Hi guys, With my current ISP I get 3 IP's, and I want to setup my FBSD box to simply pass packets between NIC's, pretty much so I can just utilize ipfilter as a firewall for my other machine. I've got both cards setup in the FBSD box, fxp0 and fxp1. fxp0 will be the one connecting to the modem, and fxp1 connected to a hub for other machines. I've read some tutorials, but they seem to only cover setting up private IP's for the internal network, but this wont work as I want to have my other machine still get it's own external IP. I'm thinking I need to enable it as a gateway, add BRIDGE in the kernel, then set ipfilter to pass all from fxp0 to fxp1 and vice versa, but I wanted to hear from you guys who may have done this. Please CC me as I'm not currently subscribed. Thanks, Troy To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
