Im assuming that i need to set aliases on both boxs for interal ips and then set gateways accordingly. is it possible to bind more one ip to a win95 box, i know it's no problem with the bsd. Or am i going about this all wrong and need something like a active hub or switch? any info would be great. thanks Chris To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
