I am having what appears to be a routing problem with a PPP gateway and am
hoping someone can shed some light on the issue. I have a small network of
windows/UNIX systems behind a FreeBSD gateway box. The gateway box is
providing DNS and DHCP services to the other systems without any problem. I
have tried to set up the gateway box to do PPP-on-demand for the entire
network with limited success. PPP works flawlessly on the gateway box.
When I am on the "inside", however, I get nothing. I am able to connect to
the gateway, but no further. Interestingly enough, when I "ping" a system
from the inside box, I get proper name resolution, but "Host is Unreachable"
errors as well. This leads me to believe that I have a routing issue from
the gateway to the inside boxes. I think I am missing something in my
rc.conf settings. Heck, if I had any clue what was wrong I would not be
posting.
Obligatory Diagram:
ISP
| <- PPP on Demand (ISP assigned IP address of
a.b.c.d)
FreeBSD gateway <- DNS and DHCP servers to inside
(border.mydomain.com)
| <- gateway internal ip: 192.168.169.1
----------------
| | |
Win95 UNIX Win95 <- all "inside" boxes (all in the range of:
192.168.169.x)
rc.conf file:
network_interfaces="ed0 lo0 tun0"
ifconfig_ed0="inet 192.168.169.1 netmask 255.255.255.0"
ifconfig_lo0="inet 127.0.0.1"
ifconfig_tun0=""
hostname="border.mydomain.com"
linux_enable="YES"
dhcpd_enable="YES"
lpd_enable="YES"
moused_port="/dev/psm0"
moused_enable="YES"
saver="blank"
gateway_enable="YES"
defaultrouter="NO"
named_enable="YES"
route_enable="NO"
ppp_enable="YES"
ppp_nat="YES"
ppp_mode="auto"
ppp_profile="demand"
Any assistance would be great!
Thanks,
