I've got it set up to dial up to our DSL connection, and the IP aliasing allows our 5 workstations to use the same connection. I've only got one bug to iron out: For some reason, we're not able to access certain web sites, we're given DNS errors. Popular sites like FreeDrive.com and Real.com are inaccessible. I thought at first it must be some kind of firewall thing that FreeBSD does, but I haven't even set up any of the firewall options. Is this normal? Is there a way around this?
