    Since windows sharing is generally a two way protocol you might find it
    a little hard to work with NAT. The name resolution is one thing and the
    RPC based authentication is another.

    However, why would you need to NAT intranet traffic? Isnt NATing
    internet traffic enough?

    Perhaps you should use proxy-arp or not use the freebsd to route traffic
    between you and the other work stations (put in another switch).
