Re: [pfSense Support] Packages with pfSense embedded not an option - very sad

Just unpacked it, installed embedded onto the flash, booted it up and it's up and running. Very nice solution pulling in less than 3Watts without a load. Next step was to setup the packages... surprise, surprise... no packages available for embedded. I'm very sad about this. All I wanted was IDS/Snort and maybe SpamD. Buy a 1 GByte CF, use the extended image (see list archives), change the /etc/platform from embedded to pfSense, change /etc/fstab mount options to noatime, reboot. Install packages etc. Buy a second CF and dump the first image to it as a backup. Alternatively, buy a 2 GByte Trascend 44-pin IDE SSD, and do the same. Anyone have any suggestions besides selling it?

[pfSense Support] php[56399]: /index.php: WARNING! Captive portal has reached maximum ,login capacity
I am pretty sure there is not limit on the maximum number of users that can login into the captive portal. The only thing i can find that this might be referring to is the Maximum Concurrent connections. I don't have this set, so i believe it's at it's default of 4, and that's fine with me, unless I'm told otherwise. So would this error generate if one IP was trying to hit the captive portal more then 4 times but not login? If not what does this error mean. * **Maximum* *concurrent* *connections* - Limit the number of *connections* to the portal itself per client IP. This feature prevents a denial of service from client PCs sending network traffic repeatedly without authenticating or clicking through the splash page.

[pfSense Support] Odd boot behavior
Good afternoon everyone, I'm currently trying to get my old Soekris 4801 running as a router again. I never had a single problem with the thing running m0n0wall, and I figured since development has slowed on m0n0wall i'd give pfSense a chance. I flashed my CF card and when it boots, I just get a bunch of garbled text slowly spitting out. I can reflash my CF card for m0n0wall and it works just great. Any thoughts?

Set your baud rate to 9600.

Set your baud rate to 9600. And then the POST will be garbled, but the boot messages will be correct. By default.the 4801 baud rate is 19,200 (at least mine is/was). You can FIX BOTH problems by going into the 4801's combios setup menu and change the baud rate to 9600--that way you can see the POST messages, followed by the boot messages. Otherwise you literally have to change the baud rate to match a given stage of the boot process. -Karl Fife - To unsubscribe, e-mail: support-unsubscr...@pfsense.com For additional commands, e-mail: support-h...@pfsense.com Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org
