Hello! I have installed FreeBSD 4.7 recently, and it seems it does not want to work as a gateway. I have two network cards in my FreeBSD computer, fxp0 for LAN and sis0 for the cable modem. I am new to FreeBSD, so I am confused what the difference between gateways and routers is (I was thinking they link to the same thing). I can ping my FreeBSD box from winxp, I can ping internet from remote session to FreeBSD, but I cannot ping internet from my winxp. My winxp has ip 192.168.0.1, netmask 255.255.255.0, and gateway 192.168.0.18 settings. Now FreeBSD /etc/rc.conf follows: gateway_enable="YES" kern_securelevel_enable="NO" nfs_reserved_port_only="YES" ifconfig_sis0="DHCP" ifconfig_fxp0="inet 192.168.0.18 netmask 255.255.255.0" #router_enable="YES" # from handbook gateway_enable="YES" firewall_enable="YES" firewall_type="OPEN" natd_enable="YES" natd_interface="sis0" natd_flags="" #/ handbook The last two lines from dmesg: IP packet filtering initialized, divert disabled, rule-based forwarding enabled, default to deny, logging disabled ip_fw_ctl: invalid command %netstat -rn Routing tables Internet: Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Netif Expire default 68.105.xxx.x UGSc 2 0 sis0 68.105.xxx/24 link#1 UC 1 0 sis0 68.105.xxx.x 00:03:xx:xx:xx:xx UHLW 3 0 sis0 1197 68.105.xxx.xxx 127.0.0.1 UGHS 0 0 lo0 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 UH 1 0 lo0 192.168.0 link#2 UC 1 0 fxp0 192.168.0.1 00:04:xx:xx:xx:xx UHLW 3 28742 fxp0 1005 Thank you! -- Constantine To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
