Koszek >Release: 9.0-BETA3 >Organization: FreeBSD.org >Environment: 9.0-BETA3 >Description: I don't get ipfw(1) manual's: ipfw add nat 123 all from any to any What typical user wants is to add NAT (aka "Leeenux masquerade") for 2nd/3rd computer. We show complex cases of NAT usage in EXAMPLES section, but don't show the simple, most popular case: ipfw nat 123 config ip ADDR log ipfw add 20 nat 123 ip from any to ADDR ipfw add 10 nat 123 ip from 10.0.0.0/24 to any I think this (or similar) should be in a man page ready for copy&paste with no thinking. I had to Google around: http://linuxconfig.net/manual-howto/ipfw-nat-on-freebsd-7.html >How-To-Repeat: man ipfw /EXAMPLES >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
