Roger Merritt wrote: I'm thoroughly puzzled. Over the weekend I transferred my FreeBSD system to a new hard drive. Through laziness I didn't follow the instructions and had to make a completely new install. Everything now seems to be working the way it should, Apache, MySQL, PHP, syslog, Samba -- except natd. Everything starts on boot-up as it should -- except natd. I can start it manually from the command line after booting up and logging in and it works fine, but I can't tell what's going on that it's failing to start. My /etc/rc.conf contains the following: # This file now contains just the overrides from /etc/defaults/rc.conf. defaultrouter="203.151.134.1" gateway_enable="YES" hostname="poppy.international.stjohn.ac.th" ifconfig_ed0="inet 10.3.16.125 netmask 255.255.255.0" ifconfig_ed1="inet 203.151.134.104 netmask 255.255.255.0" router_enable="YES" firewall_enable="YES" firewall_type="OPEN" firewall_quiet="YES" natd_enable="YES" natd_interface="ed1" ipv6_enable="YES" linux_enable="YES" moused_enable="YES" moused_port="/dev/sysmouse" moused_type="auto" screen="daemon" nfs_client_enable="YES" sshd_enable="YES" What can I do to get some indication of where the problem is?
Try to comment the line natd_enable="YES" and then add a new line at the end of rc.conf: /etc/rc.d/natd start if this doesn't work, try to put natd_flags="" in your rc.conf and plesase check your ipfw rule for nat it should be something like this: (with natd_flags="") ipfw -q add divert natd all from any to any via your_public_interface Good luck!! _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
