Actually I'm not too sure what I'm running (how do I check?) but I must have *some* sort of IP masquerading running, since this setup (using 10.0.0.0 locally but accessing the internet through the bsd gateway) was the exact same one that I used when I had the bsd box as a normal modem gateway. The only difference now is that it's two NICs (one to the internal network and one to the cable modem) rather than a single NIC (to the internal network) and a phone modem (ppp via tun0). -----== Sent via Deja News, The Discussion Network ==----- http://www.dejanews.com/ Easy access to 50,000+ discussion forums To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
