Q: NAT from KB/ht5215 broken in ML 10.8.2?
We've been using NAT with Lion Server and ML Server as described in the KB article but this config has broken on of our servers with the 10.8.2 / Server 2.1 (and 2.1.1) update. Basically, the pfctl lauch daemon won't load (exited with code: 1). Has anyone else seen this in their setups? Better yet, has anyone found a solution to this problem?
Here's a bit of diagnostics with pfctl:
bash-3.2# pfctl -vvv -s info No ALTQ support in kernel ALTQ related functions disabled Status: Disabled Debug: Urgent Hostid: 0xc1eda31d Checksum: 0x00000000000000000000000000000000 State Table Total Rate current entries 0 searches 0 0.0/s inserts 0 0.0/s removals 0 0.0/s Source Tracking Table current entries 0 searches 0 0.0/s inserts 0 0.0/s removals 0 0.0/s Counters match 0 0.0/s bad-offset 0 0.0/s fragment 0 0.0/s short 0 0.0/s normalize 0 0.0/s memory 0 0.0/s bad-timestamp 0 0.0/s congestion 0 0.0/s ip-option 0 0.0/s proto-cksum 0 0.0/s state-mismatch 0 0.0/s state-insert 0 0.0/s state-limit 0 0.0/s src-limit 0 0.0/s synproxy 0 0.0/s dummynet 0 0.0/s Limit Counters max states per rule 0 0.0/s max-src-states 0 0.0/s max-src-nodes 0 0.0/s max-src-conn 0 0.0/s max-src-conn-rate 0 0.0/s overload table insertion 0 0.0/s overload flush states 0 0.0/s

launchctl doesn't throw an error when you unload then reload /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.pfctl.plist but it does write an error to syslog:
Sep 27 13:50:37 localhost com.apple.launchd[1] (com.apple.pfctl[47]): Exited with code: 1
Any ideas? This was working with 10.8.1 but broke with 10.8.2 and Server.app 2.1.x
Thanks,
Miles
