Default Simple Firewall with PF

Hi, this thread could fit into many different forums here, please move it if it will suit somewhere else better

I am trying to set up my laptop(PC-BSD 7.0) to act as a router allowing my eee running OpenBSD to connect to my university wireless network.

The uni network use a WPA-Enterprise network, that isnt supported by openbsd yet, but i have working with the PC-BSD laptop. The network uses a proxy for http connections, but this might also effect other traffic I havent found a conclusive result yet.

I have two network interfaces rum0(connects to uni wireless) and bge0 (to connect to the OpenBSD machine).

I am not entirely sure the steps i need to set this up, so far i have gotten a basic pf.conf together(mostly gleamed for the book of PF), but with this config the PC-BSD machine cannot get any connection to the outside world.

Code:
ext_if = "rum0"         ##Macro for uniwireless network
int_if = "bge0"         ##Macro for openbsd network
localnet = $int_if:network
client_out = "{ssh, domain, auth, nntp,http,\
                https,2628,5999,8000,8080}"
udp_services = "{domain}"
icmp_types = "{ echoreq,unreach }"

nat on $ext_if from $localnet to any -> ($ext_if)

block all

pass quick inet proto {tcp, udp} from $localnet to any port $udp_services
pass log inet proto icmp all icmp-type $icmp_types
pass inet proto tcp from $localnet to any port $client_out
Any help with getting this connection up and running is much appreciated

Do you have forwarding enabled?

sysctl net.inet.ip.forwarding should be 1.

The sysctl wasn't set, thanks for that. My issue is that i cannot get DNS to resolve with that PF rule set, its probably just my lack of knowledge, am i missing something obvious?

I'm not sure how new PF is on PC-BSD. When you run pfctl -s rules, do you see stuff like flags S/SA and keep state in them? If not, you will have to add them, especially the keep state directives. Add 'log' to the block all rule and run a tcpdump on pflog0 to see what actually gets blocked (you'll have to take 'log' out of that pass rule, or it'll confuse you)..

P.S. add set skip on lo0 - things may break without it; if you trust everything on your local network, add set skip on bge0 as well.
