i was custom build nethsecurity i’ll select the ns-dpi in #make menuconfig nathsecurity i’ll see this error
Did you already try a higher verbosity level to see what’s going on?
There’s a section in the dev manual about the netify plugins: Build system | NethSecurity
Thanks for trying building the firmware!
If you need to create a custom image, the easiest way is using the image builder: Custom images | NethSecurity
To try troubleshooting the build can you share:
- what branch/tag are you building?
- what command are you using for the build?
- did you set any env variable?
Regarding netifyd-flow-actions plugin: it’s a closed sourced plugin and you can’t build by yourself without access to the private repository.
The image should build without it, but I didn’t try it since ages.

I can’t download the imagebuilder (file not found, even after replacing the version)
Could you please share a current download link?
I tried different versions like
https://updates.nethsecurity.nethserver.org/23.05.5/targets/x86/64/nethsecurity-imagebuilder-23.05.5-x86-64.Linux-x86_64.tar.xz
https://updates.nethsecurity.nethserver.org/23.05.5/targets/x86/64/nethsecurity-imagebuilder-8-23.05.5-ns.1.4.1.Linux-x86_64.tar.xz
I can download this one but I think it’s old and not the right arch.
https://updates.nethsecurity.nethserver.org/dev/23.05.2/targets/sunxi/cortexa7/nethsecurity-imagebuilder-8-23.05.2-ns.0.0.1-beta1-117-g93db9c3-sunxi-cortexa7.Linux-x86_64.tar.xz
i’ll tell you step by step
git clone GitHub - NethServer/nethsecurity: NethSecurity image and build environment
cd nethsecurity
then ./run
to enter the OpenWrt build container,
./run bash
then i #make menuconfig
and i goto nethsecurity and i’ll select ns-dpi
then i’ll save
and i’ll simply cmd run #make
How can I access the netifyd-flow-actions plugin repository.
This is the correct link:
https://updates.nethsecurity.nethserver.org/stable/23.05.5/targets/x86/64/nethsecurity-imagebuilder-8-23.05.5-ns.1.4.1-x86-64.Linux-x86_64.tar.xz
I’ve also opened a PR to fix the doc: doc: fix imagebuilder link by gsanchietti · Pull Request #1124 · NethServer/nethsecurity · GitHub
You should checkout the latest stable tag.
Still, I’m not sure it will build without the plugin.
@Tbaile have you tried recently?
How can I access the netifyd-flow-actions plugin repository.
You can’t: we have a non-disclosure agreement with Netify for it. We can release the binary but not the source code.

I did (actually yesterday), and I’ve found the following:
- entrypoint of the build tool build system will disable the plugins just fine
- however it will fail due to
ns-dpipackage that flagsnetify-flow-actionsas a dependency
I don’t think this is easy to decouple tho. Probably @jhonraushan you’ll find it easier to install as-is.
Beware, you can disable the ns-dpi package, but everything related to:
- Network statistics
- DPI filtering
- probably something else
Will break and the UI won’t work as intended

can you Please tell me how can i build this , i download this file what i can do next
Please, see the doc I’ve already added above: Custom images | NethSecurity
It’s tested on CentOS 7, but it should work on most distros.
i am try many times but this is not work please please help me how can i build this method i think i try wrong way please guide me 
I built it on OpenSuse Leap 15.6, where I didn’t need extra packages but maybe I already installed them earlier…
I can confirm that It also works on CentOS 7.
I think you were in the wrong directory and the tar files do include the directories now and the name is now “nethserver-main” instead of “nethserver-master”.
Get needed packages for CentOS 7, there may be different packages needed for your distro:
yum -y install perl-Thread-Queue devtoolset-7-make git unzip bzip2
Get imagebuilder:
wget https://updates.nethsecurity.nethserver.org/stable/23.05.5/targets/x86/64/nethsecurity-imagebuilder-8-23.05.5-ns.1.4.1-x86-64.Linux-x86_64.tar.xz
Extract imagebuilder:
tar xvf nethsecurity-imagebuilder-8-23.05.5-ns.1.4.1-x86-64.Linux-x86_64.tar.xz
Enter the extracted imagebuilder directory
cd nethsecurity-imagebuilder-8-23.05.5-ns.1.4.1-x86-64.Linux-x86_64
Exclude logd:
sed -i '/logd \\/d' include/target.mk
Get the files and extract them:
wget https://github.com/NethServer/nethsecurity/archive/refs/heads/master.tar.gz
tar xvf master.tar.gz
Add custom files (optional, just to show adding custom files)
mkdir nethsecurity-main/files/etc
nano nethsecurity-main/files/etc/mycustomfile
Needed on CentOS 7, not needed on OpenSuse Leap 15.6:
source /opt/rh/devtoolset-7/enable
Build it:
make image FILES="nethsecurity-main/files/" PACKAGES="$(grep "Package: " packages/Packages | cut -d ':' -f 2 | tr '\n' ' ')"
The images are located in bin/targets/x86/64/
