Hi guys, me again :) well I've been reading up on compiling a kernel for nat and ipfw. I'm running a d-link 704 router now. I want some input here... I have an extra box (p200 - 128ram) for a router firewall.. I was thinking about it being my Gateway/Router/Firewall for my other 3 computers. I run a webserver box, a ftp server box, and my workstation box behind my d-link. What advantages/disadvantages would I have by running freebsd in place of the d-link? How do I connect this? Do I use 2 eithernets 1 to net and 1 to a hub? I also have 1 crossover rj45 cable for card to card connection that I haven't tried yet...
