just to be sure it isn't fixed already.
I know that the devs don't like to debug problems with months-old  
snapshots


I just checked - I'm running an August 8th snapshot on a WRAP and I  
don't have this problem.
I'm too lazy to update regularly (I've got to dismantle the WRAP  
completely and I don't like to do that too often)
