It depends as you mentioned it is Alpha software and really both could be an issue. For example right now I'm using 82.4 and I have to reboot for Firewall / Rules changes to take affect. Since I have two firewalls and they fail over seamlessly (well not entirely for some reason it fails over

This sounds like a sweet setup, the failover is one of the big reasons I am looking at this software. When you say "make a change", do you mean a change to the software versions etc. or just simple things like adding rules and such? Should I expect it to break by just using it or are you refe

If you have two firewalls and are going to do failover I'd say go for it. If you only have one you can't make a change and see if it breaks stuff and still recover quickly. If you have two you can simply disable CARP on the malfunctioning firewall until its fixed. Its worked well for me and I

I am new to the list and PfSense, hope you folks don't mind a few newb questions from me over the next few days. The first and most important one is this... I have 8 or 10 web/email type servers to protect at one of our locations. I know that PfSense is an Alpha product and it would be my own

Ah ha! Should have thought of that! It probably shows up at the serial console. Anyway, I am interested in the dual-wan setup. Hopefully, I will have more time playing with it. Thanks for the great work. Bao On Mon, September 12, 2005 1:43 pm, Scott Ullrich wrote: > On 9/12/05, Bao C. Ha <[EMAIL

Hi Scott, I use the OpenBrick-E, but it works on all of hardware, as well as the Lex systems. I use the compact flash image built for the Wrap, but have to replace everything in the /boot/kernel with stuff from the LiveCD to make it works. What is the difference between the LiveCD and Wrap-based

Hello, I have been playing around with pfSense last weekend, trying to make it bootable on the compact flash on our hardware. I have built some images that could be "dding" directly to the compact flash. These images assume the CF to be on the secondary master IDE, /dev/ad2, which is the case for
