ICMP Packets go to only one side

Hello,

There is FreeBSD 7.4 server with 3 ethernet cards: fxp0, fxp1, age0 and two routers: D-Link DI-704P and ASUS Mobile WiMAX/Wi-Fi Center, with two different static external IP addresses. In attachment you can find network scheme.

At first, task was connect two ineternet channels and realize load-balancing between them. But, when I assembled all, I find out that server didn't work like gateway. In local network internet is not accessible. From local PC's all, that are located in outside of the age0 interface, is not accessible, except 192.168.1.2 and 192.168.2.2, but NOT 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.2.1 (LAN's of routers).

Thereby, now problem is to assemble gateway on the basis of FreeBSD 7.4. I temprorary not use fxp1 for simplify task and work with one internet channel but in LAN any internet addresses not accessible. I made tcpdump of fxp0 and age0 interfaces when ping -t 8.8.8.8 was running on Windows machine from 169.254.107.0/24. I found out that ICMP requests captured on age0 then they forward to fxp0 and go throuht NAT, address of src suscessfully modify and then go to router D-Link. I also used instead of D-Link router one of Windows machines with Wireshark and tried capture packets (IP address of this Windows machine I set to 192.168.1.1 like D-Link). Packets successfully was captured with right headers, so NAT working on FreeBSD. Tcpdump on fxp0 capture ICMP requests and ICMP replies. But on age0 tcpdump capture ONLY ICMP requests and packets don't reach from fxp0->age0 backwards!

This looks like NAT modify IP addresses only in one side. But I try pf+nat and ipfw+natd - the results is same. Server don't work with reverse forwarding. Firewall on Windows machine is turned off. From server I can ping any computer in LAN and Internet. Packets is lost inside server but how to find out where?

And I rebuilt kernel and world at last summer From FreeBSD 6.2->7.2->7.4 maybe this fact will helpful. Kernel options in attachment

Thanks! It works! I modified 169.254.107/24 to 192.168.0/24 for LAN and packets wonderfully became to go between interfaces!

And change the pf.conf:
Code:
nat on fxp0 from any to any -> (fxp0)

Why not
Code:
nat on fxp0 from 192.168.0.0/24 to any -> (fxp0)
nat on fxp1 from 192.168.0.0/24 to any -> (fxp1)
?

Now internet is working from LAN! But on server NetBIOS-names resolve to old IP LAN adresses 169.254.107.0/24 :( I modified and restarted dhcp.conf, smb.conf.

Code:
# nmblookup A0600010001
querying A0600010001 on 192.168.0.255
querying A0600010001 on 192.168.1.255
[B]192.168.0.79[/B] A0600010001<00>
# ping A0600010001
PING A0600010001.kim-sh.ru ([B]169.254.107.34[/B]): 56 data bytes
 
Ping uses DNS hostnames, it doesn't care about netbios names.
 
Did you perhaps add it to your /etc/hosts file? Or do you use a DNS server?
 
I use DNS server and I've modified file of zones and restart server, but changes didn't take any effects.
 
There's something missing in your configuration or your registrar is not delegating your zone kim-sh.ru to your DNS servers properly:

Code:
# dig A0600010001.kim-sh.ru

; <<>> DiG 9.8.1-P1 <<>> A0600010001.kim-sh.ru
;; global options: +cmd
;; Got answer:

Did you update the zone's serial number?
 
Maybe this fact can help to solve problem. Before changing IP of LAN, I installed samba 3.4, because previous version of samba refuse to work.

Names like A0600010001.kim-sh.ru can't be accessible from the outside! Only from the local network.

I control subzone webmail.kim-sh.ru of domain kim-sh.ru, but actually our company owns the domain kim-sh.ru and all mail goes to surname@kim-sh.ru, not surname@webmail.kim-sh.ru,

If I try the command nmblookup A0600010001 then I get the proper IP address, but pinging by name doesn't work :( I tried to rndc trace and reconfigured named.conf, but this didn't give results and I returned named.conf. Then I tried to delete wins.dat from /var/db/samba34 and reloaded named. This also didn't give any result. But when I return wins.dat and named.conf ping cannot resolve name to any IP!

Problem had solved by editing file /etc/nsswitch.conf. I had added "wins" to first place of string hosts.

Thank you.
