Hello,
I read the section of NAT in the handbook which tells
me that natd is for NICs and people using modems
should use the ppp -nat. All I wanna do is be able to
browse the internet when I've got my windows laptop
connected to my FBSD box. The NAT section says I need
to recompile my kernel with the following options:
The following options must be in the kernel
configuration file:
options IPFIREWALL
options IPDIVERT
Additionally, at choice, the following may also be
suitable:
options IPFIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_ACCEPT
options IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE
if you use ppp -nat does this have to be done?
What about the /etc/rc.conf, what goes in there?
The NAT section you need to put this in it:
gateway_enable="YES"
firewall_enable="YES"
firewall_type="OPEN"
natd_enable="YES"
natd_interface="fxp0"
natd_flags=""
Does this still apply when using ppp -nat? I guess
the last 3 would not but the first 3 could apply am I
right?
Thanks
