natd on rl0.

No, only rl0 talks to the ADSL 'modem' (which has my FreeBSD router in 
the DMZ to avoid double-NAT translation).

Yes, a Windows machine.

I have BIND running, but I'm not sure what you mean by 'mapped away 
sping hosts'.

The rules in my set actually all say 'in recv' and 'out xmit' but for 
some reason the security log file converts all of those to 'via'. I 
can't explain why.

I don't think so (except localhost). See my ruleset below (posted due to 
great demand).

Uhmmm... not sure. I'm using IPFW and natd and using the 'divert natd' 
lines in the ruleset.

Do you mean am I using keep-state rules to allow packets to certain 
ports [yes], or do you mean am I using the divert action to certain 
ports [no]?

Here they are. They are almost exactly the same as the ruleset posted by 
someone to this list a few days ago, just with some lines commented out, 
all 'via' replaced with 'recv' or 'xmit', and a few additional deny 
rules to stop Microsoft-vulnerability probing on ports 135 and 445 
(which I was getting a huge number of).
