    @Frogg said in Port 443 timeout using Netcat but is working in browser:

    DNS fwd/rev mismatch: domain.com != machinedomain

    which is why what your doing is not the correct solution.. What you should be doing is dns resolution to access your machines via their local IPs vs nat reflection..

        Yeah a simple host override so that whatever.domain.tld resolves to the actual local IP you want 192.168.1.4 I take it.

          I added the domain name to the local 192.168.1.4 machine if i check /etc/hostname i get the domain name

          But i don't think it would fix it has the domain name in the comparaison il the host xx.xx.xx.xx.rev.poneytelecom.eu reverse DNS

          Or i am really missing something

            On pfsense create a host override - your clients point to pfsense for dns right?

            So whatever.domain.tld points to your local IP 192.168.1.4, and then the ptr for 192.168.1.4 would also resolve to that..

              Thanks for the help,
              but i fill like i am lacking of knowledge on this part.

              In network config of 192.168.1.4 (and all local machines) i use 192.168.1.1 as DNS

              In the interface DNS resolver was disabled, so i enabled it and added the Host Overrides

              Dig domain.com

              ;; ANSWER SECTION:
              domain.com      960     IN      A       internetIp
              

              Dig - x domain.com

              ;; AUTHORITY SECTION:
              in-addr.arpa.           3600    IN      SOA     b.in-addr-servers.arpa. nstld.iana.org. 2020081164 1800 900 604800 3600
              

              i think i am missing something to have the same result as yours

                @Frogg said in Port 443 timeout using Netcat but is working in browser:

                i use 192.168.1.1 as DNS

                And what is that? Is that not pfsense? This only works if what your using for dns for your local network actually ends up asking pfsense.. So the host override can be returned.

                If your network is using 192.168.1.1 for dns, then setup your dns records there.

                  Yes 192.168.1.1 is PFSense
                  Maybe it require a reboot, i ll give a try

                    You said the resolver was disabled - where you using forwarder (dnsmasq) If so then the host override would be setup there and not in the resolver (unbound). Both forwarder and resolver allow for host overrides. Set the override in whichever one your using.

                    You only can have either or running forwarder or resolver. You can not run both listening on 53.

                    A reboot is not required that is for sure.. But you may have issue with local caching on the client, so you would have to flush the local dns cache of whatever client your testing from.

                      Thanks again for the help!

                      Forwarder & Resolver (Now changed to enabled) was disabled

                      It seems i am using the default cache (so it should be flushed with reboot)

                      systemd-resolve --flush-caches
                      Failed to flush caches: Unit dbus-org.freedesktop.resolve1.service not found.
                      

                      After reboot result is the same

                      any idea ?

                        Huh? You can not use both at the same time.. You run into a race condition.. Which one are you using? Place your host override in the one your using.. They both allow for overrides.

                        Do a directed query to pfsense to validate it returns your records you put in host override..
