I just went and checked it, and it was set... I told the installer to set
the machine up as a gateway when I installed it.

I also now have the PPP working... but I can't get the ed0 to route out over

I am going to keep a compilation of this "help" session, and submit it.

BTW- What's up with the BSD FTP servers? My two favs' ftp.cdrom.com and
ftp.synapse.net are down... :( Anyway, I had to install some ports from some
server down in Brazil...
