What? Oh my god...
So, what can I do in PF-side?

My potential VPN users have the client configured in your notebook, and
I think that they always will need to connect trough NAT (modem,
routers, netfilter, pf...) and I will have always this problem? :-/

So, I think that I'll need modify my kernel/ netfilter... but this
information I'll look at netfilter mailing, thank you!
