Thanks to the efforts of several contributors here I've got my BSD box connecting & staying online apparently permanently now ..... browsers & email clients work from LAN boxes and I can tracert from Win98 LAN machines to outside IP addresses. I've still got what I believe is a routing problem thats stopping ICQ connecting and I figure thats possibly related to an inability to tracert names from LAN boxes I'd appreciate any comments on the results of a netstat -nr default 203.3.126.1 UGSc tun0 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 UH lo0 203.3.126.1 203.3.126.129 UH tun0 203.3.126.128 ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff UHLWb fxp0 203.3.126.128/29 link#1 UC fxp0 203.3.126.129 0:a0:c9:21:12:48 UHLW lo0 203.3.126.133 0:0:c0:38:b9:27 UHLW fxp0 203.3.126.128 is local network address (uses 255.255.255.248 netmask) 203.3.126.129 is address of FreeBSD (local gateway) box ethernet & ppp interfaces 203.3.126.133 is address of one of the Win98 boxes I want to run ICQ on The "203.3.126.129 0:a0:c9:21:12:48 UHLW lo0" line seems to suggest it is binding the IP address of the gateway box ethernet interface to the loopback device ..... however I don't know if running "route delete ........." is the right way to remove it, and if thats all I need to do to get stuff going where it should go. I figure I need to put something in /etc/rc.conf so the "bad' entry doesn't come back when i re-boot but I'm not sufficiently up with this stuff to know what I can do safely.
