Hello John,
if you use the latest version, it´s possible to specify in the configuration file networks.conf that you don´t want to nat.


Introduced in PacketFence 3.6, the outgoing interface should be specified by adding in pf.conf the option interfaceSNAT in inline section. It is a comma delimited list of network interfaces like eth0,eth0.100. It's also possible to specify a network that will be routed instead of using NAT by adding in `conf/networks.conf` an option nat=no under one or more network section.


regards
Fabrice

Hi,

I am working with Debian Squeeze and the latest package available for Packetfence.

We want to route our registered users rather than NAT them. But the instructions for custom NAT "Comment the line %%nat_postrouting_inline%% in conf/iptables.conf. Restart PacketFence. At this point packets are routed out" don't seem to work. As long as :postrouting-int-inline-if - [0:0] is in my iptables.conf these rules are created:
Chain POSTROUTING (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination
postrouting-int-inline-if all -- anywhere anywhere mark match 0x3 postrouting-int-inline-if all -- anywhere anywhere mark match 0x1 postrouting-int-inline-if all -- anywhere anywhere mark match 0x2


But ,of course, if I comment out :postrouting-int-inline-if - [0:0] I get errors on start-up and dns redirection breaks.

We have been using packetfence 3.3.2 with Fedora and had the same issue. There I edited iptables.pm <http://iptables.pm> to get the behavior I wanted like this:

foreach ($IPTABLES_MARK_UNREG, $IPTABLES_MARK_REG, $IPTABLES_MARK_ISOLATION) {
to:
foreach ($IPTABLES_MARK_UNREG, $IPTABLES_MARK_ISOLATION) {

This worked and it looks it will work again. But I'd really rather have the other piece working.

Any suggestions on why the directions aren't working for me?
