>From what you copied/explained, natd_enable will load ipdivert.ko and the handbook suggests that you load ipdivert.ko, so either way the module will be loaded. I'd go with the ipfw_enable and natd_enable as it may also do other needed things than just loading a kernel module. best regards, Olivier > My inclination is to follow the handbook, but I thought I should first > check to ensure the handbook is up-to-date. > > Thank you, > > Chris > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org" _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
