I also tried changing everthing like the tutorial says to do for ip masquerading, and still nothing. I run into the same problem. Is the -alias option compile into ppp by default on 2.2.6 freebsd. Also, do I need to do anything to my kernel to allow packets to pass from ed0 to tun0. The wierd thing is I can ping 198.147.103.2 from my win95 box. wich is out of my local net at home. I can ping 206.117.19.10 wich is the freebsd box at home on the ethernet. I CAN NOT ping my name server 206.117.19.2 which is the machine Im connecting to via ppp from my win 95 box. I can ping anywhere I wan from my freebsd box at home. Do I need to add some special route, or set something in ifconfig, or is this a netmask problem. Im lost. Please Help.
