Iīm running ADSL and tun0 doesnīt seem to be initialized when the firewall rules are being applied and when natd ist started. Iīm getting an error socket not available or cannot bind or something like that early on tun0. Also sendmail (kqread) hangs very long after it times out due to DNS not being available. When I start natd manually after the system has come up that way (with the DNS timeouts and all that) it works fine but this situation is not tolerable in the long run since manual intervention isnīt possible in all situations. Iīd appreciate some help here. Thank you. -- Chris Christoph P. U. Kukulies kuku_at_kukulies.org -
