Does nat start up? do a ps -ax |grep nat
Are you sure your natd.conf is correctly formatted?

Generally if it is your first firewall try the rc.conf option of 
firewall_type="OPEN" 
and here is what my /etc/natd.cf looks like.
##/etc/natd.cf
log             yes
deny_incoming   no
use_sockets     yes
same_ports      yes
verbose         no
port            8668
interface       ep0
unregistered_only       yes
