The two Win98 machines can see each other with Network Neighborhood but cannot see the FreeBSD. The FreeBSD machine is set as follows in /etc/rc.local: #The hub ifconfig ed0 inet 192.168.1.10 netmask 255.255.255.0 alias #Win98 machine 1 route add -host 192.168.1.3 192.168.1.10 2 #Win98 machine 2 route add -host 192.168.1.2 192.168.1.10.2 The FreeBSD machine can ping the hub, but when pinging the Windows machines it shows '192.168.1.3 (192.168.1.3): 56 data bytes' and then just sits there, CTL-C responds '---192.168.1.3 ping statistics--- 9 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100% packet loss' If someone can give a step-by-step to set up the LAN it would be much appreciated.
