KAME NATPT is still under developing. It's unstable and cannot not translate all type of packets yet, for example it cannot handle IPv4 fragmented packet with DF bit now. Moreover there is possibility that its API might changes. We need to provide backward compatibility when the API is changed. I think -current merging need more couple of months. --- Munechika SUMIKAWA @ KAME Project / FreeBSD.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
