I haven't followed that thread, but I am assuming you want to access NAT services which are behind efw from the LAN. This doesn't work ?
If so, can you map the public IP to the internal IP of the server who is serving the NAT services ? I had to do this as I used m0n0wall (don't beat me up guys) and that solved my problem. I am using fixed IPs for the LAN, you are using DHCP and that will be than even easier for you. Johannes > Thanks for the work-around.
