Originally I posed the question as to why Windows clients on the local (192.168.120) network couldn't access the internet vi a FreeBSD gateway. Having done alittle more digging I find that I cannot traceroute (tracert in wins) beyong the local network. I have ppp with the -alias flag set. After connecting the FreeBSD box to the net I get the ISP-assigned IP addresses substituted for the 10.0.0.1 and 10.0.0.2 faked IP addresses set in ppp.conf: tun0: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 212.56.123.197 --> 195.66.129.122 netmask 0xffff00 or occasionally: tun0: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 212.56.111.212 --> 255.255.255.255 netmask 0xffffff inet 212.56.111.201 --> 192.168.53.110 netmask 0xffff00 I can ping & traceroute the world from FreeBSD, but not from any windows clients. Curiously, if I traceroute one of the IP-assigned addresses from windows, I get: c:\> tracert 212.56.111.201 Tracing route to 212.56.111.201 over a maximum of 30 hops 1 1ms 1ms 1ms 212.56.111.201 Trace complete c:\> It seems as though tracert is able to resolve the IP address via the FreeBSD box, but the FReeBSD box is all it sees and reports a single hop. I have gateway enable="YES" in rc.conf; ppp is in -alias mode; no fireall configured; natd not running because ppp is in -alias mode. I have been through the various configurations many times, but cannot spot anyting obviously wrong. Any suggestions?
