As I mentioned, /etc/natd.conf won't exist.  From my previous message:

Please read my previous message in full :-)

Perhaps you should install the man pages, then :-)  Run /stand/sysinstall
as root and go the post-install config menu, select distributions, and
grab the man pages distribution.  You'll need some small amount of free
space under /usr (on my oldest system, which is 3.2-R, the man pages and
the cat man pages for the base system occupy about 13 megs.  You can omit
the cat man pages, you can squeeze some extra space out if you're really
short).  I suspect the man pages might have been slightly smaller in
2.2.7, but I don't recall.

You may want to consider upgrading the 2.2.7 machine; there have been
quite a few enhancements to the system since then.  3.4 is quite rock
solid.
