I am trying to get a mini-intranet setup using a freeBSD gateway to the
outer world (utilizing the intranet webserver, databases, etc).

Background:
The internal network has 10-12 win9x machines running peer to peer, a file
server(a quantum SNAP! server - I'm pretty sure it's a unix box but that is
irrelevant, it mount_nfs's fine and the Windoze machines like it too), and
the freeBSD machine.
I am trying to go out using tun0 being assigned a dynamic IP using 'user
PPP' by my ISP. I've been through the docs a few times but I seem to be
missing something. My ppp does work fine. I can get out and ping, ftp, etc
(from the freeBSD machine). I made the necessary changes to my windows
machines per the 'PPP Pedantic Primer' but I am unable to 'get out' to the
net on any of the other machines. I am certain I have the windoze machines
configured properly as I have a freeBSD gateway at home - literally @home -
with my windoze machine getting out fine. There, however, I have a static
ip and can hardcode a bit more in my /etc/rc.conf (the other difference -->
at home I'm going out from another ethernet instead of the modem but that
shouldn't? really matter). I _do_ have 'add default HISADDR' in my
/etc/ppp/ppp.conf. I am using a firewall also but it is current set to
"open" while I simply get everything else up. On the windoze machine, I
have an existing lanbridge client (which gets out through a lanbridge
server on another win machine), which I remove when I change the TCP/IP
settings to go out through the freeBSD gateway. Not sure if that has
anything to do with my problem.

I have pasted the seemingly crucial conf files below.

I truly appreciate any help, suggestions, or comments.


Thank you,
