RE: [pfSense Support] Wanted: Tips for a VLAN capable switch (for home use)
A Nortel Baystack 450-24, they are dirt cheap on Ebay ($15-30). I used one for a couple years with no faults. Also the Cisco 2924 and 2950, but those are a bit pricier. _ From: Victor Padro [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, June 09, 2008 0:46 To: support@pfsense.com Subject: Re: [pfSense Support] Wanted: Tips for a VLAN capable switch (for home use) I'm about to buy one myself, cos my old 1900 Catalyst can't handle VLANs properly. Anyone has experienced 3com baseline 2226 switch? I was even thinking of getting the Linksys SLM2008 for its cheap price, any suggestions? P.S. here in mexico I can't find the HP Procurve switches for less than 560 dls. Saludos. Victor.

[pfSense Support] Snort / Squid /imspector startup
Hello..im running pfsense 1.2 release..using it as a firewall / nat. Im also using squid , snort , imspector. What seems to be happening..is when i update the rules for snort OR if i have to stop any of those services for any reason, starting them up is always a pain as usually squid starts up with no prob but snort will say its running and there will be a daemon in the process list but it actually isnt doing anything .. I can usually tell by the amount of memory in use as well as nothing gets logged in the system logs with regard to snort.. i usually have to stop start all the services that i use in hopes that snort will startup work. my question is is there a particular start up order when starting snort / squid ? thank you -- Brent - When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace - Jimi Hendrix - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [pfSense Support] Snort / Squid /imspector startup
Brent, This issue has been covered a few times in the forums with various causes and effects. I recommend you check the forums out for further details. Most problems with snort not blocking or detecting things boil down to not enough memory available to snort and/or the wrong detection heuristic being used. Keep in mind that both squid and snort are VERY memory intensive applications and that if you don't have enough memory to feed the beasts, your results will be disappointing. -Gary Brent wrote: Hello..im running pfsense 1.2 release..using it as a firewall / nat.
