I have a server running Samba, Apache and some other services.
I would like to use it as a dial out gateway for the windows
boxes. I have ppp configured and it will connect to the ISP.
I can also run ppp -auto -nat and it will connect when one
of the windows boxes tries to pull down a web page.

The problem is when I try to login to one of the windows
boxes and it talks to samba to check the password. The FreeBSD
box running ppp would connect to the ISP. I added some dial
filters and that stoped the dial out when trying to login
via samba. But the login still does not work. The windows box
will sit there until a timout. If I kill ppp then the windows
box talks to samba and everything is ok.

I thought that I needed to set up some in and out filters to
allow all trafic to/from the FreeBSD box to pass but that does
not fix it.

What do I need to do to allow ppp to run in auto and nat mode,
but still be able to talk to services that are on that host
without ppp doing nat on them?

Thanks,

# Config:
# FreeBSD 3.3 RELEASE
# Samba 2.0.5
