To NAT or not to NAT thats the question !

Hi people
I have some strange NAT problems and can'n get em solved.
I am using the PFSense BETA 1.0 on my WRAP and want to FTP and SSH from the universe :-) to my home server.
I set up for example SSH in NAT like thisWAN Interface -> Proto TCP -> Port 22 -> NAT IP 192.168.192.4 -> Port 22
And the firewall rule on the WAN interface is that
WAN Interface -> Proto TCP -> Source * -> Port 22 (SSH) -> Destination 192.168.192.4 -> Port 22 (SSH)
but it won't work :-(
when I am @home ( from within LAN) it works well and when I am connected via PPTP it is ok too.
Well I do not get it , some of you maybe ? please helpFTP is working neither from outside nor from inside out.
WHAARG !
so long …and thx

FTP is under observation atm and it looks that something is a bit borked there.
To access your pfsense from WAN-side you don't need a NAT. Simply create a pass rule at WAN with protocol tcp from source any, port any, destination interface adress, port SSH.

thx for the answer…
...will ftp work better in beta 2 ?the thing with ssh is that i do not want to ssh to my pfsense box but to my FreeBSD server. and i think thats the point where i need a NAT rule for it.
but this won't work either ! hmm..so long...

ssh works for now
the source port for the rule was wrong, I set it to any
thx
