If you can ping the IP address and not browse to it, this is bizzare. Can
you telnet to any machines on the internet. Maybe you should share your lan
configuration with us including your ipfwadm commands.

but firstly make sure you read the how-to on it, as without a dns server
configured on the workstation, its not going to work anyway, it seems you
havent read the how-to's.

again, what is your ipfwadm configs and lan setup.
