What does your /var/etc/inetd.conf file look like on the working system
and the broken system?

I'm not sure I've ever had 1:1 reflection work for me, but I haven't
tried it often. It uses a much different method than the port forwards do.

The inetd.conf comparison would really help. It sounds like something is
missing from the nc lines on one of the files.

Also, do you have any packages installed?

[pfSense Support] NAT Reflection Broken in recent builds

2011-05-23 Thread Dimitri Rodis
Just put a new FW in production a day and a half/two days ago (it was a few 
days old from a fresh flash to CF.. 
pfSense-2.0-RC1-2g-i386-20110519-1115-nanobsd.img) and I got the following 
message in a browser when folks were trying to hit sites hosted internally 
using NAT reflection:

nc: getaddrinfo: hostname nor servname provided, or not known

So yesterday I went ahead and told the thing to just upgrade to the latest 
build hoping that the problem would be resolved (the latest build showed 
RC2-yay), but it was not fixed, so I have reverted to my previous CF card which 
has the following build in which reflection seems to work properly for me 
(except for reflection on 1:1 which has always been flaky for me, but the 
websites/SMTP servers work flawlessly)

2.0-RC1 (i386)
built on Mon Mar 14 17:33:11 EDT 2011

I can still potentially access anything on the newer build for 
debugging/troubleshooting purposes if someone needs it since I have a spare 
unit that I can boot the CF on..

Thanks,
