      Hello all,

      I'm new with pfsense. I install pfsense 1.2.3 stable on a PC with 2 NIC.

      WAN = Realtek > rl0 > 192.168.141.203/24 >>>> GO TO >>>> my Lan with many clients
      LAN = old winbond > ed0 > 192.168.141.204/24 >>>> GO TO >>>> Webserver (linux)

      I bridged LAN > WAN

      set rules

      WAN = PASS *  *  *  *  *  *  ( I think every thing is allowed)
      LAN = PASS *  LAN net  *  *  *  *      Default LAN -> any

      disable NAT: Firewall > NAT >  Outbound > (X)Manual Outbound NAT rule generation (Advanced Outbound NAT (AON))

      in the auto created > (X) No NAT (NOT).

      from my clienst (it's on the WAN Interface) I can ping WAN & LAN ip. (I heare by bridging pfsense will ignore the LAN IP ??) .. but I cannot ping the webserver behind firewall using 192.168.141.205 on the LAN-Interface.

      from Firewall I cannot ping the webserver and from Webserver I cannot ping the Firewall interfaces or someone bevor the wall ..

      someone can help`? I found many howtos but all 2 jears old or older. it doesend work.

      I use http://pfsense.trendchiller.com/transparent_firewall.pdf

      Thanx, Brian
