The new FreeBSD-8.0-STABLE server is currently not r= unning a firewall. I have that taken care of with the other FreeBSD router = 10.0.0.253. =A0 In this other router I do have IPFW running and have assigned natd_interfac= e=3D"rl0". My new server is doing a make buildworld right now so I can't te= st this right away, but it sounds like I need to add natd_interface=3D"wlan= 0" in the /etc/rc.conf file.
