I suppose.  All I want to do is use my one ip(136.165.243.183) as a
'router' ?  My ethernet card in my unix machine is defined as
'192.168.1.1' and my 95 box as 192.168.1.2 with a gateway of 192.168.1.1.
I relize no-one will be able to get to my win95 machine, that's fine, what
I want to do is, say, I want to use netscape from my 95 machine, or maybe
even play quake, all while using my freebsd machine w/ my one ip as a
router.

I got a PPP program called ppp+packetAlias which did ip masquerading, and
it worked great, I could get my 95 machine out on the net, the only
problem was no-one could get to either machine. 

I hope this better explains it :D

thanks!
