I'm attempting to configure a 4.2 RELEASE system as an ADSL gateway. Despite reading everything I can find on the subject I'm still confused about what to do with files like '/etc/rc.conf", "/etc/resolv.conf", "/etc/ppp.linkup" If a system has two network adaptors (one for ADSL modem & one for LAN), what settings are needed in rc.conf ?? Obviously I can't assign similar addresses to both ethernet interfaces when I have no way of knowing the what the DHCP one will be before connecting ... hopefully NAT is smart enough to send LAN packets to / from the right place (although there is a quite vague warning re ADSL / NAT in the handbook linking to a dead page) With dialup modem gateway setups using either fixed public IPs or NAT addresses its straightforward enough, so whats the problem here with nat'ting the first ethernet interface & using 192.168 addresses on the LAN side ??
