When last I logged on my FreeBSD box I could ping and rlogin anyone on the internet; I could also ping the one computer I have networked (others will follow once it's working). Last, but not least, the other computer could ping the FreeBSD box. So all is well up until the very last ping... the internet from the non-BSD computer (i.e. WINDO$E). On the non-BSD computer I have set the DNS server to the ip my ISP gave me and my gateway to the internal ethernet card on the FreeBSD box. So, it seems as if the problem is it cannot find a route out of my FreeBSD box on the BSD computer... wait booting... the rc.conf file looks like this... --------------- snip ---------------- ifconfig_sis0="DHCP" ifconfig_ed0="inet 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0" gateway_enable="YES" firewall_enable="YES" firewall_type="open" firewall_logging="YES" natd_enable="YES" natd_program="/sbin/natd" natd_interface="sis0" --------------- snip ---------------- I am usinhg FreeBSD 4.2 thank you for your time and help, if you have any questions about my system configuration please feel free to ask. Thanks again, --Matthew E.
