Hi,

I'm having a problem with email registration using PacketFence inline (version 
4.5).  Would anyone be willing to help?

Here's the scenario:

User registers and selects Register by Email.
The node is marked registered with a deregister time of 10 minutes in the 
future.
The node can now access the internet and check for the email.
The email is received, the user clicks on the link but nothing happens and 
eventually the connection attempt times out.

Here's my observations:

Clicking on the link from a computer on a different network that has internet 
access works and the access is granted for the specified number of days.
If the user waits 10 minutes and their node is deregistered, they can then 
click the link and get the access granted message.

So it seems to me that something is blocking the connection to the portal only 
from a registered node.  However when I look at the iptables rules using 
"iptables -nxvL" the only drop rules I see are related to DNS, not HTTPS.

I have multiple inline interface pairs with PacketFence handling DHCP for the 
inside networks and managing NAT/PAT outbound to separate cable modems.  All 
traffic from the internet trying to access the portal comes back in through 
another firewall and is translated to the management interface.  I've verified 
the traffic is successfully traversing the other firewall as I can see the 
firewall log a "built inbound TCP connection" message.

Ideas?
