      Current setup is WAN (.157) and LAN interface.

      WAN has a Virtual IP of .158.

      Have set 1:1 NAT to point .158 to an internal 192.168.5.5 address.

      Have rules on the WAN interface allowing access to port 443 for .158 -> internal IP.

      Have NO/zero NAT Port Forwards set up.

      Outside users can connect to .158 and get the internal web server.

      Internal users try to hit the external IP, the pfsense -apparently- is redirecting the request correctly.  The firewall log shows a connection from user1 to 192.168.5.5 with TCP:S.  If we review the web server log, it shows a connection from the IP address of the FIREWALL, not the user1 IP address.

      Then the connection never goes any further.

      I have UNCHECKED
      ->Advanced
        -> NAT
            -> Disable NAT Reflection for port forwards

      I have UNCHECKED
      ->Advanced
        -> NAT
            ->

      ->Advanced
        -> NAT
            -> Disable NAT Reflection for 1:1 NAT

      I have CHECKED
      ->Advanced
        -> NAT
            -> Automatically create outbound NAT rules which assist inbound NAT rules that direct traffic back out to the same subnet it originated from.

      I have tried deleting the 1:1 NAT to see if it would "create" the outbound NAT rules automatically.  No dice.  I've tried rebooting different times in between steps.  No dice.

      I don't know what to check or how to proceed further with this.

      What am I missing, what can I change, or how can I further debug this?

      Thanks!

          It was the first beta that worked for me regarding NAT reflection….
