Can't get to anything behind FW from behind FW
-
Not sure where to post this. Here is my scenario.
I have a PF that is doing NAT (public IP to private)
If I am on the LAN side of the PF, I can't get to any of the routable IP's of machines behind the PF.
ie., www.acme.com is a web server I have behind the PF. If I am on any machine behind the PF, I can't get to www.acme.com
I have tried multiple DNS servers and no go.
Thoughts?

You need to use Split DNS by using the DNS Forwarder in pfsense. That way machines on your network get the local IP rather than the external IP.
By default NAT reflection is disabled. Which is another way of 'fixing' your issue, but I find it doesn't work very well when enabled.
