Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-net@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Hi... I have two questions that, to date, I haven't been able to find an answer to without having to deal with another operating system, which I don't find acceptable :( Or, rather, one question requires changing operating system, the other I'm not even sure if its possible... Scenario: I'm just about to install a VidConf network for a client, to be used from home and the office to do tele-commuting. All the 'clients' machines are going to be running WinNT, but their file server at the office is a FreeBSD box w/ Samba. Q1. is there anything I can run on the FreeBSD box to provide them an equivalent to an ILS server, as is available for NT machines? They are all going to be using NetMeeting as their clients, but I want them to be able to connect to the central server to find out who else is online... Q2. is there any way of setting up a "proxy server"? I'm running FreeBSD at home as my gateway and main development machine. I have an NT machine up and running so that I'm not totally lost when I go do the install, and would like to do VidConf'ng to a friend in a remote location. The problem is that I need to go through my gateway, which is running NATd...is there any way of doing this? Someone way of saying "if a connection comes in on port XXX, redirect it to port XXX on internal IP YYY? Thanks... Marc G.
