FW Blocks GRE/TCP when using PPTP WAN

sharonna

Hi

I Just installed a fresh pfsense 2.0.1 i386 with multi processor kernel.
I did a fresh install no old config loaded, i set all new.
Im running it in vmware workstation 9 (setting: freebsd, 1 cpu 1 core, 4gb hdd scsi, 2x bridged to 2 real nics.)

My Scenario is:
LAN > static, 10.10.1.10/24
WAN > pptp, local adr: 10.0.0.140/24, remote adr: 10.0.0.138

These settings work perfect in pfsense 1.2

Problem:
The Firewall is blocking GRE/TCP Traffic, i can Ping google from the pfsense and the LAN PCs, but no internet traffic is going through, meaning no websites are loading.

Because i am no experts with routing and firewalls, i dont know what i schould do.
Hoping for help.

Thanks

Hi

So i searched a lot and i found a few people that have the same issue when using PPTP ADSL.

Found a workaround:

edit file
/tmp/rules.debug

edit
WAN = "{ pptp1 }"
to
WAN = "{ em1 pptp1 }"

command
pfctl -f /tmp/rules.debug
execute

It works, internet is going :)
But this workaround only lasts till a flter reload is made. Then i have do to it again.

Has anyone a permanent solution for this ?

Thanks
