Thanks Chuck,
Add:
options IPFIREWALL_FORWARD
options IPFIREWALL_DIVERT
...to your kernel config file. This is mostly documented here:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/firewalls-ipfw.html
Thanks for the tip. Unfortunately, the IPFIREWALL_FORWARD was not mentioned
in the link you gave me (which I visited prior). Otherwise I wouldn't have
lost 2 nights working on this. But that's over now. I'm working on another
stumbling block on ipfw.
Also note that ipfw forwarding alone may not do what you expect, unless
you make special efforts on the machine being forwarded to, to recognize
the additional IP addresses. You might find using the redirect_host or
redirect_port directives to natd more appropriate for your purposes.
Thanks for your concern. For my purposes, it's only a gateway. The NAT
router is further down the road. Appreciate the tip anyway.
