| A Network Address Translation Daemon for FreeBSD |
| |
| |
| 1. 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 <cm@linktel.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. FTP SITES FOR NATD |
| |
| This package is available at ftp://ftp.suutari.iki.fi/pub/natd. |
| |
