Subject:   Filtering out problem with IPFilter

Hello,

I'm running a FreeBSD 4.4p2-RELEASE gateway here with IPFilter. I 
noticed that packets comming in from the network can be filtered and 
blocked, but once they are through I can't filter them with out rules.
For example;
I make a rule to pass in all traffic from xl0 to any
Then I say all traffic out on ep0 is allowed, but on xl1 only a small
range of addresses can go out. What I notice is that all computers on
xl0 can go to an address behind xl1. The gateway itself can't go out on
xl1. It almost seems as if gateway_enable="YES" in rc.conf lets packets
bypass the out filter. I'm not using NAT.
This is not a big problem, because I can manage everything through IN 
rules, it's still strange.

Greetings,
Eric
