 I'm experiencing the problem now, here's the info (this is all
done on the 'gateway' machine) 

The result of netstat -f inet -n:

[ponds.dignus.com]$ netstat -f inet -n
Active Internet connections

  My /etc/resolv.conf looks like:

domain vnet.net
nameserver 166.82.1.3
nameserver 166.82.1.8


 And, my /etc/host.conf looks like:

# $Id: host.conf,v 1.2 1993/11/07 01:02:57 wollman Exp $
# For our situation, use /etc/hosts first...
hosts
# Then, use the nameserver
bind
# If you have YP/NIS configured, uncomment the next line
# nis


 Just for completeness, here's the result of ifconfig -a:

ed0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        inet 10.0.0.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.0.0.255
