The first packet arrives on $int_if and is blocked by "block in all". It never has a chance to route to $ext_if, and thus never matches the nat rule. The "nat pass" does not apply because the initial packet is not arriving on $ext_if so it can't match the rule (yet). You have to allow the connection in on $int_if first, then when it routes out $ext_if it will match the nat rule and set up state. - -- David DeSimone == Network Admin == [EMAIL PROTECTED] "This email message is intended for the use of the person to whom it has been sent, and may contain information that is confidential or legally protected.
