      As the title states, I am hosting a few development sites and http/https pages. Everything can be accessed properly from the WAN (means external DNS and NAT'ing is done properly) however I can not access from anywhere on the LAN across all six of my subnets.

      I had it working a year ago but then I moved and now I'm in a bit of a time crunch. Is it something stupid I'm forgetting and could someone please point me in the right direction?

      Cheers!

        Either turn on NAT reflection, or use split DNS - on pfSense DNS forwarder define host overrides that give the internal LAN IP of the various server/s in response to internal requests for the name.

        As the Greek philosopher Isosceles used to say, "There are 3 sides to every triangle."
