Killing natd and restarting it fixes the problem for a few more days. Natd also has core dumped. The core dump reports "no stack", so I don't know where. This machine runs a web server, real audio server, pop, etc, so it can get heavily loaded at times. I'm runing natd and ipfw as a firewall for a small LAN of 3 machines. I saw this problem listed in the mail archives, but no solution was offered. What's up with this?
