>Description:
When using the new ipfilter code in /etc/rc.network, ipnat
prints out some diagnostics which messes up the screen during boot.
>How-To-Repeat:
Set ipnat_enable to YES and watch screen during boot.
>Fix:
One possibility might be the following patch. It makes it possible
to use
ipnat_flags=">/dev/null"
in order to redirect the output ti /dev/null.
