      @halfhidden OK so then you want to set your external DNS records for your domain so that cloud.lescudjack.co.uk resolves to your pfSense WAN IP. From there, you create a port-forward that forwards traffic on a specific port to a server on your LAN.

        ;; ANSWER SECTION:
        cloud.lescudjack.co.uk. 86400 IN A 78.33.200.127

        Is that pfsense public IP?

        Not sure what to make of this

        but instead of seeing the vpn as expected

        Are you trying to route traffic through a vpn to get to your port forwards?

        Where are you port forwards and firewall rules? Yeah if you open up your firewall on wan and hit its IP from the public on the right port the gui will be served.

          Hi guys,
          Thanks. I haven't created any rules to port forward traffic from the WAN to Lan (Not sure what the hell I was thinking).

          Yes PfSence won't be public facing once I re-set up the lab. I don't see any benefit from having web access to either Esxi or PfSense, so I'll make sure that they are set up on private ip's when I do set it all back up.

          I do have to thank you both for helping. I can't believe how dumb I've been with this.
