Hi all,
More on this dilemma of mine but another aspect.
I have opened up my new firewall rules to pass in/out
all for testing because I can't seem to ping out from
the firewall machine and hence from any machine on my
lan.
In ipf.rule I did ....  
pass in quick any all
pass out quick any all
So as I read it that should open it up (wide open?)
ifconfig -a reports dhcp assigned ip and default
gateway on tun0 from my adsl connection OK ...so it
dialed out and authenticated fine.
But I need dns to work...it aint! Here are some
configs....

My Resolv.conf is++++++++++++++++++++++
search smmc.qld.edu.au
nameserver  192.168.1.1   <--this is my local lan
dnsserver (this machine is fine! DNS works on it OK.
It is multi-homed to a routable IP and has an external
isdn connection)

nameserver  61.9.128.13   <--I guess these 2 have come
from the dhcp at my ISP via ADSL
nameserver  61.9.128.16
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

netstat -nr reports...

Routing tables

Internet:
Destination        Gateway            Flags     Refs  
  Use     Netif Expire
default            172.31.16.24       UGSc        4   
   56     tun0
127.0.0.1          127.0.0.1          UH          0   
    0      lo0
172.31.16.24       144.137.148.12     UH          4   
    0     tun0
192.168.1          link#1             UC          0   
    0      dc0 =>
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Where dc0 is the internal lan connection NIC
192.168.1.0/32
To me it looks OK.
I can ping my 192.168.1.1 DNS server...but no go!

Frustration is starting to set in.
Any help is needed. Advice is welcome but I have read
some docs...to no avail
Keith
