I'm new with FreeBSD and I'm using FreeBSD 3.2. At home i have two FreeBSD boxes both running on 3.2 RELEASE. They are linked with ethernet. Now here is the problem: one box is connected to inet and another isn't, but i want the other box to be connected to inet through the first one. First box is using ppp and has a dynamic IPs. I want to be able to connect box 2 through box 1, but still have IP that box 1 has it. What must i do ? What files do i have to edit ? And the other thing.. I bought ethernet card.. what IP should I "give" to that ethernet card ? Is it important ? If i connect box 2 through box 1 will i have IP that ethernet 2 (ethernet card that box 2 is using it) has it ? If anyone can help me i'll be very happy. btw: maybe my english isn't very good.. sorry :) Merry Christmas and a happy New Year to all of you! bye..
