Subject: [Snort-users] Assistance Request
Importance: High

I have been deploying a new pfSense machine using the core applications including SNORT.  I have the subscribed VRT 
rules installed, along with OpenAppID and ETOpen.

Today, I was finishing implementation and was unable to get out using LogMeIn and noticed the errors were coming from 
ET.  Then the headaches started when trying to add whitelist information.  Then I uninstalled the ET Rules.  Now, I am 
not convinced the VRT & OpenAppID Rules are working.  I just don't understand the overall rules and such to apply in 
the way they need to be applied.  Completely different from Cisco and SonicWALL.

I need AND am happy to pay someone to do a review of my configuration and confirm I am not missing something.

I am in IT and have been using Cisco & SonicWALL UTMs in the past.  This learning curve is driving me crazy and as 
usual, the definitive answers on the web are subjective.  As usual, I've spent hours and hours on the web researching 
things and basically pulling out my hair.

Please, anyone with real world experience using pfSense 2.2.6, SNORT & SQUID3 (Which I removed today due to some basic 
routing problems that I just could not figure out) please reach out to me, we can work out payment and get these basic 
issues resolved.  If interested, this can also turn into a long term relationship as I really don't want to become a 
pfsense engineer.  I am very capable for general maintenance, but don't need another engineering degree.  LOL.

I am PST Time Zone AND thanks in advance for any response.

Sincerely,

Eric S. Martin
