I was wondering if any really experienced FreeBSD users might be willing discuss some networking stuff via email and give me a few pointers. I run a Pentium 166 FreeBSD 4.4-RELEASE system with two Netgear FA311 cards as a natd gateway for my cable modem. I had originally installed X with plans of running monitoring software for security and informational purposes, having private use daemons, etc etc ... but mostly I've just wound up using it for xchat since I didn't know much about what software to run, alternatives to default daemons, etc etc. So I was just wondering if someone with some experience might be willing to offer some input on the subject and field some additional questions. Thanks again to everyone on the list for their consistantly solid info. -John To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
