Because without that command, the "battle.net" complains that "my >server is not processing UDP packets." (and it uses port 6112 packets). As far as battle.net goes, I have played ~100 games of Starcraft, with probably 70 of them going through ppp -alias. I only have 1 disconnect on my record, and that one came when I was using the modem directly connected to my Win95 machine. On the other hand, I have had a great number of disconnects from battle.net. While I'm not sure, this seems to indicate that the problem lies with battle.net specifically and not natd/ppp -alias. -- bryan k ogawa <bkogawa@primenet.com> http://www.primenet.com/~bkogawa/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
