          Same issue here.
          Tried to use it with Win2k8 TMG.
          TMG's gateway is pfSense LAN IP (this is important! without this forwarding doesn't work)
          Seems it even don't try to connect, just refusing connection with CLOSED:SYN_SENT.
          Just ignoring firewall rules… or I have missed something in pfSense firewall?
          Check screenshots attached.

          EDIT: sorry for information missed: tested on pfSense-2.0-BETA4-20101116-1840-i386.iso
          EDIT: Thanks for fix for Ticket #989. Will try this as soon new snapshot will be available.

            You do not need the gre allowance with latest snaphots.
            Your problem is that you do not need to specify the gateway in firewall rules.

                  ermal: just curious - will there be an OpenBSD pf patch in the future?
