It won't be able to talk to the internet except if you tell freebsd apps to work through win gate (which IMHO is only a proxy), so you'll have to tell your freebsd apps to use the windows machine as a proxy for web etc.. Of you could turn it around, and make the freebsd box the dialup box, and use natd for nearly transparent access for most applications to the internet. --------------------------------------------------------------------- |Daniel O'Connor software and network engineer for Genesis Software | |http://www.gsoft.com.au | |The nice thing about standards is that there are so many of them to| |choose from. -- Andrew Tanenbaum | --------------------------------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
