First of all sorry about the duplicate post, I got a bounce message and sent it again by mistake.
Anyway back to the problem. I went from 4.5 to 4.6 but the only reason I'm using ipnat is that I am doing port forwarding from my firewall to my internal server for some services (www and smtp) and I don't know how to use ppp -nat. The other reason is that I'm using the ppp.conf file that was supplied to my with the speedtouch USB modem software and I need to reload my rules manually before I can connect to the outside world, i'm assuming that this is because the ADSL connection is established after the ipf rules have been loaded. On closer inspection I have noticed that I have not indented the ipf and ipnat lines in my ppp.linkup file and being that the sample files are doing this I guess it is required (can't belive I missed that).
