Hello, all-
I switched yesterday from m0n0wall to pfsense, I'm trying to get a feel for
which will work better for my SOHO environment (ADSL WAN, DMZ in use by my
VOIP gateway, under 12 hosts on my LAN).
Here are some bugs that I noticed. I've tried searching the list archives,
couldn't quickly find solutions or references. I apologize in advance if
they are well known and I just as searching badly (grin).
- I have a 256MB CF card, there is no easy way to increase the size of the
CF partitions from the 100MB root and 1.7M /cf partition in order to use
the space. What are the commands necessary to grow the partitions, and
which ones should I be interested in growing? Or can I create a new
partition and just mount it in the appropriate space?
- I created a Virtual IP using the same IP address as my WAN interface,
trying to get the router to accept (or redirect) ICMP (I want my system
pingable). I failed in doing that.
(1) How do I make my router pingable from the outside world?
(2) In making that change above, I wasn't able to remove the
interface. The error always said that that VIP was in use by a NAT rule. In
order to remove it, I needed to remove all my NAT rules, delete the VIP,
and re-enter all the NAT rules by hand. Painful!
- The drop-down menus are blocked by the SVG viewer on the traffic graph
pages. (using IE 6.0)
- The system logs pages are all blank. Nothing being logged
- Attempting to change the log settings results in: "ERROR: the changes
could not be applied (error code 1).". Some changes, such as "show logs in
reverse entry" are made anyhow, but others such as disabling logging to
disk are NEVER set.
- Setting logging to a syslog server "sticks" in the settings page, but I
never see any logging to my syslog server.
- On various pages (traffic shaping related) there is a place to enter the
interface bandwidth for your WAN, etc. Should we be using the slow part of
the link (the 3Mbit ADSL speed) or the actual interface speed (100Mbit
between my pfsense router and my ADSL modem). Similarly, my DMZ (OPT1) is
10mbit, but I want to treat it like its on the WAN, should I use 10Mbit or
3Mbit? A little explanatory text for settings like these would go a long way.
- I successfully installed a small package yesterday (no room to install
larger packages). I then uninstalled it (spamd). Today I went to install
another small package, and i am finding that all packages fail with
=======================
Downloading package configuration file... failed!
Installation aborted.

And there is error text at the bottom of the page (black on gray, I missed
it at first)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
