Thing is, I'm trying to get a better understanding of how natd interacts with IPFW. There's a LOT more going on than what's shown in your diagram. Don't get me wrong, your web page looks like it would be helpful to lots of people -- it just doesn't go deep enough for me. Ruslan Ermilov suggested I pay closer attention to the divert(4) web page. I'll take a look again... Ciao, Sheldon. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
