I'm trying to play AC using a FreeBSD gateway and dynamic port aliasing =
. I can get into the game for a short period , but after about a minute =
, I get the " Server has disconnected " dialog .=20

There is a bug in all currently available FreeBSD versions that causes =
dynamic UDP aliases to time out even though there is downstream traffic =
through the aliased ports. A fix to alias_db.c has been committed to =
FreeBSD -- current as of 5/20/99.=20



Dear FreeBSD
            I have a free bsd router between my familys intrenet and the =
internet( and so far it has worked bueatifully). I have yet to hear any =
words on the dynamic port aliasing from the Asheron's Call people. I =
wonder if there has been a fix for this problem. I have had no problem =
with my router at all( it has helpedme at every turn) accept this. But =
to my little brother this ONE thing is to much, to me i dont mind. If =
there has been a fix for this problem please respond (if you think I am =
totally nuts becuase noone has said a word point me to the right people =
and I will go where i am pointed)
