Hi all,

I'm running beta-1 and found a small issue... I initially brought pfsense up on 192.168.0.254 so that it could co-exist with my previous firewall while I generated all the nat rules and whatnot that I needed. When I was finished, I moved it to 192.168.0.1 after yanking the old firewall out.

Everything seemed to be working fine (after I learned how to read :) ), but then when trying to fetch something by ftp today I was greeted with a timeout on all the machines I tried.

Looking at tcpdump on the lan side, I saw my request going out, and no reply. On the wan side, nothing... Then I remembered that there's a proxy in pfsense (pftpx). When I looked around the shell, I found that the pftpx daemon was running, but not on the right IP:

# ps -auxw|grep ftp
proxy 551 0.0 0.4 1276 884 ?? Ss Sun10PM 0:00.78 /usr/local/sbin/pftpx -c 8021 -g 8021 192.168.0.254

So I killed it and then tried to run it again with the same args, but with a different IP to bind to:

# /usr/local/sbin/pftpx -c 8021 -g 8021 192.168.0.1
pftpx: bind failed: Can't assign requested address

Any ideas on that one?

And regarding not reloading the daemon on an interface IP change, should I file a bug on cvstrac?

Thanks,

Charles
