I am running natd on a FreeBSD box with IPFIREWALL and IPDIVERT added to the kernel. Firewall type is open.
I have noticed that when you run a server (eg. sendmail, named, pop3 etc.) on the above, initial connection to the service is very slow (ie. between 5 and 60 seconds ), however once connection has been established data transfer becomes very fast (as per normal). If I disable natd and replace kernel with original, initial connection to services is very fast. This box is on a network with very little traffic. I would greatly appreciate any help on speeding up initial connection to services.
