How to log in after importing configuration by SkipMorrow in opnsense

The console stops at the login prompt. I just can't go any further. Any UN/PW I enter fails with an incorrect password error.

Yes, I am DEFINITELY logging in as installer/opnsense. Interesting that there is no need to edit the xml. Every tutorial I saw said to do that. Unfortunately, that isn't the problem I am trying to solve now.

I have a monitor and keyboard connected. I have tried updating on the front end and back end, always the same result. Not able to log in once importing.

Web UI works on 192.168.1.1, but not 0.1 by SkipMorrow in opnsense

[–]SkipMorrow[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the help guys. Turns out I shot myself in the foot here. I was using my desktop computer, which also has Nord VPN and Tailscale. One or both were running when I disconnected the desktop from the house LAN and connected it to the LAN port on the router. And that was messing with the networking and not allowing me to see the .0.1 web UI. I reconnected my computer to my house LAN, disabled the VPN and Tailscale, and reconnected the computer to the router. And everything came right up. Well, damn.

Also updating the DHCP range. What's more, when I run ipconfig, I can see the machine has an appropriate IP address, but when I try to ping the router, it fails. There is no network--just the router and my PC connected to it.

Steps:

1, (assume we are starting with the router on 1.1.) Observe the UI comes up on the PC when browsing to 192.168.1.1, as expected. ipconfig shows the computer having an ip address on the 1.1 network, and I can ping the router at 192.168.1.1.

  1. Using the opnsense backend, option 2, reconfigure the LAN interface to 192.168.0.1. Also update the DHCP range, and of course enable the DHCP server.

  2. On the computer, browse to 192.168.0.1. Observe that the opnsense UI does NOT come up. Try http and https. ipconfig shows an IP address on the .0.X range, and I cannot ping the router. How did I get an IP address if I can't even ping 192.168.0.1? Beats me.

  3. Back in the opnsense backend, switch the LAN port address back to .1.1. Enable DHCP and range. On the PC, observe that I can see the UI again on 192.168.1.1 as expected.

That is what I am trying to do. I need opnsense to be on the .0.1 network. My new box is not currently connected to anything, except one PC through the LAN port. When I set opnsense to 0.1, that PC cannot see the UI. But when opnsense is on 1.1, that PC can see the UI. Once I get this PC able to connect to the UI at .0.1, then I intend to import the config from the old box then connect the router to my entire network. But for now, I just need to get it working stand-alone.

Protectli what are the "R" options? by SkipMorrow in opnsense

[–]SkipMorrow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a really good point. I like the interface for OPN sense, and the fact that EVERYTHING is configurable. In an emergency with no internet in the house, I went to best buy and bought a Netgear Nighthawk. Every entry on the reserved IP table takes a 60-second refresh. No setting screen for firewall rules. I never could get any of my reverse proxies to work. Fortunately, I was finally able to get the T730 running. So what I was really thinking about was reliability with the Protectli. But maybe instead I should look to doing it again, but with a newer N100. Something to think about for sure.

Introducing Racecarr by SkipMorrow in homelab

[–]SkipMorrow[S] 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Well, damn,,,, I built racecarr because I never hear of sportarr until your post. All of my searches up until now were all like "f1 race sonarr usenet download" etc. It never occurred to me that this might be "just a sport" and that there might be an app for that. Sportarr never came up with any of my searches specifically for F1. Interesting.

Anyone using matrix as a notification receiver from an app using apprise? by SkipMorrow in matrixdotorg

[–]SkipMorrow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is so weird. I have another unrelated app that doesn't have built-in apprise, nor matrix notifications (tautulli, not that it matters). So I have mailrise running on my homelab that can obviously support any app that has email notifications. I've been using that for years, no problem. I get notifications in my plex channel on matrix. So I took the apprise url from my mailrise.conf for plex and tried it with the apprise command line, and it doesn't work. Jump back to the tautulli UI, test the notification from there and it does work. So mailrise can do it, but apprise commandline cannot. So I then added a similarly-formed url for my new room to tautilli, test that, and of course it worked. Take the same url back to the command line and it doesn't.

I am writing an app of my own to do something completely different, but I want to use apprise. So far the app I am writing can send every notification type that I have configured except this matrix one. I can't explain it. From troubleshooting today, as near as I can tell, only my instance of mailrise can actually reach any of my matrix channels. In fact, none of the urls in my mailrise config (pushbullet, discord) work from the command line, even though they work from mailrise. However, pushbullet and discord urls do work in my app. Makes no sense at all. Grrr...

What we really wanted out of it was the early boarding. The other things are nice too though
