For the archives: Found my problem. Te firewall_type option is case sensitive -- and "OPEN" is supposed to be lowercase.

I'm trying to setup a gateway/firewall on my network in a similar setup to that shown in the in the handbook diagram at http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/network-natd.html . I've followed what I can figure out, adding the following to my /etc/rc.conf gateway_enable="YES" firewall_enable="YES" firewall_type="OPEN" natd_enabl="YES" natd_interface="rl0" My understanding is that in FreeBSD 6 it's not necessary to recompile a kernal with IPFIREWALL and IPDIVERT, but appropriate modules will be loaded automatically. That said, the NAT and gateway stuff doesn't seem to be working properly, leastwise not when I try to connect from my Ubuntu Linux client (See thread here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224843) What all am I supposed to do to setup this gateway?
