i never managed to figure out how to convert my pppoe nat config to ipfw
natting.

    foo:
     set device PPPoE:vr0
     set MTU 1454
     accept CHAP
     enable lqr
     add default HISADDR
     nat enable yes
     nat port tcp 192.168.0.33:51332 51332
     nat port udp 192.168.0.33:51332 51332
     set authname blogovitch
     set authkey vitchoblog

    loop:
     set log phase chat connect lcp ipcp command
     set device localhost:pptp
     set dial
     set login
     set ifaddr 192.168.0.200 192.168.0.201 255.255.255.255

clue bat solicited
