i'm also new but i'll take a stab at this since no one is answering: > I'm new at this so please ber with me :) > ...snipped... > 1- When I use /stand/sysinstall to configure my interfaces it ask me for a > default gateway. I'm setting ed1 to use 172.25.0.1 and ed2 to use172.25.0.2 > but it seems that the last interface to brought up by /stand/sysinstall sets > the default gateway for both interfaces?

Shouldn't there be one defaultrouter entry for each interface? > there can only be one default route per *machine*. so even if you have two or more nics in your box there should only be one default route. your default gateway is correct which is your router. don't set any default gateway for ed2 as from your box it already knows where to go for which ip address. so in your /etc/rc.conf you would have something like this: ifconfig_ed1="inet 172.25.0.2 netmask 255.255.0.0" defaultrouter="172.25.0.1" ifconfig_ed2="inet 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0" check the ip address. i think you got it all mixed up. > 2- Which interface is my natd interface?
