In my webpages, there should be a reference to 
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?natd, but there wasn't.  I've since 
added it to the website.  Have a look at that to see how to set this up.

Does that make sense?

edo is the outside world, for an ethernet card (NE2000) or similar.

I didn't have to do anything to the other machines on my subnet except
make my freebsd box their default gateway.

I don't know what you mean.

Your freebsd box should have two network cards.  ed0 is to your ISP and 
is the IP number assigned to you by them.  ed1 is connected to your subnet 
and determined by you.  All of your machines will refer to the IP assigned to ed1 
and use that as their gateway.

Does this make sense?
