The patch works. Thank you very much. I attach my attempt on a patch that
should make it possible to ommit the alias_address and interface options
in case proxy_only is specified. IMHO in that situation these options are
not used and should not be required by natd..

Thank you for any comments on the diff (especially style).

Should I fire a PR?

Best regards,
