Need iChat to work without NAT

[jt14051]

Hello.

I've read the followin instructions - http://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Static_Port - to get iChat running through pfSense.

We use public IPs on our LAN side for the captive portal.  We need NAT off so we can audit users and their assigned IPs.

With NAT off, I cannot use the "static port" option in the "Manual Outbound NAT rule generation (Advanced Outbound NAT (AON))" section.

Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks.

With NAT off, you are not doing NAT and thus dont need the "static ports" option.
Without NAT the pfSense is not rewriting the ports.
Did you make sure you have appropriate firewall rules in place?
