As I wrote in my 1st message the following statements may produce the problem:

nat inet from !tun2-address to any port = http -> tun2-address
nat on tun0 inet from <intern> to any -> tun0-address
....
pass out quick on tun0 route-to (tun2 tun2-peer) inet from tun2-address to any keep state
pass out quick on tun2 route-to (tun0 tun0-peer) inet from tun0-address to any keep state


The reason for this setup is, that I want to use policy based routing. The http port ist an easy 
to test example. I have 2 DSL/pppoe connections with NAT and tun0 has the default route 
assigned. I want
- route some traffic from LAN (NATed) to tun2
- route some traffic from gateway to tun2

May be there is a better solution?

Regards,
  Frank
