Hmmm....  I certainly found it useful; perhaps the above warrants some
phrasing that restricts the scope to the situation you were addressing.

Case in point:  I wasn't using PPP -- I was setting up a nat/ipfw
firewall for a DSL connection (with a static IP address)....

So in my case, it was quite helpful... and I'll take this opportunity to
extend a hearty "thank you!" to the folks who contributed to natd (and
ipfw).

Cheers,
