Sorry, I forgot some information: 1) all machines involved are tracking 3.3-stable 2) I am able to nfs mount disks among other machines on the LAN 3) natd/ipfw seem to work fine to provide NAT 4) to start, I have been using the "open" firewall setting in rc.firewall (plan to restrict when I settle in the appropriate config) A. -- Allan E.
