It's not and hasn't been in ... I think there was someone fixing the documentation actually lately... I'll ping people and see where that went. > I'm using tunnel mode for network to network vpn. If you are using tunnel mode and gif you'll have trouble; just use tunnel mode without gif and you'll be happy. >> NAT before IPSEC can be done with ipfw, not with pf, don't know about >> ipfilter. > > Can you elaborate a little more about the reason ipfw can and pf cannot?

It's because (our) pf cannot NAT on incoming but only on outgoing interfaces.

The answer is use IPv6 and ... oh wait.. not the answer you wanted to hear;) I haven't done it in probably 5 years or so now but basically you setup the nat on the incoming (probably your inside) interface and take care of localhost as much as needed. /bz -- Bjoern A.
