NG Firewall 16.3 beta now available for preview

[donhwyo]

I never allow auto upgrade because of stuff like this. I forgot to uncheck it this time. Maybe on betas it should be off by default! I have a proxmox snapshot to roll back to so not that big of a deal for me. Maybe you should also make a proxmox image available.

I have tested most betas since 2008. I have never seen so many failures as I have in the last year or two. Until I see better results I am no longer testing and wasting my time.

Thanks

I am assuming then I will be okay for RC1?

I'm guessing this is the beta install that upgraded? There is an issue upgrading to the next version 16.4 from the beta when 16.4 comes out. While betas are usually fine to upgrade to the final version, we advise against it and reinstalling any beta instances with the final release.

Okay ... so future 16.3 upgrades I will be fine. 16.4 ... I may run into problems.

Noted that when 16.3 final comes out ... it is best practice to reinstall.

Lots of higher compliance businesses (such as NIST 800-171, CMMC)...require MFA on VPN.
WireGuard has been the VPN we've been shifting clients to...and hoping MFA would be added to it.
Now...steps backwards, OpenVPN gets it....time to go rip out WireGuard (which...I started loving)...and back to OpenVPN.
