YOU WERE RIGHT. (However...) I went back an looked through LINT and copied related
options (IPFIREWALL, IP6FIREWALL, etc) and the boot messages looked quite different.
Now I get continual messages like this:
natd [nnn] failed to write packet back (Permission denied)
I'm concerned about firewall safety, fer sure. Reading the option names and the
allow/deny statements in re.firewall, I can see some sense in them, with the
execption of some of the keywords like {oip}, etc. CAN YOU RECOMMEND a place on
the Net or a particular book that might help me? Can you give me a quick fix for the
natd problem above?
