Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I'll be building a system to act as my firewall / proxy / router between ADSL and my home network. I'll be using an old 440BX based motherboard with a 225Mhz Pentium processor, and two Pro100+ NICs. (32MB RAM, 5.1GB IDE HD, IDE CDROM) What version of the OS should I use? 3.4R? Is there a document that describes the interaction between ipfw and natd? I want to understand how they relate before I attempt to use them. Some background: I've been using FreeBSD for webproxies, webservers, and ppp dialup servers & routers since the 2.0.5R days. I've read the 3.4R manpages for ifpw & natd through the website. Any tips or guidance would be appreciated. [RC] (Thanks to all for the good work. I owe my career to FreeBSD.)
