What you would need to do is get a piece of software for the windows machine that will either proxy connections, such as wingate, or you can get something that does ip address translation, there are a couple products that do this such as nat32. BUT (here's the big but) The FreeBSD machine would perform these operations 100 times better. > -----Original Message----- > From: Langa Kentane [SMTP:LKentane@mweb.com] > Sent: Wednesday, February 24, 1999 8:34 AM > To: 'Nick Faso' > Cc: 'freebsd-questions@freebsd.org' > Subject: RE: networking windows and freebsd > > You can free proxy software on the internet to run on windows 98.
