Hi! > I have one NIC and I'm using a dialup connection. Here's the output: > > fxp0: flags=8802<BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 > ether 00:a0:c9:d9:7b:97 > media: Ethernet autoselect (none) > status: no carrier status: no carrier and media (none) means that your fxp0 interface thinks it is not connected to any network. Maybe you have bad cable? You need to fix this before you can get any further. Once that problem is solved, I *think* you need to assign a non-routable IP address to fxp0 and another address on the same network to your laptop. But I'll leave explaining the details to someone who has actually used FreeBSD to share PPP connection - I've never done it myself. -- Toomas Aas | toomas.aas@raad.tartu.ee | http://www.raad.tartu.ee/~toomas/ * If you cannot change your mind, are you sure you have one?
