No iptables. wasn't even installed until 2 minutes ago. No http proxy statements very generic gentoo installation on the laptop. I have not tried wget, but I did try telnet to a host on port 80 and the connection hung. I had to do a ^] to get out of it. I have not tried wget, lynx or curl, though they are all installed.
I'll try a tcpdump from the pfsense machine the next time I'm in there and see what I find. thanks, Curtis ----- Original Message ----- From: "RB" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, March 18, 2008 2:15:34 PM (GMT-0500) America/New_York Subject: Re: [pfSense Support] Strange problem On 3/18/08, Curtis Maurand <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Like I said, it works fine on the same hardware if I run Windows, but not if > I run Linux.

OS and hardware likely aren't the issue here. Have you done something like 'export http_proxy="http://foobar:8080";' in your profile on the Linux box, or set up a port redirect with iptables, or any one of the other thousands of ways to muck with your http traffic on a Linux client? Have you tried using wget, curl, or lynx? Try the tcpdump from your pfSense system; it'll be the most immediate and apparent. If you see appropriate traffic (which at the moment I honestly doubt you will), then there's something really strange with your pfSense setup. Otherwise, you know it's something on the client. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
