Hi everyone,

I am trying to setup a FreeBSD gateway that will have a firewall running as
well. The outside interface is connected to a cable modem, and the inside
interface goes to my internal LAN. I have followed the how-to at
http://www.mostgraveconcern.com/freebsd , and everything works fine, untill I
switch my firewall from type open to simple.

Basically, when I switch to \"simple\" I lose all network connectivity. I cannot
even ping out from the gateway.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I can do to correct this?

Thanks,
Victor
