Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk I would appreciate experts' answer on this. I am not sure if the following is possible with FreeBSD: Internet--------- ----------private LAN | | tun0 ep0 ------- | | | | ------- FreeBSD2.1 running DNS, SOCKS IPFW turned off, etc. The main purpose is to have a server that acts as a firewall allowing clients on the provate LAN to access the internet. tun0 interface will have a valid ip ( ppp ) address and the ep0 will be a made up address/LAN. Thank you in advance. Also, any recommendations for the firewall( socks, fwtk, etc.) ? shishir
