Hi, I'm trying to nut out a soultion to a ppp problem here, I have a class C network, and a temporary 'permanent' dial up connection to an internet connected site. What I want to be able to do is dial that site using fbsd's ppp, and have my network be connected to the internet via that link. Now, the problem is, the other site assigns my side 203.22.80.21, whereas my network is 203.1.96.0,and the server is 203.1.96.5. For other reasons, I would prefer to have my end of the ppp link set as 203.1.96.4. (I will have a 'permanent', permanent link again soon). At the moment I dial up using my '95 box, talking to both sides of the network. The '95 box can't forward packets obviously. I wish it could. The big question is. How do I set up ppp and routing, so that the FBSD box can dial the other network, accept the given number, and route packets across the link, so that my network behaves as it should, visible to the rest of the internet. Or can I even do that? I've gone around in so many circles that I'm lost now. Thanks for any help on this one, Regards, Robert -- http://www.chalmers.com.au Books-New & Secondhand Support Whirled Peas. Agents for CIBTC. Associate of Amazon.com, and Partner Program with iBS.
