I have a few questions about networking with FreeBSD. I currently own 5 Machines, 3 Windows 98 Machines, 1 Windows NT Server 4.0, and 1 FreeBSD 3.3 Machine I Have 2 Hubs a Linksys 10 /100 autosensing 5 port hub. and a Netgear 100 hub. All machines have 10 / 100 cards The 3 windows 98 machines have Static ip address's setup on them that i purchased from my cable modem provider. So all 3 of them can connect to the internet with ease What i would like to do is give FreeBSD 1 static ip address and have it connect The nt machine, and 1 windows 98 machine to the internet. I only have one network card in the freebsd machine.. I would like to keep it that way, as i'm out of cable and nics to install. I would also like the windows machines to be able to see the freebsd machine on the network.... I.e. Telnet into if i want to ect.. Now my problem.. I can't figure out if i need Ip aliasing, i think i do since i have only 1 nic in the freebsd machine.. And NATD is very confusing to setup for me its almost like reading greek So basically if i can telnet into FreeBSD from any of my other machines on the network I'd be a happy camper.. I'm using 192.168.68.0 for my internal ip addressing. and my cable provider has issued 24.*.*.* for my 3 purchased ip addresses. So my NT Machine is using 192.168.68.1 and FreeBSD isn't setup yet as i'm not sure if i need to set it as 192.168.68.0 and then ALIAS 24.*.*.* or what.. If someone can give me a website or a comprehensive run down on what needs to be installed and setup.. And or instuctions on using NATD, and IPALIAS Would be most appreciative. Also i'm sure i'll have to setup routes and stuff.. Argh its all so confusing where to start and what to do..
