I'm sorry that this is not a strictly FreeBSD question, but I don't know of a forum better equipped to answer it. Neither FAQ nor Handbook seemed to cover the subject. I am a poor exile with only a modem/PPP connection. Works well, but only one computer on my home network can use it. I have a small internal net, using 10.0.0.*/30 (:-o), but its hosts can't get to the Internet. What's the name of the process by which my PPP client can enable other hosts on the internal network to get out, for WWW, ftp, telnet, ntp, or whatever? As I understand it, a "router" in the PPP client translates internal IP addresses (10.0.0.*) into whatever single IP address that DHCP has given it. TIA.. Chuck
