Subj : Pfsense and websockets...

My websockets refuse to connect when accessing via the dns entry.  If I use
the local IP address, they work fine.  I've been unable to find someone to
test this outside my NAT, though I am testing this from behind a VPN, so I'm
making the assumption that it's not working. I'm using websockify with
ftelnet to go from 192.168.0.4:8080 to 192.168.0.3:24.  I've temporarily set
up an ftelnet proxy, but I'd like to use my own.  I have set up a firewall
rule for the WAN to accept connect to 8080 from any IP and port per Chat GPT
suggestions. I've also set the firewall to conservative from similar
suggestions.  Any idea what I might be doing wrong?
