YOU WERE RIGHT. (However...) I went back an looked through LINT and copied related options (IPFIREWALL, IP6FIREWALL, etc) and the boot messages looked quite different. Now I get continual messages like this: natd [nnn] failed to write packet back (Permission denied) I'm concerned about firewall safety, fer sure. Reading the option names and the allow/deny statements in re.firewall, I can see some sense in them, with the execption of some of the keywords like {oip}, etc. CAN YOU RECOMMEND a place on the Net or a particular book that might help me? Can you give me a quick fix for the natd problem above?
