 thanks for the suggestions, ideas and info everyone...

 i'll start by looking more closely at the source code and looking at what
kqueue and kevents actually are (!) before i dive in and change natd.

 (for all those who suggested ipf/ipnat - yes i know, but unfortunately natd
if part of a bigger product which would have to be rewritten - i did think
that there would'nt be a problem with doing the NATing in ipnat and the
firewalling in ipfw but i understand that ipnat is done _before_ ipfw sees
that packets (which makes sense) and this is the wrong way around for us)

 i'll let you all know how i get on - and post any difficult questions

 again - thanks

tariq
