Would you kindly ask questions of this type here first and leave Bugzilla for real bugs please? As for your question, you should make habit of using "log" keyword while debugging ipfw-related problems, for example: ipfw add 19001 nat 19001 log tcp from 192.168.5.3 to 192.168.5.3 3100 in recv lo0 This will write useful details to /var/log/security when a packet is matched by the rule. It will not add there anything if there are no matches. And if there are no matches and parameters are right, this generally means that packet is matched and consumed with some rule above. I presume your ruleset contains default rule "100 allow ip from any to any via lo0" that matches all local packets, so they have no change to hit your rule. Try changing 19001 to 90 so it catches packets earlier. If this does not help, show your full ruleset. _______________________________________________ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-net-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
