      I am running pfSense 1.2.3 as a firewall and OpenVPN server for remote users (road warriors) with laptops.

      I want to route traffic bound for the internet from the remote users over the VPN and out.  I see how this is done, but it also seems to require that I turn off Automatic Outbound NAT and create my own NAT rules.

      In order to avoid any gotchas, I want to see what rules AON has created so I can reproduce them.  Is that possible?  If not, is there a basic NAT ruleset that should be implemented?

      (As a side question, does the latest release of pfSense permit OpenVPN traffic via AON, or does it also require manual NAT?)

      Thanks.

        I'm not sure about 1.2.3, but if you activate AON in 2.0 you will see all of the auto-created rules and NAT function won't change until you start editing those rules.
