I have been using FBSD for a while, but now I need to ship a FBSD server half way across america, and have a newbie press the power button, plug in two network cards, and have it work. I have already setup the two network cards on the machine, both with DHCP, meaning when plugged in interface fxp0 will receive via DHCP an IP from the broadband provider, and then on interface dc0, the client computers will retreive a LAN IP address. I also configured the rc.conf so that it is enabled as a gateway. But is that all I need to do? Help appreciated. -dero
