Quick update here everyone.

Well, im not sure exactly what the issue was but I resolved it.
Basically, I backed up my old nat.conf file and created a new nat.conf from
scratch. (I use vi)

This is all I added in my nat.conf file:

#declare interfaces
ext_if = "dc0"

nat on $ext_if from 192.168.1.0/24 to any -> $ext_if

I dont receive a error now when I run pfctl -N /etc/nat.conf !! woo hoo!

However, i've run into my next snag.

My internal LAN pc's can ping my gateway, however, I cant seem to ping out
to the internet. I get destination unreachable. It's a IP that does reply as
double checked earlier today. (From my work)

Now I need to figure out whats going on.

Any suggestions on where to begin?

I appreciate everyones input. Really did get me through this.

Jason

Hello Daniel.

Quick question within regards to the command that you suggest I run.

Dont mean to sound like a complete idiot, but what am I exactly looking for
here?

I see the output, im just trying to decypher it now.

Thanks again.

Jason

That looks fine and should load. The only explanation I can think of is
that you have some non-printable characters in there, like a trailing
carriage-return (introduced by editing with a foreign editor).

Run

  head -n 8 /etc/nat.conf | tail -n 1 | hexdump -C

to verify.
