      Hi,
      I have read the documentation (http://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Inbound_Load_Balancing#Lack_of_NAT_Reflection) which suggests there is a way to make NAT reflection work on the load balancer IPs, but I can't figure out what rules I'm supposed to add.
      Could anyone steer me in the right direction?
      Previous posts suggest that the best way is to use split DNS, which I already do, but there is a growing number of hosts I would need to add and pointing the hosts directly at a server IP would negate the advantage of having a load balancer in the first place…

      If it helps, our live firewall is using pfSense 1.2.3 but I am also trialing 2.0RC3 to see what other advantages it offers us.

      Thanks,
      Chris.
