I have 2 NICs > in each box - 1 for external and 1 for internal. In my case I just an other ethernet card. Which would bring the total number of network cards to 3 instead of 2. This unfortunatly means that (with this plan) you would need an other network connection between the two machines. Assume the following: FreeBSD Machine on 192.168.0.0 <ethernet> to 192.168.0.0 <ethernet> to FreeBSD Machine 10.0.0.0 <internet connection> FreeBSD Machine on 10.0.0.0 <ethernet> to 10.0.0.0 <ethernet> to FreeBSD Machine 192.168.0.0 <internet connection> And you can buypass a hub/switch by using a cross-over cable. A cross over cable is simply an ethernet cable that maps outbound (TX & RX) to incomming (RX & TX). > Just have those two questions above inline..... thanks again.
