Ok, I am a newbie to FreeBSD and networking, so I have been reading, testing, and reading and testing some more, but seems that I am getting nowhere. I have a small network at home and a DSL router to connect to the internet. I can NIC any windows box up and connect to the internet by using the information from my ISP. I can NIC my FreeBSD box up and connect to the internet. I have placed two NICs into the FreeBSD trying to set up a gateway and email server for the other computers. Now, from the FreeBSD box I can travel the internet with no problems. I can ping the other computers from the FreeBSD box with no problems. From the other computers I can ping all the other computers on the intranet and both NICs in the FreeBSD box but I cannot ping the DSL router or anything beyond. Is there anyone that can help me resolve this problem? Here are what my hosts and rc.conf files contain. I did not include the firewall since I have made the firewall_type as "OPEN" while I have been testing. I have even tried removing the call to the rc.firewall file trying to get through the BSD box. hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost.myisp.com localhost # NIC 1 ed1 on the FreeBSD box connected to the router 209.102.##.#8 bsd01.thehomesystems.net bsd01 209.102.##.#3 router1 # NIC 2 xl0 on the FreeBSD box connected to the hub 192.168.##.##0 gw.thehomesystems.net gw 192.168.##.##1 pc1.thehomesystems.net pc1 192.168.##.##2 pc2.thehomesystems.net pc2 192.168.##.##3 pc3.thehomesystems.net pc3 192.168.##.##4 pc4.thehomesystems.net pc4 rc.conf: ifconfig_ed1="inet 209.102.##.## metric 1 mtu 1500 netmask 255.255.255.224" ifconfig_xl0="inet 192.168.##.### metric 1 mtu 1500 netmask 255.255.255.0" hostname="bsd01.thehomesystems.net" linux_enable="YES" router_flags="-q" router="routed" router_enable="YES" check_quotas="NO" defaultrouter="209.102.##.#3" sshd_enable="YES" local_startup="/usr/local/etc/rc.d" firewall_enable="YES" firewall_script="/etc/rc.firewall" firewall_type="OPEN" firewall_quite="NO" gateway_enable="YES" Any help here would be extremely appreciated. kevinm@cco.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
