Kania" Subject: FreeBSD 2.1.0 as a LAN to Internet Gateway (Router) Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk What exactly must I do to run a FeeBSD (v2.1.0) box as a network gateway. Please be as precise/detailed as possible. The network is a simple one with no subnet or anything exotic. Additionally, I will be running my own DNS and mail servers, should this information be required for you to answer my question. Must I compilee a kernel with the gateways option? There must be more to it than that! I have had an aweful time attempting to glean this information from man pages, the Net, etc. Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.
