I recently changed my dialup router box from Debian Linux Frozen to FreeBSD. I've had a pleasant experience so far. cvsupping to the latest sources was incredibly easy, as was the process of making a new world and kernel. Additionally, the boot time's quite a bit better, too. I'm currently using UserPPP with its included NAT. I encountered problems, however, when I tried to play a game of Starcraft over battlenet. It said that it couldn't connect on UDP 6112, which is understandable, although it threw me for a loop momentarily, as Linux's IPMasq did this just fine. I'd heard (from FreeBSD users) that userppp's included NAT is somewhat less than capable, so I tried setting up natd with userppp, following the instructions for natd in _The_Complete_FreeBSD_. I had no luck at all--boxes on the internal network couldn't see outside. So I tried setting up kernel PPP, but that was even worse; I couldn't dial outside at all. I've googled, searched the FreeBSD documentation, and the mailing list archives to no avail. Is there something that I've missed? Regards, -- Kyle R.
