Haveing a net connection or not, you will have the telnet line in your inetd.conf. Fluffy, did you setup an IP for your network card? If so then you are set. If not, find out the driver id for your card (as is vx0 or ep0) then edit your /etc/inetd.conf like so ifconfig_ed0="inet 10.0.0.11 netmask 255.255.255.0" Then make the win9x machine default gateway your FreeBSD machine. Then you will be able to telnet to your FreeBSD machine by IP number. If you want DNS, you can look at the FreeBSD handbook on seting up a mini-DNS server.
