Maybe we (the list) could come up with an > alternative that would work. It looks like he's trying to make his FreeBSD machine be a firewall of some sort. The setup is similar to what most people with a single public IP do, except that he's using real IPs on the inside instead of using NAT + private IPs. Since he doesn't have a proper subnet (he's got a /29 subnet shifted by one), doing anything using routed is out of the question. I imagine something could be concocted using natd/ipfw, but it would be very complicated, to say the least. -- Matt Emmerton To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
