The webserver can now be successfully accessed from the outside world. Here's the right configuration we used.
The right adapters for the WAN and LAN interfaces.
Adapter card type: Intel PRO/1000 MT Desktop
DHCP server gives IPs in the range 192.168.1.100/199 .
Currently there are two machines connected, our webserver and a machine representing a client.
Now let's take a look at the actual port forwarding part.
So far just a simle rule was added that enables ouside access of the webserver.
Ofcourse we also need a rule that forwards the HTTP port 80 on the VirtualBox router. We do that in the Settings of our pfSense machine (Network -> Advanced -> Port Forwarding)
And here's the actual result. The webserver is reached on a machine on the external network (a.k.a. the Internet).
