So how does one use the windows version on a config backup??

Hello all I very seldom post on here unless I need to know something so here goes.. Is their a way to move from ISC DHCP to KEA? I would like to know this because of the "NEW" beside KEA is their going to be an automatic move or semi automatic or all manual move to KEA.. THANKS in Advance for any and all info....

I have been trying to update to the latest version of opnsense but I get so far into it and it errors out saying and I quot " pkg-static: cached package clamav-1.2.0_1,1: missing or size mismatch, cannot continue
Consider running 'pkg update -f' "

So how do I do this command 'pkg update -f'

Try a different mirror. The Cloudflare-hosted one does this sometimes.


Cheers,
Franco

Can someone please tell me why it is doing this??

You could setup a local mirror and sync from official?

So how would that work??? I would have to do something at my work. they have fiber internet their.

thank you for that info I will take a look at this when I get more time and post back here...

Is their any way to setup offline updates? My reason for this is I am on satellite internet "not starlink" and I have a limited amount of data and speed and need ot download my system updates else where and install them when I get back.

I still can not get this to work..

I was wondering if thier is a way to update/upgrade OPNSense by the way of a usb key?

You may need to check how he is connecting - Is he on an access point behind the OPNsense box, or, is he connected to the ONT (i.e. the ISP's modem) direct. If the latter he has bypassed the OPNsense restrictions.

he is behind the router. some of his devices are wireless and some wired connected.

I did as instructed but he still has access to net all the time.. Can somone let me know what I'm doing wrong???

So I would very much like to limit his internet usage to a couple of hours at night he has four devices on the network now.

So you want something like a schedule?
From 02:00 to 05:59 full access.
From 06:00 to 01:59 no access.

That is what I need to do....

That is what I need ......... :-* Thanks I will try that..

Subject line say's it al.. I have a stepson that hogs all the internet . I have limited internet now with satellite (only option right now) and I need to be able to use it but can not. So I would very much like to limit his internet usage to a couple of hours at night he has four devices on the network now. Was able to do this on ipfire and ipcop but not on opnsense the other two it was more easier than opnsense. I need to learn opnsense for my work that is one reason I have it installed at my home. I have opnsense 21.1.5 installed so can anyone help me with this???
