Question

How are you suppose to NAT with snow leopard server mini with only 1 ethernet port?

Answer 1

Set up 2 or more VLANs on the ethernet port.
Use a managed switch to break these VLANs out onto physical ports. That way, you could have non-nat traffic on VLAN 2, and natted private RFC1918 traffic on VLAN 3, all shared on the same physical ethernet port.

Gotta love 802.11q...

Answer 2

You can use NAT with Ethernet and AirPort.

Answer 3

Use NAT to bridge the ethernet access to a FireWire LAN. I've done it ;). Performance isn't great, but you can blame the IPoFW implementation for that.

Answer 4

Or pick up a USB->Ethernet adapter.

Answer 5

While VLANs are probably the best solution, NAT on a stick (sometimes called 'loopback NAT') works just fine. It doesn't provide the same security as traditional NAT, but most people are using NAT to provide access not to prevent it. Essentially, your inside and outside subnets just live on the same Ethernet segment.
