I submitted this problem a few months ago and have worked down to more of
what the problem is and would like to see if anyone else if having the
problem. This is the original email with all the details. Notes to add as of
now are I changed from ipnat to natd with all firewalls open and the problem
went away. I switched back to ipnat and the problem happened within 30
minutes.
----- Original Email---
I am running Freebsd 4.8 with Ipfilter's latest version. This box is running
as a firewall/NAT box. There is a couple pc's behind the firewall. I have a
few more servers that are connected to the ISP router they are parallel to
the firewall. Current setup looks like this. I do have two blocks of IP on
my network from my ISP.

192.168.1.x
TO PC's
Problem:
Randomly we can not route from the pc's behind the firewall to Server 1. It
will stop routing to server 1 for 5-15 minutes. I can still reach Server 3
which is our DNS server and sometimes server 2. Then it will start working.
At this time while we can not reach Server 1, we can still browse to
websites beyond our network. This can happen 6 times an hour some days and
sometimes twice a day. If I set our Firewall, server 4 to ip 208.x.x.246,
we will have problems randomly reaching server 3. The problems happen not
as offen as the first setup. I have IPF and IPNAT enabled on the firewall. I
have disabled IPF completely and it still had problems. I have included as
much as possable
I am getting this error message in my /var/log/messages right when the
firewall stops routing to the local network.
