No, to get NAT working you need the firewall up. You need the divert rule working. However, during testing, firewall_enable="YES" firewall_type="OPEN" The NAT settings you'll need, natd_enable="YES" natd_interface="fxp0" Make sure to get the open firewall working, then try adding rules. > Change NIC types to suite and these are the lines required to > setup a gateway machine. > > network_interfaces="fxp0 fxp1 lo0" > ifconfig_fxp0="inet 206.16.184.7 netmask 255.255.255.0" > ifconfig_fxp1="inet 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0" > defaultrouter="206.16.184.1" > gateway_enable="NO" > > That's it. Reboot and you'll have a working gateway. Well, I think it is pretty clear that last line needs to be, gateway_enable="YES" > Hosts on the internal network should use 192.168.1.1 for > their default gateway. Yup. -- Crist J.
