FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE-p13 - GW/router/NAT/FW/Caching DNS - Bind-8.3x + IPFW(8) Have just setup the above to route mainly for a LAN (in place of hardware router), but natd runs non-stop as per TOP(1) and keeps eating up the CPU until it crashes. Takes about 1/2 hour to eat up the resources and requires a reboot -- then the problem just starts over again. Typical firewall setup used in a number of our servers which diverts to port 8668 and then the packets are redirected to limited ports on the various workstations. NATD acts like it is in a loop and rehashing the packets over and over. There is a very light load of packets flowing over the rl0 external interface. Natd is loaded in usual way. Have killed off most other daemons, but NATD keeps running as shown by TOP(1) Never seen this before. Would appreciate any ideas on how to fix it.... Thanks in advance. Best regards, Jack L.
