What do you mean when > you say you can't "connect" from B->A but only the reverse way? there is a firewall between the two networks. the A network has unrestricted access to all machine on the B network, however the B network is restricted to the point where it can't originate connections, however it can establish connections that are the response to connections originating from the A network. in other words... i can ftp from A to B without the need for passive mode, but i can't ftp or telnet (or anything for that matter) from the B side. this is about as clear as i can make it, if you still need more clarrification let me know and i'll try again. -brian To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
