All, Per my earlier email, this problem seemed to be caused by the interaction of natd and ipfw. It really looks like that natd reports this error when it cannot write the packet back for any reason - duh - sometimes I really overstate the obvious. I have seen two different scenerios for the error, 1. ipfw rules on the natd interface that deny the packet. 2. routed reports that the route is down and won't accept the packet. (as shown below in the attached post) this error is generally a slightly different message. Host down, network unreachable. Kasey beemern@ksu.edu wrote: > > "Mr. Kasey A.
