RE: [pfSense Support] import monowall xml files
No, m0n0wall config files are not compatible with pfSense anymore. Fortunately, unless you have a massively complex configuration, it should be reasonably straightforward to set up your pfSense box to work as your m0n0wall did without too much drama. -Gary -Original Message- From: Jonathan Woodard [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, September 29, 2005 12:40 AM To: support@pfsense.com Subject: [pfSense Support] import monowall xml files i know this has probably been answered in previous posts but i didn't see them. i'm wondering if / how i can move my monowall xml file over to pfsense. i tried to just restore, thinking that i had seen a previous post saying it was ok, it but killed everything and i had to re-install. i would love to try pfsense and most likely will when i have more time. i just really hoped that all my configurations are not lost when moving over. thanks and i apologize if i wasn't detailed enough. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [pfSense Support] import monowall xml files
This used to work, but our config has significantly diverged from m0n0. I suspect if you used a config from where we forked it'd probably work, but assuming m0n0 changed _anything_ in their config file since then, it's unlikely to convert over. I think we're at the point where either someone needs to make it work, or the restore function rejects a m0n0 config. --Bill On 9/29/05, Jonathan Woodard [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: i know this has probably been answered in previous posts but i didn't see them. i'm wondering if / how i can move my monowall xml file over to pfsense. i tried to just restore, thinking that i had seen a previous post saying it was ok, it but killed everything and i had to re-install. i would love to try pfsense and most likely will when i have more time. i just really hoped that all my configurations are not lost when moving over. thanks and i apologize if i wasn't detailed enough. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [pfSense Support] import monowall xml files
Yeah, I've been thinking about this for a bit and I'm starting to think we should just reject m0n0wall files. We've divulged from their codebase enough to warrant it, I think.
