Thanks for the response..... sorry I think I wasn't getting my point 
through clearly enough.

Am Cisco Engineer so know the difference between NAT, PAT, Static 
routing and dynamic routing ;-)

Yep I read about it in the handbook and yes I have used it before but 
not for dynamic routing.

The NAT'ing is what I did previously and was just mentioning what I 
'had' used before..... which was everything but dynamic routing on 
FreeBSD 8.0 :-)


P.s. sorry if what I'm trying to say isn't getting out clearly enough :-)
