      Hi all.

      I use 2.1.5(i386),everything works perfectly.
      After auto update to 2.2(without any installed packages) i dоn't have access to may web server any more from outside network.
      From inside network webserver is reacheble through IP:192.168.2.160
      There is a one single rule for webserver in NAT with which worked on 2.1.5

      NAT:Port Forward:

      Firewall: Rules:

      I tried with clean install 2.2 ->restore configuration,no changes
      What am i missing?

        Hi,

        I tried the same thing on my pfSEnse 2.2.
        First, it didn't work …. because the WAN firewall rule (auto-added when making the NAT rule) was added at the bottom of the firewall-rule-list, just after 2 "block all" rules.
        Moving the firewall WAN rule to the top did it for me.
        I could access the Web interface from the 'outside'.

        No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
        Edit : and where are the logs ??

          Assuming the WAN IP in question is the IP you're using to access the forum, it works fine. If I browse there, I get a "Welcome to nginx" page.

            How many people would have to visit that to totally make his web GUI completely unresponsive for him?

            I always wonder about this.  Would it take a DDOS effort or just like 10 guys going to the site and pressing refresh…  refresh...  repeatedly

              10x cmb
              how I succeeded:
              *moving the firewall WAN rule to the top/down(which makes no sense to me)- not working
              *delete/recreate rule in NAT - same result
              *change admin access port  from 80 to 8080,create rule in NAT(without moving anything)…..working  8)

              just for the record:
              i don't know how,but if i change again admin access port from 8080 to 80,web server continues to be accessible from 'outside'

              anyway,thanks for help,i appreciate it.
              -in 2.2 i lost startup/shutdown/login beep
