But that section just refers you on to natd, which is what I know absolutely nothing about. When I added both of those to my kernel (and maybe I added the line in /etc/rc.firewall ?) I ended up with a kernel that couldn't handle the network at all. If you can provide the ipfw/natd rules and where to put them, I'd greatly appreciate it. hawk -- Prof. Richard E.
