Hack can be applied to /etc/rc.d/natd, and better do it locally, not in FreeBSD svn. Example for such hack that is waiting for network in rc.d script can be found here: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/net/quagga/files/quagga.sh.in?rev=1.18 See how $quagga_wait_for works. -- Totus tuus, Glebius.
