You can do this immediately by issuing the following command: # sysctl net.inet.ip.forwarding=3D1 =2E.. and then you can add the following line to /etc/rc.conf to make sure that this sysctl is set on each reboot: gateway_enable=3D"YES" Nathan --=20 gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys D8527E49 --6TME3aayZmn2Ikqb Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFAPLX/O0ZIEthSfkkRAiN2AJ9ni+oQHla54L0hzOHGMLf5pi78mACaAlRL +4u+6BL7DMUdLRvxZXvBpdg= =ggio -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --6TME3aayZmn2Ikqb--
