I do this with my systems at home: one FreeBSD host has a ppp connection to the Internet and an Ethernet interface to all the other FreeBSD hosts. You just need to edit /etc/sysconfig and set the gateway option to YES: # If you want this host to be a gateway, set to YES. gateway=YES Also, make sure you've set up routing correctly. Then, reboot your system. If you'd like to see copies of my /etc/sysconfig and related files, let me know and I'll pass them along. -- Sean Kelly NOAA Forecast Systems Laboratory kelly@fsl.noaa.gov Boulder Colorado USA http://www-sdd.fsl.noaa.gov/~kelly/
