I have a dual hosted FreeBSD machine.
I use it so that all my machines at home can share the one real IP address
I have.  All the gateway stuff works great with one exception.  In Netscape
Navigator on a WinNT 4.0 machine on my intranet accessing the web via the
dual-hosted FreeBSD machine, if I encounter a page which has Java on it
then Netscape says "Starting Java..." and never returns.  I have to kill
it.  What do I have to do to FreeBSD to get this to work?  I believe it
used to work when this same NT machine was connected directly to the internet.

I am also having a heck of time figuring out what my settings need to be
for ipfw.  Whenever I add a new one, then everything stops working.  All I
want to do is allow all outgoing connections, and only allow incoming SMTP,
HTTP, FTP and maybe POP3 to go as far as the FreeBSD machine.

Thanks in advance.

P.S. I am not subscribed, so please respond directly to this email address.
