"Pre-configured" means that you must understand and consistently use
the configuration that is installed.  For me that was more difficult
than just installing my own configuration from scratch.

Try "rdr ne2 XX.XX.XX.XX/0 port 80 -> 192.168.1.104 port 80 tcp".
Changing that "/32" to "/0" is what got me going.  (See below about 8080.)

Please, can anyone explain why that must be "/0" and not "/32"?  TIA.

I hope these "=3D" are only an artifact of your mailer.  In the respective
rc.* files they must be ascii "=".

But you have port 8080 set to receive http redirection.  I have port 80
set in ipnat.conf, so the default in /etc/services is not affected.  If
you really want to use 8080 for your server or a web proxy, then you'll
have to set up something to listen on that port and have it listed in
/etc/services, AFAIK.

Hope it helps.
