Thanks very much for the help, I've got it up and running at this point.  I've got some more questions, but I'll post them under the sub forums where they should go.  Thanks again!

Easiest program I know of to literally map a drive letter is called webdrive. Which can map a drive to FTP or SFTP (FTP over SSH) site. However the program is not free but does have a full evaluation version you can take a look at it at: http://www.webdrive.com/ One other choice I'm aware of is: http://www.sftpdrive.com/ If you don't need drive mapping and you are using Firefox there is an add on called FireFTP which is a great program that supports FTP and SFTP.

Please use the search. This has been discussed countless times. http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?action=search keywords: "kernel: arplookup"

Why not use snmp and pull from pfsense to a internal/external webserver cacti is a nice and free graph proggie, need a webserver and runs both on win and *nix, *bsd maby not what you want, but you got informed of the possibility anyway ;) /F

How is your WAN interface delivered? If your ISP is responsible for the equipment that presents you with an Ethernet interface, then you need to talk to them. If you are responsible for that equipment, you need to investigate its configuration. To use full duplex, both ends need to be talking full duplex.

@heiko: Click HOME at the top and then you can search the whole forum Yup, that's what I figured :). From the posts I've read, I'm getting the feeling that it might be because I'm using a 4-port Ethernet card. Perhaps it doesn't have enough buffering. I'll look into that next.  Perhaps there's a way of using system memory with it or something.

@olaf: Step by step: #pw user add -n joe -c "Joe Smith, Jr." -d /home/none -s /bin/sh #passwd joe Regards, Olaf hello.. I'm also attempting to do this (add user(s) just for SSH tunneling I added the user via ur prev post but I get an error that the server rejected our key (admin works) the unprivilaged user can only log in if i uncheck the "Disable Password login for Secure Shell (KEY only)" option. anyone know how I can get Key login working ? EDIT… NEVERMIND i figured it out just needed to copy the .ssh/authorized_keys to the new users /home/none location.

Thanks for the info, folks. –Eric

@Perry: hmm, i don't understand.. how is it limited to send magic packet from one nic ? (192.168.1.255) I mixed some switches so never mind :) ok, but now, how can i specify from which my interface magic packet will be sent ?

@Juve: I'm currently using a simple bash script calling wget with some POST parameters (auth + backup page parameters). working well since november 2005.  ;) I finally have time to get this integrated into my RANCID backup environment and was looking to do JUST that.  Rather than recreating the wheel, could you post your code to do what you're doing?  It'll save me time and likely a headache. nb

@killgannon: … i cant even ping opt1 from anything on opt1.... Are you sure you got the alias definition for 'Wireless net' right? You use it for the access rule on the wireless tab. If you can't even ping OPT1 from within OPT1 then the traffic gets blocked at the interface for some reason. Try to find out why.
