Hi, I build my first FreeBSD server. I tried. I got both of my NIC's working. One of them gets his configuration from the DHCP server of my cable provider. The other one I managed to bind IP to for my local network. If I connect trough a hub to this NIC I can send a ping and get a replay. But when I configure my IE to use this FreeBSD as a proxy I get the message page not found. I also can't ping a server or an IP-number on the net. I guess it has something to do with the DNS configuration. I downloaded and installed a DHCP server for my FreeBSD machine. But I don't know how to configure it. The DNS server does it has to be the DNS server of my provider? Do I need to configure a gateway? Please help me. I don't know nothing about FreeBSD (trying to learn) I know the basics of networking. Yeah a real newbie GRTZ Ton Spaan GRTZ Ton Spaan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
