Sorry, away for a couple of days...but yes, I am firewalled (ipfw, I beleive I'm running 4.2 current, although kernel says 4.3 beta...I cvsup-ed and this is a by product). fxp0 is external if, tun0 is pppoe if pointed at fxp0 and fxp1 is internal. I have no problem scanning to internal addrs, but can't go through tun0 to get to the internet, nmap gives "permission denied" error trying to open tun0 if.
