I have the following problem: My FreeBSD box act as a dial-up router for my small network. This is a AMD-machine with two network cards and a modem. Dial-up connection works via pppd, firewall and nat - ipfw/natd su-2.04# cat '/etc/natd.conf' dynamic yes same_ports no use_sockets yes this is how nat is configured firewall_enable="YES" firewall_type="open" natd_enable="YES" natd_interface="ppp0" natd_flags="-f /etc/natd.conf" this is how i made it work. The problem: I have some clients with ICQ 99b on both sides of this router. Icq connects to it's server as usual, seems like working fine, but sometimes it disconnects from the server for a few seconds (3-4 to 15-20 secs) and then connects again. How can i fix it? Before there was an NT box with Winroute inside, i haven't experienced this problem..
