Hi Guys,

I had a problem about traceroute. Here is my scenario:

localnetwork-->firewall/nat/openbsd-->internet

in my pf.conf

# no restriction on lan
pass quick on $int_if
# allow icmp incoming/outgoing to wan
pass quick on $ext_if inet proto icmp all

@ but this config doesn't work when i tried making a traceroute from my 
localnetwork and shows this:

$ traceroute www.google.com
traceroute: Warning: www.google.com has multiple addresses; using 64.233.169.104
traceroute to www.l.google.com (64.233.169.104), 30 hops max, 40 byte packets
 1  192.168.245.1 (192.168.245.1)  1.529 ms  4.106 ms  2.121 ms
 2  192.168.245.1 (192.168.245.1)  5.035 ms !H  2.120 ms !H  2.171 ms !H


but when i tried adding this in my pf.conf and it works when i traceroute:
pass out on $ext_if inet proto udp all

@but my question, is there another alternative on my pf syntax? if i open all 
the udp ports going outside the ext_if, is there a threat on security like DDoS 
or torrent access from localnetwork --> internet?

Thanks!


cheers,
