Back again after poking around....
I can now ping (both ways)/ftp/telnet (and no more ppp/tun0 problems) with
the following setup:
FBSD3.3R < x-over cable > win95 < 33.6 dial-up > ISP
Folks on this list have advised me that win95 cannot "route". I discovered
the following on my win95 box:
ROUTE [-f] [command destination] [MASK netmask] [gateway] [METRIC metric]
-f Clears the routing tables of all gateway entries. If this is used
in conjuction with one of the commands, the tables are cleared
prior to running the command.
command Must be one of four:
PRINT prints a route
ADD adds a route
DELETE deletes a route
CHANGE modifies an existing route
destination Specifies the destination host
MASK Specifies that the next parameter is the 'netmask'
value.
netmask Specifies the subnet mask value to be associated with
this entry. If not specified, it defaults to
255.255.255.255
gateway Specifies the gateway.
METRIC Specifies that the next parameter 'metric' is the cost
for this destination.
All symbolic names used for destination are looked up in the network
database file NETWORKS. The symbolic names for gateway are looked up in
the host name database file HOSTS.
So.....the output on my win95 box is:
C:\>route print
Active Routes:
Network Address Netmask Gateway Address Interface Metric
0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.0.0.1 10.0.0.2 1
10.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 10.0.0.2 10.0.0.2 1
10.0.0.2 255.255.255.255 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 1
10.255.255.255 255.255.255.255 10.0.0.2 10.0.0.2 1
127.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 1
224.0.0.0 224.0.0.0 10.0.0.2 10.0.0.2 1
255.255.255.255 255.255.255.255 10.0.0.2 0.0.0.0 1
Can I infer from all the above that I can in fact coerse win95 to route
for my LAN - such as it is? If so, do I need to do anything extra on the
FBSD end? Tia...
