Hi all me again..

 Currently I have this configuration in my home network

@Home -->(into rl0) FreeBSD GW (ipfw & natd) -->(out of rl1 & into
Hub) -->from Hub to 2 boxes (one win98, one FreeBSD)..

the rl1 is configured as 192.168.12.157 netmask 255.255.255.0

With the two internal boxes on 192.168.12.2 & 192.168.12.3

Now the actual problem/situation... the Hub that I'm using now is faulty &
I'm not able to get a new one for a while.. so I was going to take the
internal Win98 box off the network.. and plug the internal FreeBSD box
directly to the rl1 of the GW (w/ a crossover cable), removing the need
for the hub.. now my question is this: do I need to change my
configuration for rl1 at all? The reason that I'm asking is that rl1 is
going from a 1->many relation to a 1->1 relation.. so I'm not sure if the
same configuration is valid.. the relevant config files are below:

/etc/rc.conf --->

network_interfaces="rl0 rl1"
ifconfig_rl0="inet xx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask 255.255.254.0"
ifconfig_rl1="inet 192.168.12.157 netmask 255.255.255.0"
hostname="gw.carpoolbc.com"
gateway_enable="Yes"
defaultrouter="xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"

firewall_enable="YES"
firewall_type="/usr/local/etc/rc.firewall"
firewall_quiet="YES"
natd_enable="YES"
natd_interface="rl0"
natd_flags="-f /usr/local/etc/natd.cf"
named_enable="YES"


/usr/local/etc/rc.firewall (I know this is a very bad config =] )--->

add allow all from any to any


/usr/local/etc/natd.cf --->

log no
deny_incoming no
use_sockets yes
same_ports yes
unregistered_only yes



Thanks in advance..

RSN
