http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/network-natd.html http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2011-April/229017.html Hello, Handbook section 31.9.3 suggests I should, among other things, add the line ipdivert_load="YES" to /boot/loader.conf when setting up NAT. The mailing list message linked above suggests that the handbook information is the "old way" and that the correct way is to set ipfw_enable and natd_enable in rc.conf. "Then /etc/rc.d/ipfw will load ipfw.ko, and if natd_enable is set, will invoke /etc/rc.d/natd, which loads ipdivert.ko at the right time." My inclination is to follow the handbook, but I thought I should first check to ensure the handbook is up-to-date. Thank you, Chris
