Hi, I'm running v3.2 with ipfw and natd on a 2 nic machine as a gateway for a RFC1918 network of windows PCs. I changed the firewall type to "simple", and my internal network could no longer get internet access. of course in rc.firewall I have: $fwcmd add divert natd all from any to any via ${natd_interface} as the first line. The problem was the port 53 was not getting though. when I changed the original lines: # Allow DNS queries out in the world $fwcmd add pass udp from any 53 to ${oip} $fwcmd add pass udp from ${oip} to any 53 to # Allow DNS queries out in the world $fwcmd add pass udp from any 53 to any $fwcmd add pass udp from any to any 53 then it worked. Someone told me it was because I didn't have named running, so I added and configured that, it is correct I think. but I still have to have the more open port 53 lines in rc.firewall. Can anyone tell me, am I doing something wrong or ??? Thanks to all who can respond, Joe P.S. I apologize in advance if this has already been discussed, if you point me at the thread I will check it out.
