Hallo!

Out from reading the manpage for natd, I have a question about how to restrict IPFW 
access for NAT for the case when I have one computer connected directly to another one 
(having two NICs installed into it)? That means that I don't have to care about big 
private network, but rather want to narrow down the access to single private IP 
address.

For NAT to work, two rules need to be added:

    ipfw add divert natd all from any to any via xl0

Can this rule be restricted (is it possible to divert not every packets)? Right now, 
every packet that enters/leaves the system is diverted, sometimes natd process eats 
quite a lot of processor resources. Can this be avoided? How?

    ipfw add pass all from any to any

How can this be restricted? I basically need only outgoing stuff working, that's all, 
and silently passing any packets from whatever location to any destination is insecure 
to me. Can someone post a live examples of such setup?

Waiting to hear from some gurus ;)
