I highly recommend that this not be a password used anywhere else on your network. On the Mac side you will need to open system preferences and enable growl to listen on the network.Д¬heck вЂњListen for incoming notificationsвЂќД¬heck вЂњAllow remote application registrationвЂќД®nter the same password you setup in pfsense growl configuration. You will also need to enter the same password on your mac under growl preferences, to prevent unauthorized users from snooping in on growl notifications. IвЂ™d recommend creating a static entry in the firewall to prevent having to change this setting if the dhcp server ever happens to hand out a different address.Д¬reate a unique password in the password field. In my tests using the Alias of my personal mac resulted in failure of the growl message to arrive. You will need to enter the ip address of the computer with growl running. The advantage of this is instant alerts on your personal desktop to issues that need to be resolved.

PfSense firewall has a little known feature that allows it to send alerts to a Mac running Growl.
