General Discussion / Simple Easy content filter, is it possible?

« on: October 16, 2016, 08:15:17 pm »

Hy, I am trying to put some content filter on my opnsense box but after reading about Transparent Proxy and Proxy cache I see it is a lot more than what I need, all I need is opnsense to block content bases on url.
The list of banned sites on UT1 “web categorization list” looks great.

All I want is to block sites on that list.

Thanks
Paulo

General Discussion / [SOLVED] Captive Portal Voucher with more than 14 days window

« on: September 29, 2016, 03:09:10 am »

Hi,

I am using Captive Portal and I am installing it in a customer that asked for tickets with 30 days authorization window.

It is possible to have such extended window in a single voucher?

By the way, I learnt that the authorization windows starts counting from the first login and runs straight to the end, either the customer use it or not.

Is there a way to have a voucher with, say, 10 hours, but that counts utilization time?
I mean, if the customer uses one hour he still has 9 hours left independently of the intervals between logins?

Thanks
Paulo

General Discussion / Intrusion Detection Rules, should I activate all?

« on: July 17, 2016, 09:53:48 pm »

Hi, I am running OPNSense for about a week now and followed most manual indications for the setup.

OPNsense is working and performing well that far.

I have activated Intrusion Detection according to manual but the manual only instructs to activate the abuse group of rules.

Below on the settings page there are plenty of rules left unchecked and I just cannot find documentation on what to do with them.

What is the criteria to decide if I do need to activate these rule sets?

Thanks

General Discussion / [SOLVED] Cannot send notification mail

« on: July 15, 2016, 11:20:01 pm »

Hi, I am trying to set OPNSense to send email notification.
But when I click TEST SMTP I get the following message on System: Settings: Notifications

opnsense: /system_advanced_notifications.php: Could not send the message to pcborges@yahoo.com -- Error: could not connect to the host "smtp.gmail.com": ??

The OPNSense host is directly connected to the ISP and everything else works fine
I tried to swap the FQDN by the IP and the result was:

opnsense: /system_advanced_notifications.php: Could not send the message to pcborges@yahoo.com -- Error: could not connect to the host "64.233.186.109": ??
