Re: [pfSense Support] Pfsense + Postfix (Relay)

2009-05-20 Thread Paul Mansfield
has anyone considered a transparent redirection of SMTP to a specific
SMTP relay, so that (e.g.) captive portal clients on wifi hotspot can't
send email without some level of control.

this might also solve the OPs problem of providign an smtp relay without
actually doing much.

 Never seen anything like that. Sounds like some sort of bsnmpd or
 FreeBSD problem. If you find a solution, let us know.

Upgrade to 1.2.2 doesn't make any difference. Do you have any suggestion where 
can I look?

There is a bounty thread on the forum for an SMTP proxy (proxsmtp) which
has the ability to perform custom actions upon messages.

http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,14551.0.html

That's a bit better than running a full MTA.

You can do that now with a port forward on any address on LAN for TCP 25.

[pfSense Support] wrong boot device after generic install

2009-05-20 Thread David Burgess
Hi all,

I'm new to pfsense and a real novice with FreeBSD, so go easy on me ;)

I used the live CD of pfsense 1.2.3-RC1 to install to a hard drive for
use in a soekris net5501. When I boot while attached to the serial
console it appears that it can't find the root filesystem, and I'm
left with something like this (reconstructed from dmesg):

Trying to mount root from ufs:/dev/ad10s1a
Trying to mount root from ufs:/dev/ad10s1a


Manual root filesystem specification:
  fstype:device  Mount device using filesystem fstype

   eg. ufs:da0s1a
  ?  List valid disk boot devices
  empty line   Abort manual input

mountroot ufs:ad1s1a
Trying to mount root from ufs:ad1s1a

So after entering the correct device it continues to boot properly. I
guess the device has changed names between install in one machine and
boot in another. After some searching I see that the time to edit
/etc/fstab would have been during the install, but that's water under
the bridge.

I tried editing /etc/fstab at the console with vi but it's telling me
it's a read-only file. I don't want to mess things up too badly, so
I'm wondering where to go from here. Is there a quick fix for this or
am I better off reinstalling and making the change from the installer?

Thanks.

Just edit it with vi and exit with :x! to override the ro.

[pfSense Support] Which pfSense version should I install?

2009-05-20 Thread Jonathan Wanak

Hi everyone,

I'm about to update a remote pfSense installation I last worked on back in 
version 1.0.2.  I'm using a PII desktop with 128MB RAM and 3 NICs.  The box 
runs 2 LANs (public and private), utilizes Captive Portal, connects to the 
Internet through HoughesNet satellite, and uses VPN to provide private network 
access to certain machines on the public side.

My question is:  Assuming it will be a year before I can update this 
installation again, which is the best version to install, version 1.2.2 or 
1.2.3 RC1?  Should I upgrade or perform a fresh install?

Thanks,

Jon Wanak

Upgrade is fine. For what you're doing, version shouldn't really
matter, either/or is fine.
