There is nothing wrong with having ANY IP address for a gateway (except .0 & .255) Make sure you have a default entry in your routing table. Use netstat -r, and look for something like: default Atlas UGS 0 207 ef0 If you dont see and entry use the following 'route add default xxx.xxx.xxx.10' And that should solve the problem. Also just for S&G make sure there is an entry for the loopback interface (127.0.0.1) Also, are you using this machine for outgoing PPP dialup to the Internet? If so, check that ipforwarding is enabled via 'sysctl net.inet.ip.forwarding' It should return 1 for forwarding, 0 for no forwarding, if it is 0 and this box is your gatekey use the 'sysctl net.inet.ip.forwarding=1' to enable it! Question? Call or Write Me! <FLAME ON> It's better to ask someone ALL the important questions, and understand what they want, instead of flaming them.
