I'm trying to get my FreeBSD gateway/firewall machine set up so that it will allow my wife's VPN access to work; this requires IPSEC packets to get through. Has anybody done this? Any helpful hints? I turned on the IPSEC and the tunneling options in the kernel, and I'm letting "esp" and "udp" packets through. (For now, I'm basically letting all of 'em through.) FWIW, I tried this in Linux and couldn't ever get it to work; this was a motivation for trying FreeBSD. It's still not working, but I can at least follow the network traffic better in FreeBSD, which at least let me fix my rules. (The rules I used under Linux were bad.) My gateway machine is multiplexing multiple internal-network machines to a single cable modem connection by using the command to translate packets. I suspect that something is going wrong there. [Sorry this is a little vague; for other reasons the machine isn't currently booted into FreeBSD so I can't double-check the precise settings at the moment.] -- "Brian, the man from babble-on" bts@babbleon.org Brian T.
