ModSecurity 3 – working natively with nginx – is significantly different than prior versions, although in this case I think it’s merely a matter of not searching for the correct package name: here are the two packages (not ports) available – note the name change for v3. You’ll need to install ‘modsecurity3’ via packages for that version. (Your search for mod_security* was too restrictive and didn’t show you the v3 package, since it omits the underscore.) $ pkg search mod | grep security ap24-mod_security-2.9.2_3 Intrusion detection and prevention engine modsecurity3-3.0.3_1 Intrusion detection and prevention engine Thanks, — Matt Garber _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
