[-- Attachment #1 --] Hi, I run a small home network consisting of 1 freebsd 4.2 machine and 1 windows 98 machine. I use ppp to dialup to the internet with the -nat switch. My brother likes to play red alert 2 over the net, but since i have been using freebsd to dialup it wont establish a connection. I read through the freebsd site and found nat port udp internal:8575 8675 nat port udp internal:5009 5009 I added these into ppp.conf using 10.0.0.2 (windows machine), redialed yet it still wont allow him to connect. When he plays he host's the games, instead of joining someone else's. Thanks in advanced, Matthew Plews lanithium@dingoblue.net.au P.S sorry about the other email, accidentally clicked send.
