Blog - IPFire 2.25 - Core Update 142 released

@ms
This update brings a new kernel which is based on Linux 4.14.171.

Is not 4.14.173 correct?

yes please have a look at 2.25 Core 142 Testing seems that the blog text wasn’t corrected.

btw 142 final works well thanks for the work!

Same here, updated this morning.
All good for now, no problem found.

Best regards.

UT1

+1 for IPFire 2.25 (x86_64) - Core Update 142 with base system + hostapd

 Thanks!

Core 142 increased CPU and associated temperatures after upgrade from 141.
Consistent on all my IPFire boxes.

Yes it is. I fixed it. Sorry. I had a long week.

I would recommend that you collect more information about this and open a bug report to have a look at it.

with the core update to 142 the DNS resolution totally broke down.
i use pihole as my main DNS server and ipfire as my DHCP server.
ipfire has autonomous DNS resolution

after upgrading to 142 no DNS resolution could be done.
i had to revert to a previous CU version in order to make DNS work again

I am still having problems with DNS. The problem is intermittent and very annoying.

  • I try to access community.ipfire.org and I can access.
  • I try to log in with my username and cannot access people.ipfire.org.
  • I access the IPFire Console and it says “Broken”.
  • After a while, I go back to the IPFire DNS and put “Working”.
  • So I can already access people.ipfire.org well.

  • After a while (1 or 2 minutes) “Broken” appears again and so on.

I am looking in the LOGs and I can’t find anything. Is there a way to put it in -verbose mode?

If you use suricata try to disable it. If it now works try to increase the buffers for DNS and flood protection triggers in /etc/suricata/suricata.yaml

Unlucky. :frowning_face:

I have disabled Suricata and for a minute it has been “Working” now instead it is “Broken”.

I try to ping people.ipfire.org and this appears:

C:\Users\rober>ping people.ipfire.org
La solicitud de ping no pudo encontrar el host people.ipfire.org. Compruebe el nombre y
vuelva a intentarlo.

I have had to put Google’s DNS directly on the PC.

With 141 the DNS worked correctly, but with 142, everything is a problem (I will not update any IPFire to this version). I’ll wait for 143 to see if it gets fixed. I can’t risk having these problems in Production.

What does unbound log?

Thanks.

i’m in the same situation, all worked fine until this night,
dns status is broken, this is a big issue for us because we are at home
for coronavirus, and if the firewall doesn’t work it’s a nightmare.
the only way to continue working was in smartworking in remote from their home.
i have 5 people that tomorrow morning will be blocked.

Any suggestion?

UT1

Edit : 19.30 in the afternoon.
i checked again and the dns system is working again.
I didn’t do anything. anybody else?

regards

UT1

When I first updated from Core 141 to Core 142 I had either no DNS or extremely slow DNS depending on the website.

Multiple reboots did not help. The only thing that helped me was turning off all of my current DNS settings. So I went from this:


and went back to the Default settings of:
• Use ISP-assigned DNS servers = [unsure if I clicked this on or not]
• Protocol for DNS queries = UDP
• Enable Safe Search = unchecked
• QNAME Minimisation = Standard

I clicked Save and tested various websites - all was back to normal and websites loaded quickly.

I turned everything back on (Protocol for DNS queries = TLS, Enable Safe Search = checked, QNAME Minimisation = Strict) and again everything was normal. This did not make sense to me…

All has been working fine since these changes.

EDIT: In a log I had many error: SERVFAIL type messages.

I believe for correct TLS authentication you will also want to use the FQDN of the DNS server. For instance, with cloudflare this is one.one.one.one.

And the solution is…

Changing it or debug network connectivity issues?
