Now I try to configure ng_nat. I use example from man ng_nat. Clients machine can ping inet hosts, but nothing loaded by http or ftp or other tcp protocol. On server packet NATed by not real ip. On other server under Linux this packet again NATed by real ip. What can I do with this? Eric Anderson пишет: > Patrik Forsberg wrote: > >>> I am ISP admin.
