You would have to enable the following in your kernel: options IPDIVERT options IPFIREWALL and then get a NATd (network address translation daemon) package. Unless you are using modem as one of your interfaces -- then you can use -alias option in ppp (aka iijppp) -- Yan P.S. - natd can be found at either www.awfulhak.org/natd or at ftp://kn6-045.ktvlpr.inet.fi/pub/natd On Mon, 14 Jul 1997, Steven Harris wrote: > Howdy, > > I have set up a FreeBSD box as an internet gateway machine for a in-office > LAN.
