Hello, I read the section of NAT in the handbook which tells me that natd is for NICs and people using modems should use the ppp -nat. All I wanna do is be able to browse the internet when I've got my windows laptop connected to my FBSD box. The NAT section says I need to recompile my kernel with the following options: The following options must be in the kernel configuration file: options IPFIREWALL options IPDIVERT Additionally, at choice, the following may also be suitable: options IPFIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_ACCEPT options IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE if you use ppp -nat does this have to be done? What about the /etc/rc.conf, what goes in there? The NAT section you need to put this in it: gateway_enable="YES" firewall_enable="YES" firewall_type="OPEN" natd_enable="YES" natd_interface="fxp0" natd_flags="" Does this still apply when using ppp -nat? I guess the last 3 would not but the first 3 could apply am I right? Thanks __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
