When I do that I get unable to reach host. Putting in IP address 10.0.10.1 in telnet gets me connected. My host.conf file has first go to host then bind. Am I using the hosts file wrong? # ::1 localhost localhost.a1poweruser.com 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.a1poweruser.com # # Private network. # 10.0.10.1 is the IP address of the Nic card in the gateway FBSD box # 10.0.10.5 is the IP address of the Nic card in the Lan win box # 10.0.0.1 is the IP address of the gateway user ppp tun for dialin # 10.0.0.74 is the IP address of the win dialin box. # 10.0.10.1 lanhost lan.a1poweruser.com 10.0.10.5 lanwin1 lanwin1.a1poweruser.com 10.0.0.1 dialinhost dialin.a1poweruser.com 10.0.0.74 dialinwin1 dailin.a1poweruser.com # To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
