Hello,

This is first question to this news group. I am setting FreeBSD as my
gateway to internet for my home network. I got several resources over the
net. But I am little bit confused which one to use.

I am connecting Verizon ADSL. It is ADSL connected to one of Ethernet card
of FreeBSD box. 
1) Should I use PPP or PPPoE?
2) For home networking, should I use IPFW & NATD or ppp's NAT facility?

Your answer will save tremendous time. 

Thanks in advance.
/Jaeho Lee

If you don't need the best performance/quality for each format, then
aKtion works. It's kind of lame on MPEG though. xmovie seems pretty good
for MPEG, but I don't think it does other formats.
