remote restart of natd

2004-03-16 Thread RYAN vAN GINNEKEN
Is there a way to restart natd remotely without disconnecting myself 
using freebsd 4.9 stable.  Have been playing around with the natd.conf 
file and would like to see if it works or not and do not want to reboot 
EVER.!! or be disconnected

If I'm doing this, or testing the firewall while not at the box, I
usually set up something in cron or at(1) to do something like:

/sbin/ipfw add 10 allow all from [my IP address] to [the box's ip address] 

Set it up to go off in a few minutes, and that should give you a backup
plan.
