Okay, I've been looking and looking for duplicate natd's.
I have the /etc/rc.conf which has natd stuff below, and the only
other place I see it is in ipfw.
I was able to change my rc and use /etc/rc.d/natd start and that
works. Which is better as it does not require me to reload my
firewall rules.
I still don't know why natd refuses to start the first time when
called from ipfw.
I have no rc.conf.local
