No matter where in /etc/rc.conf I place ifconfig_wi0="DHCP" natd starts before seeing the interface and I get this in my dmesg: Firewall rules loaded, starting divert daemons: natd natd: unknown interface name wi0 So, after I login and become root, I type in: natd -n wi0 and all proceeds fine. natd is happy, the intranet is happy, the Mac is happy, I am happy. So the obvious question is: Where can I put the command to start natd so that it starts after wi0 is up? I'm going to see if /usr/local/etc/rc.d is a workable location, but I thought I'd ask here first, in case there is something at work of which I am unaware.
