I would like to do NAT with a freebsd box. The box is a spare 486 dx2/50 with 40 MB that I have laying around. What I would like to know is: Between natd and ipfilter, which is faster, has lower memory footprint , and uses the least amount of cpu? This is important to me because I also plan on running a small webserver on the same box and a small ( 1 host ) domain on the box. Thanks, C.P.
