Hello list, I recently got broadband to my home and I therefor needs a firewall. Unfortenately my ISP only provide dynamic ip's and that gives me som headache. Here's what I think I want my lan to look like: 2 workstations, 1 fileserver and 1 gw/fw. ws - hub \ ws - hub - gw/fw - ISP DHCP fs - hub / So what i need is my fw to get 3 ip's (i'd prefer to use these 'real' so i can access my workstations directly via ssh if needed) It put's them in the dhcpd.conf file and restarts it, changes the ipchains table flushes and rereads. Now how to accomplish this? I suppose I'm not the first to stumble upon a naught cheap ISP. Or is this a really bad idea? Is there a better aproach? My main problem is that I only have about 1 hour a day of 'free' time in my home right now so if there's a nice "I'll hold your hand through all this" guide to point me to I'd be very. I'm pretty much a newbie when it comes to ipchains and dhcp clients... /Jon To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
