I use a public IP (207.208.254.234) gateway (207.208.254.1). From this machine I can access the Internet. However the machines on my private network cannot. My public interface is fxp0 (intel Ether Express Pro 10/100 B), and my private interface is xl0 (3Com 3c905B-TX Fast EtherLink XL) using 192.168.1.2 Any hots on the private segment 192.168.1 can successfully ping the public interface fxp0. The problem is that I cannot rich anything beyond fxp0, not even the IP address of the gateway on the ISP that is on the same segment as fxp0. For example a traceroute hug.freebsd.org fails. I have configured all the necessary files for IPFW ant natd and rebuilt the kernel successfully. I read in natd man pages that there is a -dynamic option to use, but I did not see it in the configuration walkthrough in the Handbook. Where else should I look?8 Can someone please help? Thanks, Konan ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
