I currently have small network at home (4 pc - WinNt 4.0 server, Win2000 Pro, Win98 SE, and FreeBSD 3.3). The NT Server is my PDC / Proxy Server / File Server / Print Server (don't laugh). My Primary machine is the Win2000 box. My wife's machine is the Win98 box. I'm using Wingate 3.0 as my proxy server software on the NT machine, but I'm getting more and more frustrated with the things that Wingate can't do (IRC send/receive, some internet gaming, etc. Not to mention the overhead it requires - Stuff runs awfully slow sometimes). I know that it's possible to set up FreeBSD to act as a firewall/proxy server but I'm at a loss to figure this out. I've got Kernel PPPD working but as far as IP aliasing, packet forwarding, etc, goes, I'm kinda "Gump-ish". I've read the man pages, tutorials, and several other resources but it's just not coming together for me. Can anyone walk me through this or point to another resource that I might have missed?
