Hello,
I'm running FreeBSD 6.1 with IPF/IPNAT, and I'm having a problem getting my rules to work. The problem is mainly that I want no restrictions on outbound traffic, and I'm not sure how to apply stateful filtering to that. I have the following rule (hme0 is my external interface):

pass out quick on hme0 all

If I change that to "pass out quick on hme0 all keep state," will that only open the port that the outbound packet was on? Are there any problems that can arise from allowing all outbound traffic? At the moment, my ruleset doesn't pass packets at all... I'm just having lots of troubles here. My ruleset is below, and everything seems to be caught by the last block all rule. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
nwatson
