Not without a bit more detail about your setup.  For instance, how do exter=
nal=20
clients talk to the vpn server on it's private IP?  Do you use rdr for this=
? =20
Is the vpn server aware that it sits behind a NAT firewall?

Also make sure that you log blocked traffic.  See pflog(4)::EXAMPLES for=20
details on how to watch blocked traffic.  This is the easiest way to ensure=
=20
that you really pass everything that is required.  If nothing suspicious=20
turns up there, you can try to raise the debug level of pf by issueing:=20
"$pfctl -x misc".  Watch your console log for BAD state messages.  If=20
anything pops up there, please let us know.

In any case, if you are stuck please reply with more details such as a=20
detailed setup description and pf.conf.
