Message-ID: <09DDCBC4F939D31186D20008C7333C82@high-voltage.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-net@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org We're behind a Wingate firewall at work. There are no NAT services, just standard proxy services plus socks. I want to add a FreeBSD machine to my desk, but I'd like to use standard services. How can I do this? Thought 1: Could I create a ppp tunnel to my home network? How would I reach through socks? Thought 2: I saw a package which uses ipfw to capture external web requests and route them via a web proxy. Would it be conceivable to route all external traffic via socks? ----------------------------------------------------------------- "Dignity is the quality that enables a man who says nothing and knows nothing, to command a great deal of respect." -- J.
