OpenBSD 4.5 was released in May 2009 -- roughly 3.5 years ago. Official support for OpenBSD releases lasts one calendar year following the date of release which means that official support for OpenBSD 4.5 ended over two years ago.

Use of old releases is also problematic given that pf(4) has had radical changes made to its implementation & usage in the past few years. If you have been using the PF User's Guide for guidance (& it is a solid source of information for all things related to pf(4)...), recognize that it is targets the current release which is OpenBSD 5.2 -- released in November 2012. Information found in the Guide may or may not apply as expected to such an old release as 4.5.

Both information on pf(4) & NAT can be found in the Guide. More tutorial information can be found in Hansteen's online manuscript:

Yet as cautioned earlier, these documents refer to versions of OpenBSD newer than 4.5.
