Greetings All,

I am currently running 4.0 STABLE on a box on my LAN at home.  I am
attempting to learn FreeBSD as I may be able to use it for some of my
clients.  I am currently experimenting with the box as a gateway using a
dialup PPP connection.

I have the box setup to dial upon boot up and keep the connection.  Gateway
is enabled in rc.conf.  Routing is disabled.  Firewall is disabled.  The box
dials and connects to the internet and locally on the box all services work
fine (Telnet/Ftp/etc.)  I am also using the nat option for ppp.  On the
client machine (win98se) I am able to ping both the IP address of the NIC on
the freebsd box and the address that the ppp connection assigns to tun0.  I
am also able to ping the remote gateway's IP address of my ISP.  Any other
address that I attempt to ping responds with a TTL expired before reaching
destination error.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Tj Delmarco
