NAT was working fine.

When I added the following options, ipnat fails to talk to the kernel to load the rules.


pseudo-device   ppp             10
options        PPP_BSDCOMP
options        PPP_FILTER

I've backed-off the number of pseudo devices to 2 and removed these options and it now works.

ipnat was failing with an ioctl failure.  Unfortunately I don't have a recond of the specific ioctl call that was failing.
