I'm not using natd, but ppp's built in nat feature. Here is my current ppp config: ################################################################ # PPP Configuration File ('/etc/ppp/ppp.conf') # # Default settings; These are always executed always when PPP # is invoked and apply to all system configurations. ################################################################ default: set log phase tun command set mru 1492 set mtu 1492 set ctsrts off nat enable yes nat same_ports yes nat use_sockets yes enable lqr set device PPPoE:dc1 set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 verizon: set device PPPoE:dc1 set authname MYNAME set authkey MYPASS set dial set login add default HISADDR My /etc/rc.conf contains: ppp_enable="YES" ppp_mode="ddial" ppp_nat="YES" ppp_profile="verizon" dc1 is the NIC I have connected to the DSL modem. 'nat enable yes' and 'ppp_nat="YES"' are probably redundant. I can join battlenet games via this set up without problems. I have just added the same_ports and use_sockets options based on mail from "Bezerker" , but haven't had a chance to test if they allow me to host games.
