No acces on linux system but on windows works perfectly

Gambakoker

Hi there,

I'm using pfSense for a firewall project and it's working perfect for filtering etc. but I have a problem with one thing: I can't connect to either pfSense nor the firewall on the network when there is a cisco switch between my laptop and pfsense and when i connect the laptop directly on the lan interface it works. It only occurs when i'm on my linux mint 8 installation and not when i'm on my windows disk.

Anyone any idea's?

this is a little too vague :( can you give more details? a network map/description?

Yes ofcourse sorry.
This is a network scheme of the network: http://img517.imageshack.us/img517/3914/networkexample.jpg
In the switch is everything default,
Windows is windows 7
Linux laptop contains linux mint 8 and on second disk windows 7 (where internet and firewall connection works) this is installed on second drive, nearly there

network: 192.168.2.0
ip adres def. gateway: 192.168.2.1
Server ip: 192.168.2.2
DHCP range: 192.168.2.10 - 192.168.2.245

Firewall pfsense rules:
block all traffic
allow port 80
allow port 53
allow port 443
allow icmp
allow port 137 and 138

firewall is reachable can be connected by a special port xx93 and has a ssl certificate.

If you need anymore info ask, because i'm really lost here :P
