comment = "Userland Network Address Translation (NAT) for ipfw"
desc = <<EOD
The natd(8) daemon provides a NAT implementation in userland using ipfw
divert(4) sockets. In most cases, ipfw's in-kernel NAT implementation
is preferred over natd. natd(8) is provided for backward compatibility
with existing installations, or for users who require functionality not
available in ipfw, such as Application Level Gateway (ALG) for the FTP
or IRC protocols.
