However having your linux or FreeBSD box dial out is possible. Your Linux box would dial out using ppp or whatever. If ppp you'll want to run ppp -alias But also you need to have your linux box run as a gateway If it's your FreeBSD box one site that will help you out is this http://www.awfulhak.org/ppp.html Hope this helps you !
