<html><DIV>Hey!...Guys and Girls,</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I've installed FreeBSD 4.2 on a dual homed gateway with NAT/DNS in place (open firewall). There is another FreeBSD box and a windoze box on the same internal subnet (192.168.0.x). I've installed netscape on both the FreeBSD box and the windoze box (The FreeBSD box is runing X). The windoze box can browse, with no problem but, the FreeBSD cannot. The IP address on the windoze box is set correctly with the default gateway set at 192.168.0.1 and the DNS search order set at 192.168.0.1. This configuration is working fine for the windoze box. However, the FreeBSD box cannot browse at all. When trying to browse, I get an error message saying that Netscape is unable to locate the server and, there may be a problem with my name server, and that $SOCKS_NS may have to be set to the appropriate name server. What am I missing? What other files need to be configured on the FreeBSD box in order to make Netscape browse properly?</DIV><br clear=all><hr>Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at <a href="http://explorer.msn.com">http://explorer.msn.com</a><br></p></html>; To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
