I am running a private network (192.168.x.x) and recently added a high speed ethernet internet connection on a static public IP address. I would like to set up IP Aliasing (so all my private machines can access the internet) and setup firewall protection for my private network. I bought a Version 4 FreeBSD Power Pak and discovered that it contained a 3rd Edition "Complete FreeBSD" book. A also downloaded and installed the latest FreeBSD 4.1.1 in a multi homed machine and I downloaded and printed the latest FreeBSD Handbook. I figured out how to re-compile the kernel with "options IPFIREWALL", "options IPDIVERT" and even figured out how to get my sound card working but the description of rc.firewall in my Version 3 Complete FreeBSD book looks quite different than /etc/rc.firewall on my system. I thought I'd start by adding the three lines at the top of page 507 to my rc.firewall file but now I'm not sure of where to put them. /sbin/ipfw -f flush /sbin/ipfw add divert natd all from any to any via ed0 /sbin/ipfw add pass all from any to any I use ed0 instead of tun0 as used in the book. Am I looking at the wrong manual? Did rc.firewall change between BSDi v3 and 4. Allowing private network machines to access the internet via IP Aliasing and a multi-homes BSDi box sounds simple enough. Perhaps someone out there could point me in the right direction...
