Hello, I'm trying to set up my office network in the following way. I have five PCs on an internal LAN, and an Indy (which hosts our web server) and a PC running FreeBSD 2.1.6 (Walnut Creek CD-ROM) on an external network. I'm trying to use the FreeBSD-running PC as a dual-homed router / gateway for the LAN to reach the Internet, and for the Internet to reach our web server. I've engorged myself on FAQs and other documentation, but I just can't get the network to work. I have set up /etc/hosts to reflect my internal LAN, I have updated my routing table to include my Internet gateway, I have enabled the "gateway" option in /etc/sysconfig, and I am definitely running routed. I am inexperienced with addressing subnets, so I assume that I may have omitted some vital configuration details along those lines. But I have ifconfiged my two ethernet cards (3Com 507s) with their proper ip addresses. Here's a copy of my crippled routing table, which doesn't even seem to reflect my second ethernet card: Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Netif Expire default 208.28.204.1 UGSc 0 0 ep0 10/24 link#3 UC 0 0 localhost localhost UH 0 320 lo0 208.28.204 link#2 UC 0 0 208.28.204.1 link#2 UHLW 1 3 HELP! Thank you very much for your reply. -- John P. Pagano jpagano@allegro.cs.tufts.edu
