I'm sorry that this is not a strictly FreeBSD question, but I don't know
of a forum better equipped to answer it.  Neither FAQ nor Handbook seemed
to cover the subject.

I am a poor exile with only a modem/PPP connection.  Works well, but only
one computer on my home network can use it.  I have a small internal net,
using 10.0.0.*/30 (:-o), but its hosts can't get to the Internet.

What's the name of the process by which my PPP client can enable other
hosts on the internal network to get out, for WWW, ftp, telnet, ntp, or
whatever?  As I understand it, a "router" in the PPP client translates
internal IP addresses (10.0.0.*) into whatever single IP address that DHCP
has given it.

TIA..	Chuck
