Hey brainy people of FreeBSD,

I am having great trouble setting up a gateway. Here's what I have and how
it's set up:

Box 1 (The server - and the one I want as the gateway)
hostname : freeserver.wintellect.com
IP address : 192.168.1.1
OS : FreeBSD

Box 2 (The working box)
hostname : freework.wintellect.com
IP address : 192.168.1.2
OS : FreeBSD

I can connect to the Internet on Box1 using:

bash> ppp -nat
ppp> dial papchap

which gives me a tunnel connection (tun0) by default, and then I use
netscape navigator. Box2 has a line in the /etc/rc.conf file to define the
default router as follows:
defaultrouter="192.168.1.1"

The problem is that Box2 can't connect to the internet via Box1 - where am I
going wrong?

The 'netstat -r' command from Box1 when it is connected to the internet is
as follows:

Internet:
Destination        Gateway                       Flags      Refs     Use
Netif     Expire

Phil.
