Here's my problem, I want to use my OS X box to do NAT, instead of the OS 9 box I used to use. I use the internal modem to connect, so I get a new IP every time. The problem is that I'll then lose all internet access until I restart NAT (I use IPNetShareX.)
There was a hint here while back, you can see it here: http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20020212085541251
I'm new to UNIX, so I don't how to make the script executable. Has anyone used this script before?
Thanks,

If you are the owner of the script file, and if you have administrator
privileges, then you can execute the follwing command in a terminal
window:
chmod 755 filename
Good luck!
The answer to your second question - no, I have not used the script.

I would suspect that problem with natd not restarting has been fixed in 10.1.3, but I still use the script anyway (too lazy to check).
It works perfectly fine. I have been using this script as my /etc/ppp/ip-up script for months now.
