I currently have small network at home (4 pc - WinNt 4.0 server, Win2000
Pro, Win98 SE, and FreeBSD 3.3). The NT Server is my PDC / Proxy Server /
File Server / Print Server (don't laugh). My Primary machine is the Win2000
box. My wife's machine is the Win98 box. I'm using Wingate 3.0 as my proxy
server software on the NT machine, but I'm getting more and more frustrated
with the things that Wingate can't do (IRC send/receive, some internet
gaming, etc. Not to mention the overhead it requires - Stuff runs awfully
slow sometimes). I know that it's possible to set up FreeBSD to act as a
firewall/proxy server but I'm at a loss to figure this out. I've got Kernel
PPPD working but as far as IP aliasing, packet forwarding, etc, goes, I'm
kinda "Gump-ish". I've read the man pages, tutorials, and several other
resources but it's just not coming together for me. Can anyone walk me
through this or point to another resource that I might have missed? Thanks
in advance.
