hi dude,

| I am running a freebsd box as a bridge between a dsl modem and the
rest
| of my internal network. I have some real and some fake IPs on the
inside.
| The real IP machines are working just fine getting to the outside
| world but the fake ones are having problems. I am running natd
(-s -u -m -n external_ethernet)
| and when I slap in the ipfw rule of


[snip]

i had the same "good time" with that... unfortunately i "understood"
that this combination
[natd + ipfw + bridge] will never work in such case like internal +
external networks via one gw with one real ip subnet and made workaround
with ipnat + ipfw + bridge :-)

anyway - this is funy sex to do... try to get some /30 subnet for your
modem<->ISP connection, take or leave some /29 or /30 subnet for servers
and you'll avoid lot's of stupid configuration problems + your
network will look like it suppose to be :-)

cheers,
Jenty
