How are you redirecting your requests? It is probably due to the fact that a TCP handshake is not being allowed to complete because the server is responding to the client but the client is is expecting a response from the firewall. This is common in your arrangement. Sniff traffic with tcpdump on the various hosts and provide us with more details. > If I run next door > to my buddies and hit it from his PC I get there just > fine.

With the ifconfig utility, check the configuration of the involved network adapters. In particular, look for duplex and half-duplex. -- Peter __________________________________________________________ Find your next car at http://autos.yahoo.ca
