      I just installed pfsense. I have my lan 10.134.1.0 Pfsense 10.134.1.249

      My WAN 172.25.1.2
      MY opt 172.25.1.10

      On my lan side all shares stopped working except to and from the servers.

      For instance my C_drive is no longer viewable on any other windows xp box

      Does pfsense kill the NetBIOS request on the Lan side?

      Is there any way to stop it?

      Thanks,

          Are your OPT and WAN bridged?

          Are you trying to find network shares via "My Network Places"?
          This will not work over a router.
          You need to access the network-share via IP directly.

            Lan and wan are bridged. I just turned off the advanced option "Bypass firewall rules for traffic on the same interface" Did not help.

            What I have found out is that my Mcafee firewalls on our clients have started treating its own subnet as an un-trusted network. I do not know if this is a coincidence it happened the same day I installed the pfsense firewall. To fix it I had to manually put in the IP address for the trusted network on each machine.
