www.freebsddiary.org and the freebsd manual have great information on setting up a "gateway" for freebsd. It's as easy as going to www.google.com/bsd and searching for gateway. Also. Make sure you have these lines in your /etc/rc.conf (maybe not exactly, but close) : gateway_enable="YES" ipnat_enable="YES" ipnat_rules="/etc/ipnat.conf" ipfilter_enable="YES" ipfilter_rules="/etc/ipf.rules" inetd_enable="YES" ipv6_enable="YES" You also need to have information in the ipnat.conf such as: map fxp0 192.168.0.0/16 -> 0.0.0.0/32 portmap tcp/udp 40000:65000 map fxp0 192.168.0.0/16 -> 0.0.0.0/32 Change the "fxp0" to whatever your device that connects to the outside world. As for "ipf.rules" you can leave it blank which leaves the firewall open. The permission denied from your 'ping' is probably b.c the firewall is not enabled as open. -Donnie :) --- Lorin Lund <wbs@infowest.com> wrote: > I'm using 4.4 RELEASE.
