I loaded up the Packetfence ZEN 3.2 appliance today and saw two bugs so far in 
the process. I'm attempting to setup the appliance in the default "inline" mode.

The first bug is that the default category for self registered guests is 
"guest" and the category is not defined. This will result in a logged error in 
packetfence.log. The administrator has to go to the category and manually add 
the "guest" category. It would be a good idea to have this category defined by 
default along with the "default" category. 

The second bug stops a self registered guest from being able to complete the 
email registration confirmation. They will hit the "input-internal-inline-if" 
firewall chain and the default rule stops them from being able to hit 80 or 443 
on the packetfence server. To work around this issue the following two lines 
need to be commented out in the iptables.conf file in the 
"input-internal-inline-if" section:

-A input-internal-inline-if --protocol tcp --match tcp --dport 80  --match mark 
--mark 0x1 --jump DROP
-A input-internal-inline-if --protocol tcp --match tcp --dport 443 --match mark 
--mark 0x1 --jump DROP
