With 2.5.x - if I attempt to run backups without the -o parameter & the .net FULL is already installed on the server - we are getting backups saved to the .net full path on the C drive instead of the "current" directory. When I run the source in debug mode - I can see where it's getting the path from, but it seems like in certain scenarios it's being loaded into a temp space & then when the current path is being requested from Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location, the path is in correct.

I know the workaround is to specify -o, but any thoughts on a more general fix?

Can you ctreate key for time out Retrieving backup file
Thanks

No issue to report, but just wanted to say thank you for this program - it works brilliantly

Describe the bug
pfsense 2.5.0 encrypted backup requests the password confirmation so the -e option doesn't work anymore

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Use -e option

connecting using protocol 2.3.3
error the remote server returned an error 400 bad request .

It would be helpful if the README included information on what encryption algorithm is used to encrypt the backups, and how to decrypt them.

Hi,
/unfortunately, since upgrading to pfSense 2.4.4 I can no longer use this to create daily backus.
I get the following error:

Any chance of this being fixed?

Additional context

Hi

I am running the script succesfully on multiple pfsense routers for backups.

I added a new router but I get this error on it when running the batch:

Connecting using protocol version 2.5.0
Error: The SSL connection could not be established, see inner exception. The handshake failed due to an unexpected packet format.

Do you know what might cause this?

Syntax:
F:
cd F:\Backups\RouterBackups
pfSenseBackupv2.exe -u backup -p xxxxxxx -s x.x.x.x -o f:\Backups\RouterBackups\RouternameFolderx

First, great job, You safe a lot of my time.
Randomly, you can receive an exception caught by the SSL Certificat validation.
To fix it, just add

ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = SecurityProtocolType.Tls |
                                       SecurityProtocolType.Tls11 |
                                       SecurityProtocolType.Tls12;

Great work. Now I think that can be simplified using new os-api-backup to download backups without to use the user GUI.

I can confirm both 2.4.3 and 2.6.0 do work with the pfSense Plus fork, tested up to 21.02

With 2.7.0 - version # still set to 2.6.0.0 in VStudio project properties - so the info line still shows as 2.6.0 - even though we're running 2.7.0

Hi,

Ive got the latest pfsense version, then i noticed this program.
Any chance it will be supported ?
