Okay, I took care of the rc.firewall file, though it does have references to ipnumbers that don't match my network, so I did change those. I hope that was okay. I still have a problem though. When I try to ping another machine on my network I get the following message: ping: sendto: Permission denied I can ping the nics in that machine though. I believe this may be because icmp is blocked by the firewall? So then I load kde and netscape and netscape can't connect to any site. I run ifconfig -a and both nics are shown with the proper ip #'s.When I run netstat -rn I get this info - default 208.194.173.26 mx0 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 lo0 192.168 link#1 pn0 192.168.0.1 0:a0:cc:28:d0:a lo0 192.168.0.5 0:20:78:e0:aa:2c pn0 1012 208.194.173/25 link#2 mx0 208.194.173.26 0:a0:cc:e4:87:a5 lo0 What's most interesting is 192.168.0.5 which is the ip of a pc in the basement, that number has nothing to do with the machine this is running on, and what's with the 208.194.173/25? I didn't enter that anywhere also. The interfaces are as follows - mx0 is outside world nic 208.194.173.26 pn0 is homenet nic 192.168.0.1 On Mon, 07 Feb 2000, Giorgos Keramidas wrote: > On Sat, Feb 05, 2000 at 11:13:30PM -0800, Chip Wiegand wrote: > > > > I set up ipfirewall exactly as specified in The complete FreeBSD 3.3 > > book for the 'simple' firewall profile.
