I just realized that I took this posting at face value in the last reply. If you don't have security reasons for not echoing all IP traffic both directions, you should enable options GATEWAY, and rebuild your kernel (or if you are running a recent kernel, look at the sysctl() man page). Then BSD will forward all packets for you. Terry Lambert terry@cs.weber.edu --- Any opinions in this posting are my own and not those of my present or previous employers.
