      Hello,

      Just upgraded to 1.2.3 RELEASE

      Basically when i do a http request to one certain customer I never get a response back. the data is reaching the customer, but no data is coming back.

      You can try this by going to http://mobile-entry.com, the site will not work as expected from behind pfsense.

      LSF in irc reported the following sites also not working: www.yr.no, www.ba.no, www.nrk.no

      The relation all these web addresses have is that they are Norwegian.

      Any clue how to proceed with this ?

        Why do you repost without any new information…... ::)

        Never the less lsf and I tried to see if I could create a setup that would fail to connect, so fare I can't.

        My setup:
        dsl pppoa not bridge (telenor/cybercity)
        cable modem (yousee)
        vlan hp 1800-G8
        em driver intel giga nic's
        pfSense only with vlan nic's
        client's winxp and ubuntu

          Hi,

          i have some extra information

          I run a cluster of pfsense

          pfsense 1: version 1.2.2 - active
          pfsense 2: version 1.2.3 - backup

          When pfsense1 is active and i put real gateway of pfsense 2 in my server, the website works.

          I do a failover from pfsense 1 to 2 and it stops working, it seems when the carp addresses are active it stops working.

          My carps are a mix of external and internal addresses

          Any clue ?

              There are some very specific circumstances that lead to this issue, and you are the only person besides lsf that has hit the bug, I believe.

              I can't even reproduce it, but it seems to be related to using VLANs on multiple interfaces and certain other settings.

              I have tried many times to reproduce it on my fully-VLAN setup and test boxes and it has always worked for me.

                  That may or may not help. It could also be a combination of hardware (NICs), switch gear, or even an ISP routing/MTU oddity.

                    I fixed the problem by disabling hardware checksum offloading.
