Greetings everyone!

Apologies in advance if this came through already.
 
This question has to do with PF and DNS from my internal 
network to my ISP.

Here is what I have done:

Set /etc/sysctl.conf

   net.inet.ip.forwarding=1

Set /etc/rc.conf

   pf=YES

Used the pf.conf file from the FAQ
(http://www.openbsd.org/faq/pf/example1.html).  Except 
my "internal" is xl0 and my external is rl0.  rl0 gets 
its IP dynamically.

My network looks exactly like the one in the FAQ
(http://www.openbsd.org/faq/pf/example1.html).

I can ping www.google.com from the firewall.

But I cannot ping www.google.com from any computers 
on the internal network.

First, does the pf.conf in the FAQ route DNS requests 
from the internal network?

Second, if not would someone suggest a rule to accomplish 
that, so that DNS can be handled by my ISP?
 
I've tried a couple of rdr/pass combinations.  But no luck.
 
Hell, I'm not even sure any rdr/pass combinations are
required....doesn't seem like it.

Thanks and take care,

Allen
