Re: IPFilter on FreeBSD 4.6-STABLE
by Neafevoc on Thursday August 22, @01:18PM

First of all... thanks for the help Erik. It works!

Did my problem lie in my original ipnat.rules? I thought I was supposed to direct it to an actual IP address to my external NIC?

And it didn't matter if my external NIC was /29? (Or subnet mask 255.255.255.248).

I ask this only to understand the workings of IPFilter (and probably networking in general).

Now that it works, I'll write new ipf.rules and ipnat.rules. And I'll follow ipnat.rules where my external NIC is 0/32, correct? (Sorry for being redundant. Hopefully this post will help others out since I couldn't find any other post relating to IPF on this site.)

Thanks again :)
