Check out http://www.freebsd.org/tutorials/ppp/ppp.html for the PPP user mode tutorial. It tells you how to configure your FreeBSD box as a router for IP packets. I've done this and its pretty painless, just make sure you modem is configured correctly first. Right now I have 4 Win95 machines using my FreeBSD box as an Internet gateway using IP Aliasing. -- Neal Tillery -- neal.tillery@cp.novartis.com > ---------- > From: ABAMF ICI[SMTP:ABAMFICI@aol.com] > Sent: Wednesday, April 08, 1998 9:26 PM > To: freebsd-newbies@FreeBSD.ORG > Subject: IP Masquerade? | Proxy Server? > <Big Intro Snip> > Well my question is, what is this kind of networking called?
