WHAT IS NATD ? + + This is a simple daemon based on FreeBSD divert sockets + which performs network address translation (or masquerading) + for IP packets (see related RFCs 1631 and 1918). + It is based on packet aliasing package (see README.alias) + written by Charles Mott (cmott@srv.net). + + This package works with any network interface (doesn't have + to be ppp). I run it on a computer having two ethernet cards, + one connected to internet and the other one to local network. + +2. GETTING IT RUNNING + + 1) Get FreeBSD 2.2 - I think the divert sockets are + not available on earlier versions, + + 2) Compile this software by executing "make". + + 3) Install the software by executing "make install". + + 4) See man natd for further instructions. + +3.
