    Hi Brent,

    About the only differences I see in your config vs. mine is that you've
    compiled NETGRAPH support directly into
    the kernel (but it's my understanding that this was no longer explicitly
    needed), and you manually configure the
    ed1 interface in rc.conf. I also notice that you specify NOT to use ARP
    (-arp) when you config the interface,
    which I don't specify (and the default is to use ARP).

    I'll try making the kernel change and the interface config change and see if
    makes a difference.

    The second doc is basically exactly what I used to do when I used plain-old
    Ethernet. However, as the doc
    states, "If the outside interface is ... a PPP-over-Ethernet (PPPoE) DSL
    connection, use ppp(8)'s NAT facility
    instead", which is what I'm trying to do ;-)

    NAT over plain-old Ethernet works just fine for me.

    Thanks again,

    Sean.
