I don't have natd running either. > Figure that out. I may be that squid is doing some nat function. Do all win boxes use squid for their internet traffic and is squid located on the nat router? If so then the win boxes don't need nat or even for the route to have ip forwarding enabled since all that happens is they open a connection to squid and tell it to get a webpage, then squid opens a new connection to talk to the website. So the traffic on the internet is really generated by the router which isn't really routing at all. > > -- > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" -- I sense much NT in you.
