Re: [pfSense Support] IP Routing
Hi, The way I understood it, you are trying to redirect INTERNAL computers that try to access 74.125.224.214 to your server but allow your server access to that IP. There is no easy way to do this in 1.2.x. However, in 2.0, you should be able to do this with Port Forwarding. Try a Port Forward Rule similar to the following: - Interface: LAN - Source: NOT - Dest: 74.125.224.214 - Dest. Port Range: an alias that contains 80 and 443 - Redirect Target IP: - Redirect Target Port: Same alias as above Moshe -- Moshe Katz -- mo...@ymkatz.net -- +1(301)867-3732 On Thu, Mar 10, 2011 at 8:44 PM, Anthony Saenz wrote: > Hi, > > I'm new to pfsense and so far haven't found a way to do the following: > > I'm trying to route traffic on ports 80/443 going to a "public" IP (in this > case let's say 74.125.224.214) to a box we have internally here in the > office but if that box itself tries to hit the IP, allow it to pass through > to the intended destination.

There are alternative options though. If you just need the server itself to access the website you're serving why use the external IP address to do that. You can use the host file to point it to itself. If you need the rest of the internal hosts to be able to access the website by dns name you can also use split dns which gives the hosts the internal IP address for the resource rather than the external IP address. -- David
[pfSense Support] NAT hairpinning
I have a pair of 1.2.3 boxes and I'm having some issues that have manifested themselves as an inability to send emails with attachments depending on the IP of the mail server the message is being sent to. Setup: Host A is on interface LAN. Host A is supposed to get NAT translated once it leaves interface LAN. Mail Server has interfaces on both LAN and APP networks. Mail Server delivers mail for two domains, foo.com and bar.com. Host A resolves mail.foo.com to an IP on the LAN side. Host A resolves mail.bar.com to an IP on the APP side. Scenario 1: - Host A sends an email via mail.foo.com, pfSense sees nothing, as expected, because Host A and the SMTP server are on the same subnet. - Everything works fine. Scenario 2: - Host A sends an email with no attachment via mail.bar.com, pfSense receives the packet, forwards it to APP side of Mail Server. - Mail Server netstat shows the destination IP of the SMTP connection to be the APP IP as expected. - Mail Server netstat shows the source IP of the SMTP connection is from Host A's LAN IP instead of the outbound NAT IP. - Everything works fine. Scenario 3: - Host A sends an email with any size attachment via mail.bar.com, pfSense receives the packet, forwards it to APP side of Mail Server. - Mail Server netstat shows the destination IP of the SMTP connection to be the APP IP as expected. - Mail Server netstat shows the source IP of the SMTP connection is from Host A's LAN IP instead of the outbound NAT IP. - Message transmission times out. Exim has no knowledge of the transaction so nothing shows up in maillog. I have a feeling this has something to do with the asymmetric nature of the traffic when Host A tries to send mail to mail.bar.com because it's got an IP in APP and LAN. I've scoured the NAT config, created a manual NAT entry on the LAN interface hoping to translate everything as it leaves the LAN interface, I've also toggled the Nat Reflection checkbox in the System Configuration. Nothing seems to make a difference - I can't get mail.bar.com to see the NAT IP. The really strange thing is that this this all works fine if no attachment is sent in the email (scenario 2).

[pfSense Support] IP Routing
Hi, I'm new to pfsense and so far haven't found a way to do the following: I'm trying to route traffic on ports 80/443 going to a "public" IP (in this case let's say 74.125.224.214) to a box we have internally here in the office but if that box itself tries to hit the IP, allow it to pass through to the intended destination. Is this at all possible or is there another medium that would allow me to do this?

I just want to know what went wrong. FWIW, I run RC1-RC4 on a Supermicro X7SPA-H. It suffers from the USB mount problem, but running from a SATA HDD or SDD works fine. USB boot can be fixed by adding a delay to the config file.

I've seen it on 1.2 based distros as well. Or rather, I've seen RRD problems (like NaNs in the DB) caused by multiple updaterrd's running.
