Hi, I solved most of my problem, but thank you for asking. I have it running on= =20 the internal network simply by enabling (and configuring a little bit) natd= =20 on the university network. Now the only problem left: I am running a server on both machines, but on my windows box it is port 82= .=20 I have it configured so that the freebsd box will forward port 82 to the=20 windows machine, and the router will forward port 82 to the windows machine= .=20 It works fine, provided a person on the internal network uses the internal= =20 IP, and a person on the external network uses the external IP. The problem= =20 arrises when a person on the internal network decides to use the external I= P=20 (of my cable modem). I ran a tracert from a person's machine, and although= =20 the request travels through the internal network, it dies on the last hop.= =20 Is there someway I can wrap it around so that my Freebsd box will be able t= o=20 server the internal network quickly even though a person may connect to an= =20 external IP? I suppose an easy solution would be just to put a PHP script= =20 that directs a person to the right IP depending on their config, but I am= =20 looking for a more transparent solution. Thanks a lot guys, I really appreciate it, Thomas Dimson tdimson@gmail.com On 9/11/05, Glenn Dawson <glenn@antimatter.net> wrote: >=20 > Did you already solve your problem?
