I run IPfilter on Solaris 10 quite successfully. However, I ran into
a strange problem while trying to implement port forwarding with the
rdr and map commands of ipnat.

___________________________________________________
Having stated all this, what is it that I am trying to achieve and
what is the problem?
Starting out there on the Internet, I want to ssh 194.88.106.36 on
port 9022 with the intent of reaching 192.168.90.1 port 22.
The given configuration works, BUT only while I snoop on interface
eri0 of 194.88.106.36 !?
When I stop snooping, so does the traffic from source to destination.
As soon as I restart snoop, traffic resumes.
I only intended to use snoop as a debugging tool, not as an integral
part of port forwarding.
Any idea out there?
Thanks,
Thierry
