I can't find your original rules: I assume that a) dc0 *is* your external interface (typos are a common source of errors, though I don't think that's the case here) b) you have an ifconfig_dc0="DHCP" line in /etc/rc.conf. natd_enable="YES" # Natd packet translation natd_flags="-log -log_denied -dynamic" natd_interface="sis0" ifconfig_sis0="DHCP" # External network At startup I get a message like: Jun 18 10:38:58 natd[701]: Aliasing to 0.0.0.0, mtu 1500 bytes just after the firewall rules start up. The divert rule in my firewall says: ipfw add divert natd all from any to any via ${natd_interface} If you have static rules rather than a script then you need ${natd_interface} to be replaced directly with dc0. The other things to check, I guess, are that those are the *only* natd lines you have: egrep natd /etc/rc.conf /etc.rc.conf.local --Alex
