hi

how to see the transferred files in imspector?

thanks in advance

It doesn't keep the transfered files. I don't think it would be a good idea anyway. For people will smaller drives on their pfSense box it could easily be filled up and potentially take down the system.

Im not sure what disabling NAT Reflection really entails if it is a horrible security risk or just makes port forwarding/nat more work. ??
Cheers

It's not a security risk, it just puts more load on the pfSense box. The domain name you use to access your virtual sites internally looks up to a public IP. Thus the request goes out to the pfSense box. Enabling NAT reflection allows the pfSense box to redirect the request back into the internal network to the correct host.

If you had split DNS when inside your network the domain name would look up to the internal IP of the server. This would avoid the unnecessary loop to the pfSense box as the request would go directly to the server. When outside your network the domain name would look up to your public IP.

I loaded FreeNAS which is the same thing as M0n0wall and it intalls just fine.

They use version 4 something of FreeBSD vs version 6.

This is more of a FreeBSD issue than a pfSense issue. Try loading FreeBSD and see if it boots. There are high chances it will hang at the same point.

I have no idea then. You might try playing with the BIOS settings.

I meant what PCI card do you have in PCI slot 2? I figure you have an additional NIC card since that board only has one on-board NIC. Normally after it shows pci2: ... it will show the card on that slot. Maybe it is having a problem with whatever card it is.

No error messages or kernel panics? What card do you have in that PCI slot? Trying pulling the card and see if it boots.

Hi, I am actually trying that right this minute!!!

But I cannot get it to work, I am using Hyper Terminal and connecting using COM1 and it makes a connection but all I see on the screen is the blinking underscore, is there anything I am missing? maybe different Baud Rate etc?

The baud rate should be 9600 by default. Try setting Hyper Terminal to that. Once you connect hit enter and see if the console screen menu shows up.

From your post the embedded install worked fine. It just redirects the console to the serial port. You just need to purchase a null modem cable and use a terminal emulator program to see the console. Putty will work for this or you can use the Windows HyperTerminal program.

I never had to edit /etc/ttys to use the com port with NUT (Network UPS Tools). I'm thinking this is an application problem. Might try on a full install of FreeBSD to see if it works. If it doesn't then modify your app. If it does see whats different between it and pfSense.

A hard drive would make me consume a lot more electricity, plus it is way more expensive than a CF card. A regular hard drive will not fit inside the case, I would have to buy a laptop hard drive. that is not an option, sorry. I want squid to regulate access not really for the cache part. 

Well then your own your own as far as getting it all installed and working as packages on embedded installs are not supported. As far as the power consumption if it was that big of a deal you should have gone with a WRAP / ALIX board. I google'd your board and saw reports of it drawing 43 watts vs 5 watts for a ALIX board.

For a cheap W-LAN AP use a Linksys WRT54GL. Works 99% of the time.
You can easily get rid of the housing and put that device in an outdoor housing on a pole somewhere.

Guess everyone has something bad to say about every company. My WRT54G wireless will randomly crap out. I have unplug / plug it in to get it working again. With DD-WRT firmware it does this once every couple of months. Still unacceptable in my opinion.

When you see "The operating system has halted." it is safe to power off the box. However like stated above the file system is mounted read only so even if you pulled the plug when it was running it shouldn't matter.

Not sure why you would want to shut it down remotely unless you have it connected to a power strip that you can remotely turn it back on. Otherwise once its shut down its not going to start back up again.

As I have understood, in the embedded version of PFsense packages are not inclued, I would like to use Squid for example, and that is why I need to do a full install. Has anybody been able to perform a normal full install on this motherboard? and tell me what to do?

Why don't you just use a hard drive and install the full version. Squid will kill a CF card in no time with its cache. You would only need to hook up a cdrom drive for the install process.

rsw686, I can't use vmware since I also have 3 para-virtualized Linux guests. Their performance is outstanding, little processor load (1/20 of that of a HVM) and rock solid.

Gotcha. It really seems like you need two systems to have a rock stable setup. Xen excels with para virtualization and vmware excels with full virtualization. Maybe Xen will fix this issue along with the incompatibilities with Intel VT chips in the later releases.
