Hi,

thanks for the hint.

I didn't get that to work right away, either….

But while I worked through various documentations and tutorials, I checked if
net.inet.ip.forwarding
was actually set to 1.
It wasn't, even though sysctl.conf had it set.


After re-applying it, things started to work again…



Best Regards,
Rainer
