Development and Code Review / 26.7.5 git tag for src repo

Last post by none - October 03, 2026, 10:37:09 PM

Hello,

I build arm images and the 26.7.5 build failed for src. I got to find out the reason was this:

ofw_bus_destroy_iinfo()

that was introduced in this commit:

https://github.com/opnsense/src/commit/ed5b1f4fb4d2f4c8c13004f7fc7560fb8e6b7864

So now there is no 26.7.5 tag and the build fails complaining about this function. I saw that src tagged 26.7.4 doesn't have this call, so I am trying to build 26.7.5 using src tagged 26.7.4. Will be a 26.7.5 tag or should I expect just 26.7.6?

Thanks

26.7 Series / Re: PPPoE over an unassigned V...

Last post by fanski - October 03, 2026, 09:29:11 PM

Hi,

I have a very similar problem and hope it's ok to reply to this topic, otherwise I can also open a new one.

So when on 26.7.1 my PPPoE config works fine and the connection comes up. I get an IP from the ISP etc and there is no problem as far as I can see.
But if I'm upgrading to 26.7.5 (I also tried to upgrade to 26.7.4 and 26.7.4_1 before multiple times) the PPPoE always fails. The interfaces are up and if I check the Interface Overview/assignments/etc. everything looks the same for me but I don't get a public IP and the status of the WAN interface on the Dashboard is active but "undefined".

I did some research with AI (in fact Claude, ChatGPT and Gemini) and after I tried all the suggested workarounds the AI always comes to the conclusion this must be a bug.
I'm not sure if this is really true because you know AI always sounds pretty sure about everything but isn't always right and after some research I also read a lot about most problems are more config errors than bugs so I guess this is maybe more my problem.

So from the log I can see that the PPPoE just doesn't work, but I'm not sure why. If I do a diff between 26.7.1 log and 26.7.5 log I can see the order of the log messages regarding the WAN interface and PPPoE is a little different but everything happens at the same second. For the AI this is the root cause as the order has to be different and this is a key problem for my config. But as I already mentioned I'm not really sure about this.

Another potential problem according to the AI is that I have 2 10G interfaces for internal traffic and the WAN interface is only a 1G interface. The AI tells me this is a big problem as the 10G interfaces are seen as priority interfaces and the OPNSense tries to connect via those interfaces instead of the 10G which then fails. But I can't see any hint of that in the log files.

I tried to follow the How To Guide about PPPoE over VLAN but it's already 5 years old and I'm not sure if this is still correct after all those years.

Maybe someone can help me, because I now spent so many hours on that problem that I don't know what options are left to solve this issue.

Many thanks in advance.

Is Multicast DNS allowed on the WiFi Bridge ?!

Perhaps disable IGMP Snooping tuneable or something like that ?

Sorry, but I can not even find neither settings

If I connect iPhone to Wifi via Opnsense box own WLAN interface I can not reach BubbleUPnP.

/Just some thoughts...

You got it! memes be praised, it was DNS.

Following your thoughts, I was able to connect with a static ip on my laptop, received a DNS error trying to access any website. So I just deleted both DNS setups and reservations, and rebuilt/re-enabled everything in DNSmasq and it worked! So I clearly fumbled something in the DNS settings on my first... many attempts.

I will figure out how to mark this as Resolved!

Thanks again!

LOL! NICE! ^_^

26.7 Series / Re: Postfix sender rewriting

Last post by nero355 - October 03, 2026, 08:30:18 PM

It doesn't appear that mail is installed in OPNsense by default, at least not on mine. There is nothing in /etc/mail and no sendmail program.

Makes sense I guess and the documentation seems to confirm it : https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/how-tos/mailgateway.html#postfix

But how about adding .conf files

I have done this with Unbound - after reading the documentation. Your mileage may vary for other services, depending on how OPNsense configures them. However, it's best they are managed using an applicable plug-in.

[Edit] Of course, such custom settings wont be included in a back-up.

OPNsense Web GUI for Unbound lets me know there is a configuration which could possibly overwrite settings in the Web GUI.

NICE! :)

I think that kind of configutations made me think that the same rules apply to other software, but that does not seem to be the case.

Now I'm nervous we've been wasting effort - we have several deployed systems where we've customised the rspamd plugin configuration to enable DKIM,as per this post:

https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=20280.msg270642#msg270642

- is there a risk that configuration work will be lost on the next service/firewall restart?

It seems to be supported according to : https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/how-tos/mailgateway.html#rspamd

But to be honest my personal preference would always be this :

While we're comfortable making Postfix work via conf it would seem that shouldn't be using a plugin on the firewall and we should have a separate VM to act as the relay for mail.

Did you add proper firewall rules to the interfaces to permit UPnP?
In addition to the access to the other LAN devices, it's also required pass the UPnP multicasts to the other interface.

I'm in 26.7.5 now and same issue still persist.

If I connect iPhone to Wifi via Opnsense box own WLAN interface I can not reach BubbleUPnP. I know, small issue, I know opnsense is not intended for Wifi, but it shows something is misconfigured in my network. In principle I do not like it :)

Can you please help to define those rules correctly ?

@patrick Aux package mainly holds rust and go compiler packages. You can enable it from the firmware settings (advanced).

@mirek What happens when you run this on the command line?

# pkg upgrade -y pkg; echo $?
