Hello,

trying to use dynDNS via ddclient for a .com domain at OVH fails, showing this error in the log:

Code Select Expand

[ovh - ] failed to set new ip xx.xx.xx.xx [400 - {"class":"Client::BadRequest","message":"Zone not found"}]This happens both with native and ddclient backend.

It seems some issues can be caused by not having protocol set to "ovh", which can't be done in the GUI.
Hence I edited /usr/local/etc/ddclient.json directly but this doesn't seem to apply at all.

Does anyone here have dynDNS with a .com at OVH working?

Note that you can run the ddclient in two different mode, selectable on the general settings tab: native and ddclient.

That's just the hint I was looking for! Thank you very much! :-D

Hello,

I was trying to add a domain on netcup to ddclient for dynDNS. However, netcup is not selectable from the menu.
Yet, according to the documentation it should be available: https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/dynamic_dns.html#provider-specific-configuration

After some digging, I came across this nifty python script: https://github.com/opnsense/plugins/blob/master/dns/ddclient/src/opnsense/scripts/ddclient/lib/account/netcup.py

Could this be an issue of missing GUI integration or am I overlooking something obvious?

Layer 8 strikes again (๑﹏๑//) Sorry for sending you on a wild goose chase! It's indeed already in 3.1.1, this is simply a case of GUI integration.

As a test I added

Code Select Expand

HE_DDNS_KEY="the_generated_key" in

Code Select Expand

/var/etc/acme-client/accounts/[...]/account.conf, called acme.sh with

Code Select Expand

--dns 'dns_he_ddns' instead of

Code Select Expand

--dns 'dns_he' and the certificate is created.

Currently, in the GUI username/password are supplied for all domains under "Challenge Type". As this new feature is per-domain, it's probably reasonable to add a checkbox which enables per-domain tokens to be supplied in each certificates' dialogue?

Glad to hear it! :-)

Yes, that's the commit.
I assumed it to be integrated in a way that simply takes the user/password input in ACME's challenge types. But that was overly optimistic to naive. Guess I should finally RTFM the plugin documentation^^

You're absolutely correct, pulling in everything is probably just asking for trouble. Yet, doing individual pulls for non-critical issues creates too much work for projects as big as OPNsense.

I felt somewhat naked without having 2FA activated on my Hurricane Electric account. However, as HE apparently doesn't support global access tokens, that requires ACME.sh to support record-specific API keys - which is safer anyways: https://github.com/acmesh-official/acme.sh/pull/5237

Cheers,
Fabian

PS: Thank you, I'm doing great and hope you are as well! :-)

Thank you both for the insights! So it's either back to waiting for a new release tag or building from git myself.

Hi,

the release cadence of acme.sh can be slow with gaps of up to a year. If I understand the readme correctly, one should use the latest code instead of waiting for new tags anyway:

acme.sh is in constant development, so it's strongly recommended to use the latest code.

Since the last release from April, useful new features such as the DNS API of Hurricane Electric have been added. Would it be possible to update OPNsense with the latest code from github? Thanks!

[Services --> HAProxy --> Settings --> Rules & Checks --> Conditions]

Those who are having issues with "503 Service Unavailable" only for internal access might want to try this:

Part 7 Step 4:
Services --> HAProxy --> Settings --> Rules & Checks --> Conditions
Don't set the condition to "Source IP is local" but select "Source IP matches specified IP" and input the private IP ranges you actually need, e.g. 192.168.0.0/16 10.0.0.0/8 172.16.0.0/12.

This fixed the issue for me.

Also, in case your local servers only accept http connections, make sure to remove the SSL checkmark of the respective "real server" entry. Even though that should be somewhat self-evident :-)

Hi,

are there any plans to simplify captive portal login via QR codes?
From what I could find, a patch was created but never merged. https://github.com/opnsense/core/pull/3388
This would be a great feature.

There was a recent submission which probably fits here...

# opnsense-patch 2a1ccae9

This solves the issue for me, thanks!  :)

I'm seeing the same issues on OPNsense 24.7.4_1-amd64. However, even when setting no limit and selecting all categories via multi-select, no logs are shown. Any idead how to fix this? ???

Well, turns out this one is a combined OPNsense AND layer 8 issue:
https://github.com/opnsense/core/issues/6907
Increasing "Time period" to a higher value allowed Dpinger to come up again.

Hi,
my OPNsense looses internet connection every 3-4h. Restarting the box fixes the issue.

Are you a customer of Vodafone West (former Unitymedia) by any chance?
You could try adding

Code Select Expand

supersede dhcp-server-identifier 255.255.255.255 under Interfaces->Your WAN Interface->DHCP client configuration (Advanced)->Option Modifiers

This worked for me as Vodafone is doing funky stuff with their DHCP (it's hidden behind a relay causing IP renew request going to the wrong server, thus triggering an IP lease timeout).

Hi,

the issue persists in OPNsense 23.7.9.
Unfortunately logging is proving less than helpful. Any idea on how to diagnose this?
As it stands, Multi-WAN failover is broken because of this issue. :(
