[pfSense] order of firewall rules
I had my firewall rules ordered from top to bottom with the ACCEPTED aliases at the top Yesterday I noted that some accepted IP addresses were being blocked Went to the admin GUI and noted in the Firewall Rules display that the accepted aliases had moved to the bottom. How would that happen? TIA -- Gerald ___ List mailing list List@lists.pfsense.org https://lists.pfsense.org/mailman/listinfo/list

Outlook shouldn't be using IP options, we'd have had a flood of problem reports if that were the case with any degree of consistency. Without having a packet capture it's hard to say. My guess based on the description is the machine with Outlook has a network misconfiguration of sorts where its traffic isn't hitting the firewall Thanks for the response. It is several Outlook IPs that will not work correctly. the outlook client connects but does not complete and error on server is no auth attempts error on the client: /T//ask 'u...@domain.com - Receiving' reported error (0x8004210A) : 'The operation timed out waiting for a response from the receiving (POP) server.

Re: [pfSense] 1:1 NAT on pfSense 2.0.1
On 12/18/2012 10:06 AM, Marcio Merlone wrote: Greetings, I am trying to make a dead simple 1:1 NAT from one wan address to an internal server. I was assigned the x.x.x.152/29 address for my WAN from my ISP, and designated the ip x.x.x.154 for pfsense while x.x.x.153 is its gateway. I can use pfsense as gateway for internet just fine. Now I want to open my web server to the world. I first created a virtual IP x.x.x.155/29 on the WAN interface as an IP alias, then a 1:1 NAT pointing x.x.x.155 to 10.0.0.215, which is my web server and finally created a respective firewall rule on the wan interface allowing traffic from wan to 10.0.0.215 on port 80. The same as on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lMRA1ntgz8 Is that all? Have I missed something? With this setup x.x.x.155 opens up pfsense login screen and not my web server. Can anybody help me track what's wrong? AFAIK there is no 1:1 NAT We bridge WAN and OPT1 and the servers set on the OPT1 port thus the servers have public IP addresses but are protected by the firewall makes sort of a DMZ with office PCs setting on the LAN PORT -- Gerald ___ List mailing list List@lists.pfsense.org http://lists.pfsense.org/mailman/listinfo/list
