The answer was to enable promiscuous mode on the nic in ESXi http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1004099 So that the FreeBSD (middle) host would receive the packets destine for the inner VM. Without promiscuous mode, any packets with an ethernet address other than that of the ESXi virtual nic, will not be passed into the VM. -- Allan Jude [-- Attachment #2 --] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (MingW32) iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJVU+r/AAoJEJrBFpNRJZKfIhYP/jBOOfT1vQRFuxhVqtNtkYNf HTJ1b1YWDlKLVviMDGiUtts6CF3bAGoPdkzO0Lqma9aBdyKC49NdffU+YDlIRefs r4J9hareSpO5WiL6Ej7eDuTmAnouKvYkyTqv27pP5VGbHjpc+Xwhd3q2e32ZAeMU YAJhrIFoJQfgyv9f9n1siietksHHPfsP5O49aE8RHaGt4ezsqT4e8UDfu3zpqMpG HuE3ZTnm8WC+FCAGoQOcu2FQa/Soq6xl7SpatrBAd41VBboyt29hbYbH3i6aHn9u 3dQ1kGQzaoCFGwaQlCLGRwvf/PkznZ8iLLW8PQDr+0Z8Rs6USqd+39BE8Pjlwzsc YZewE9Ka5J+gbiAZhZzPrxrQKzAcY2rBwpQWJjJX5JdlQoHsWyNhMNWTjMPKuMCw ruicqbaYIS8wnk7IIu6n1ifpgES22BOl2ME0k27zSyXVo0808+gBzu2nR6meUeMW 08w1xZYDgR6iVLqYA6oFnE26aG8qOH5UzmAHJPVd6LQ+NcubrhNKPsT062nTQASc Nqa6msED4dOpSDok77fKwoT6C0Uj01v8/kvyIwTM1E7P8/ddADGLrYF6lokQ2Tnr j81+sMkGFwxFGTpvQM3HQXAudtltrWvBnslZ/nT4tV/T2x0dmyutjRXe/vtHtkyl z/9kQJamG074kBu0wUoN =Vhcs -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
