Re: [pfSense] thermo sensors from motherboard

Hi, you can set thermal sensors under "System > Advanced > Miscellaneous : Thermal Sensors section". For me there is only cpu-temp available there. For notification/mail look at "System > Advanced > Notifications: SMTP E-Mail". I do not use temp-error-notification via email. You have to allow ac

Hi all, while researching the issue that pfSense won't send using our Exchange 2010 Server I found the underlying cause for it. pfSense (our version is 2.1.5-RELEASE, but I guess other versions are also affected) seems to support several Authentication mechanisms for SMTP (at least that's wh

Out of the blue this weekend pfsense went down. After further investigation i've found that in VMWare 4.1 the status of the nics are inverted. The ones that should be connected are disconnected. The ones there had nothing plugged in show connected. If I unplugged the cable is goes to connected

You could also just switch the NICs from the console to make the former outside interface the inside interface and so on. Then you'd be able to access the web GUI. Or in VMWare change the Virtual LANs that the NICs are attached to. Or set a static and manually connect your client PC to the (form

CDBurnerXP (just google it) is decent free CD burning software for Windows. If you're properly burning the ISO as an image and not just dragging and dropping an ISO file onto a data disc and burning it then I don't think it matters what software you use. Windows 7 even includes an extremely simpl

Ok. Admittedly I'm too lazy to read all of that but to throw in my 2 cents this is what i built my pfSense on back in summer of 2012 and I have no regrets. Total cost was just under $200 like 2 and a half years ago. It has no moving parts, low wattage, and I've not had a single issue. Very litt

It's not as easy as plugins into the other lan as their behavior is opposite. If I plug in is says disconnected if I pull the cord it says connected. Very messed up. As for a low cost solution what would you recommend for hardware? What's my cheapest way out? I currently use squid and pf block

HA! well.. its been running non-stop for 2.5 yrs with zero issues so uhh.. 21,900 hours and counting so far. Not sure why you have such bad luck. I've not had a bad SSD yet. In my gaming PC i've got a couple Corsair 128GB SSD's in a software Raid 0 running good for 3 years now. Got a few variou
