Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, to all! Can someone help me in configuring natd? When I dial up via a modem to the Internet and try to ping my own nic (ed2) (192.168.168.101) I get "Permission denied". I did some research and found that I can as root type: ipfw add 65534 allow all from any to any and this will allow me to ping my internal network. How can I configure my box to where I don't have to type this command? I have read in The Complete FreeBSD the sections on natd and ipfw, but I am missing something. Next question: I am dialing via a modem on what I know as comm 2 (sorry, I'm not sure what the UNIX name is for this port, but I think it's sio1). <-- Please correct me on this. After I dial up and get PPP anthony> what should I type to initiate my natd session? This is what I have been typing: natd -interface ed2, which is obviously not working. Thank you in advance!
