X-mailer: Pegasus Mail for Win32 (v3.11) Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I'm running FreeBSD Ver 3.2. I have an External DSL modem connected to my hub. One machine runs FreeBSD, one runs windows. I haven't gotten FreeeBSD to use the DSL modem yet, but windows does. What I'm trying to accomplish is to allow the FreeBSD box to act as a gateway thus permitting access to DSL simultaneously with the Windows 95 box. Has anyone done this? Should the BSD box have 2 network cards with the DSL modem on one of them? I assume a firewall on the BSD box would be a good idea... Can someone point me at a starting point or refer me to appropriate documentation? Thanks all....
