...no, I'm way on down the road from that...it's alright at that spot. I found I just had one little ole thing missing... a local DNS named setup and bind to the BSD gateway.... now, it's forwarding DNS requests and caching... and BEST OF ALL... it's WORKING! ...all clients are now happy! ...and so am I. I really badly wanted to switch the server gateway from the Win2K to a FreeBSD... now I'm there..!!! ...runs like a daemon! Thanks for my friends on this list who helped on this.... frustrating but worth it to now have BSD. At 03:30 PM 11.24.2001 +0000, P. U.
