Does it? Where did I say that? Actually, I think I found what you mean at http://www.freebsddiary.com/freebsd/ipfw.htm ### 4. Configure your interface Make sure your network cards are already configured. Sorry, but I don't cover that here. If you're using ppp, make sure you start ppp before running natd. ### Actually, I don't know what I was talking about there. As I said before, I've never used PPP, so the *only* explanation I have is that someone suggested that to me. However, as I usually indicate such references within the text, I'm unsure of that explanation. Sorry. Hopefully someone else can help with this. -- Dan Langille The FreeBSD Diary http://www.FreeBSDDiary.com/freebsd To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
