If the parameter is in fact incorrect,=20 then it was a coincidence that their end started working right after I added that line. I took it out (but haven't rebooted) just to check. My firewall is open. I run very few services available to public and those that run are secured with tcp rules (qmail) and hosts.allow (ssh, etc). Bill: Sorry, forgot natd. I modified rc.conf to this: natd_flags=3D"-dynamic -f /etc/natd.conf" and restarted the process. Perhaps that will help with part of it. natd.conf: n sis0 unregistered_only use_sockets yes same_ports yes log yes Thanks to all for the corrections thus far. -Derrick
