I am having problems with network configuration. First, the following is how I am attempting to set up my network: One FreeBSD box acting as gateway and firewall with two ethernet cards. The outside ethernet card is xl0 with a static ip address. The internal nic card is dc0 with ip 192.168.0.1. One Debian linux box internally with one ethernet card at ip 192.168.0.2. Both machines are connected to a hub. The xl0 interface on the BSD box is connected to my dsl modem. However, I cannot ping either machine from either machine. The symptoms that I am observing are: when I ping from the linux machine to the BSD box, the light on the hub blinks. However, when I ping from the BSD box to the linux machine, the light on the hub does not blink at all. Also, when I try to add 192.168 as a net to the BSD box's routing table, it adds 192.168.0.1 to the lo0 interface automagically. I don't know why. Of course, thanks in advance for any and all help with this frustrating little problem.
