RE: NAT (ipfw/natd) broken in latest -CURRENT

Hi Joe,

I have been trying to recreate your problem but my setup seem to
work. I then noticed in your original netstat output the p2p
host route installed by the tunnel interface has the "G" flag
set. This will certainly cause a routing problem because that
route is not an indirect route. I modified the kernel code to simulate
this condition and I do see the error on output, which is expected.

I assume this problem is consistently reproducible in your setup ?
