The devel of NAT is being done by a local "Rusty" Russell
devel has come to the stage where it is usable and now final
calls have come from linus for the kernel hacks to be in for the
new 2.4 kernel, so what you get now is pretty much the finished
product as it will appear (with some debugging) in 2.4.
but devel will continue of course.

To make it work you need 2.3.45 and the latest version of
netfilter, this supplies iptables (replaces ipchains) and
ipnatctl. download and docs from
http://netfilter.kernelnotes.org/

Kind regards
