      Hi,

      I need access to a particular computer at a LAN from a static public IP at the internet.

      Say that my pfsense's public IP is 85.85.85.85 and its LAN IP is 192.168.100.1
      The LAN computer I need access to is at 192.168.100.32
      Finally, say that the public IP which needs access to the LAN computer is 86.86.86.86

      Do I need to enable NAT or something to be able to ping 192.168.100.32 via the internet from a computer at 86.86.86.86?

      Thanks for some tips to help me get this up and running ;-)

        What kind of service do you have to access?
        Yes you have to forward ports to the computer you want to access.

        We do what we must, because we can.
