I run FreeBSD 4-STABLE connected to the Internet via DSL with a static IP. I use ipfw and natd to grant Internet access for my LAN. I am now moving and will not have DSL but will have dialup access with a dynamic IP. I hope to regain DSL or similar service soon but can't do it right away. What is the easiest way I can convert this system to provide the same kind of nat/firewall service based on a dynamic dialup connection? I assume it will involve userland ppp, which has NAT capability built in; but I'd prefer to minimize the impact on my system configuration, since I expect this dialup access to be a temporary arrangement. I'm also not yet a pro with the features of userland ppp, having never had to use it before. Please reply to me directly or cc me, as my ability to follow freebsd-questions will be more than a little impaired for a while starting later today. Thanks very much in advance for any help. -- Doug Lee dgl@visi.com http://www.visi.com/~dgl To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
