[-- Attachment #1 --] Hi, First i'm very impressed by the quality of the job done.. I'm sorry to ask such a question but i can't find help on the freebsd.org site . So i'm using freebsd 4.0 release as a firewall with firewall enabled in kernel. All is working fine but i want my web server (wich is behind the firewall) to be accessible by external machines (on the Internet). So i decide to use the rule forward of the Firewall : ipfw add fwd webserver,80 tcp from any to firewallmachine 80 in recv tun0 The rule is applied when a connection is made (I used the log option) but the web client can't get any answer.. Can i use such a solution for my configuration or am I totally wrong ? I Thank you if you can add an answer on the website or by mail Timothy Nelson Union des Eleves de l'Ecole Nationale Supérieur des Arts et Métiers de Paris [France] Student Association of the National Engeenering Institute [-- Attachment #2 --] <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" http-equiv=Content-Type> <META content="MSHTML 5.00.2920.0" name=GENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=#ffffff> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi,</FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>First i'm very impressed by the quality of the job done..</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm sorry to ask such a question but i can't find help on the freebsd.org site .</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>So i'm using freebsd 4.0 release as a firewall with firewall enabled in kernel.</FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>All is working fine but i want my web server (wich is behind the firewall) to be accessible by external machines (on the Internet).
