There are very few Computer Science students in this house, and I'm probably the only person who actively uses something other than WinXP or MacOS X. -- Matt Coe, CCNA Member-At-Large, Dalhousie University CS Society Fall 2003 'Ford!

Every things works well , but i have a problem.I can't control my servers remotely.I have activated SSH and telnet but i can't login to my server with root account from my home or every other where. Each time i want to check my servers , i must go to my server's room and this is not good for a network administrator , i didn't have this problem with Linux. Out of the box, FreeBSD disallows remote root logins. Instead, you can make a separate user part of the "wheel" group and su into root from there. I wouldn't necessarily advise doing all of your activity as the wheel'd user, though I haven't been playing with my FreeBSD machines on a sufficiently frequent basis to be able to say, one way or the other, if that would definitely cause problems. -- Matt Coe, CCNA Member-At-Large, Dalhousie University CS Society Fall 2003 'Ford!

This one just gets too long after a thread of 5 or more. I can relate to the others but, I just don't read any of the thread to start with if the subject or the original post doesn't concern me. :) That's just me though. Not if the replier (is that even a word? It is now! Ha!) edits carefully for context. Leave out the bits of old messages that no longer relate to the discussion at hand and your replies should be nice and coherent. I've been practicing that for years. -- Matt Coe, CCNA Member-At-Large, Dalhousie University CS Society Fall 2003 'Ford!

4.4-RELEASE as a NAT/gateway
Hey, I'm having some issues convincing my old Pentium 90 to behave as a basic NAT box and gateway.. I've been a CCNA for nearly three years now and I still haven't had a chance to properly play with other people's networks, so I'm trying to make my own... but to no avail. I downloaded the 5.x manual to help me set up the config files and install the appropriate ports, but the machine doesn't seem to want to forward packets. ipfw kicks in fine, natd seems to kick in fine.. I can hand-boot routed and that seems to behave properly.. but nothing goes from dc0 to rl0, for some reason beyond me. Here's a snippet of my rc.conf if it helps: ifconfig_rl0="DHCP" ifconfig_dc0="inet 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0" gateway_enable=YES natd_enable=YES natd_interface=rl0 natd_flags="" firewall_enable=YES firewall_type=OPEN Is there any thing wrong with those lines? I could type out my entire rc.conf if it's necessary... Anyone else have similar problems? -- Matt Coe, CCNA Member-At-Large, Dalhousie University CS Society Fall 2003 'Ford!
