hi, I just installed stock FreeBSD 9.0 on a PowerEdge server with two network cards: bce0 is directly connected to isp's gateway bce1~3 are connected to the inside port of a router configured as 192.168.1.0/24 network with 192.168.1.1 as gateway If the ENTIRE content of /etc/rc.conf is: hostname="test.com" ifconfig_bce0="inet 1.2.3.4 netmask 255.255.255.0" defaultrouter="1.2.3.1" #the above numbers are supplied by isp ifconfig_bce1="inet 192.168.1.4 netmask 255.255.255.0" static_routes="interface1" route_interface1="-net 192.168.1.0/24 192.168.1.1" then the machine can do all public network activities without problem, but doesn't appear to be able to connect to the router at all. In fact, if I do: tcpdmp -l -i eth1 host 192.168.1.1 and then do "telnet 192.168.1.1 443", there are two wierd results: 1. the tcpdump catches nothing 2. the telnet window got the following result: Trying 192.168.1.1... telnet: connect to address 192.168.1.1: Operation not permitted telnet: Unable to connect to remote host routing table is the following: #netstat -rn Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Netif Expire default 1.2.3.1 UGS 0 193 bce0 1.2.3.0/24 link#1 U 0 0 bce0 1.2.3.4 link#1 UHS 0 0 lo0 127.0.0.1 link#5 UH 0 0 lo0 192.168.1.0/24 192.168.1.1 UGS 0 1 bce1 192.168.1.4 link#2 UHS 0 1 lo0 No firewall is configured. Also unless there is a known relevant bug of the stock 9.0, we want to stick to this version for the moment due to some other concern. Could someone help to enlighten what I did wrong? Thank you!
