      I have a 1:1 NAT set up on a WAN address.  My problem is that when the packet traverses the pfsense box, it is keeping the original source IP address and I need it to be natted to the pfsense LAN interface IP so that the internal server knows how to route it back out.  The pfsense is not the default gateway for the LAN.
      A sniff at the server shows the packets arriving with the original client IP instead of the pfsense IP.  Any ideas would be welcome.

        1:1 NAT on WAN wouldn't help for that.

        You need to be on manual outbound NAT, and have an outbound NAT rule (or maybe 1:1) on LAN in order to translate in the way you want.
