Yes the other machines on the same subnet can talk directly....I can ping, telnet, ssh to the freebsd gateway and vice versa. What is the most important thing that I should take into consideration for this freebsd box to work as a gateway??? Is it the gateway_enable="YES", will this work without any firewall rules installed??? Thanks again for your support. --------------------->jOEl On Mon, 3 Jul 2000, Crist J.
