I have a FreeBSD4.3-RELEASE computer which I need to setup as a gateway. It needs to route packets between the computers on the Interior Network which are another FreeBSD5.0-CURRENT machine, and a Windows2000 Proffessional. Also, it needs to connect all the computers on the internal network to the Internet. So basically, 129.2.x.1 is the outside gateway for 129.2.x.y (192.168.69.1)which is the gateway we need to configure. The FreeBSD5.0-CURRENT machine is 192.168.69.2, the Windows2000 computer is 192.168.69.3. Both of the FreeBSD Machines and the Windows computer can talk to each other through the internal network. But none of them except the gateway can get out to the Internet. As you can see from the rc.conf file it has to NICS in it. I'm guessing the problem is because ep2 isn't forwarding outbound traffic to ep0. BUT, I though thats what the gateway_enable="YES" does. I have looked on the mailing list archives for about a day and didn't find much to answer my question. I also looked in the handbook, but that didn't help because it basically only talks about routing tables and not how to actually setup the ones we need. I have also read the man pages for ifconfig, and netstat. ----[CUT]---- inetd_enable="YES" ifconfig_ep0="inet 129.2.x.y netmask 255.255.255.0" ifconfig_ep2="inet 192.168.69.1 netmask 255.255.255.0" defaultrouter="129.2.x.1" hostname="hostname.com" router_flags="-s" router="routed" router_enable="YES" gateway_enable="YES" ----[END]---- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Philip M.
