Hello.  I am currently a Debian Linux 2.0 user whose system died and is in
need of replacement.  I chose Debian Linux for its reliability and ease of
setup to forward Internet traffic between my dialup PPP connection and my
LAN of 3 other machines.  One of the things I liked most about the setup
is that unlike the other OSes I have tried (NetBSD, OpenBSD, and
LinuxPPC), Debian correctly forwarded DCC requests/transmissions (for
Internet Relay Chat).  A friend of mine wants me to use FreeBSD on my new
system (probably about a 300 MHz K6-2, 64 MB RAM, etc..).  My question for
you is how well does FreeBSD handle my IP forwarding issue?  Incidently...
the system will also be running netatalk and apache for developing
websites on my Macintoshes.

P.S.  Current "dead" system is a 486DX2-66 w/8 MB of RAM and a 250 MB hard
drive.
