+++ J.D. Bronson [freebsd] [02-03-05 16:57 -0600]:
| net.inet.ip.fastforwarding
| or
| net.inet.ip.forwarding

AFAIK, its net.inet.ip.forwarding

| 
| 
| Can someone tell me which is appropriate when FreeBSD 5.4-PRE is used as a 
| router running pf with built in NAT ?
| 
| And what is the difference on these 2 options?
| 
| Lastly, do I still need to set
| gateway_enable="YES" ?
| (or does that do the same thing as sysctl commands above)

Yes. Its the same thing.
