You should be looking at the "NAT" (Network Address Translation, formerly known as IP
Aliasing) features of user PPP. If you can get you're PPP working fine, generally all you
nead to do is make sure packet-forwarding is enabled in rc.conf and enable NAT/on-demand
dialing in /etc/ppp/ppp.conf.

Take a look around, and let us know if you need any more help.

Subject: Connection Sharing


I am setting up a small home network which needs to share a connection, and I would like
to do this through FreeBSD.  I was reading through the documentation and could not find
any sections on how to use FreeBSD as a connection-sharing server, although I'm sure I
likely missed it due to my small BSD-vocabulary.  If you could send me a link, or point me
in the right direction as to where I can get such help, I would greatly appreciate it.
