share internet with win xp

2004-01-16 Thread Carvalho Paulo
   Hello everyone,

   I would like to share an internet connection
between freebsd and windows xp.
   This is my scenario:
I have a ADSL internet connection in a winXP pro
box.
I have another box with FreeBSD 4.9 recently
installed that is not configured for networking or
anything.
I have a point-to-point network with those two
boxes (that is not working at the moment and I dont
know how to make it work).
I do not want to change the connetion to the
internet to the freebsd box. I like to leave it in the
winxp box.
I dont know if this matters but my internet ip is
dynamic.
I cant purchase any hardware.

   if this is possible, I would like to know what I
have to configure and/or install in the freebsd box to
make this work. Also I would apreciate to either an
explanation or pointers to documentation that help me
configure and/or install everything that I will need.

   Thanks for reading this and for a possible reply.

XFree86 configuration

2004-01-13 Thread Carvalho Paulo
   Hello everyone,
   I just installed FreeBSD 4.9, and when I try to
cofigure X through sysinstall it gives an error
message in the end. The messege says that an error has
ocurred and asks if I want to try again. I tried
several times and then gave up.
   What I want to know is if there is any way that I
can know what went wrong so that I can do it right.
The error message does not give any clue as to what
hapened.
   Thanks in advance for taking time to read this
message and for a possible reply.

   Paulo de Carvalho.

Trouble: cant do anything

2003-10-29 Thread Carvalho Paulo
  Hi,
  I kind of newbie to freebsd, so go easy on me.
  First of all I was having troable to install version
5.1 on my machine, but then i finaly got it (or at
list I thought so). When I boot the system it asks me
to write the path of my shell, and since I don't have
any installed I just press ENTER. Then I try to create
a file and the system says that it's a read only file
system. How do I enter the normal system? 
  Thats is just one of my problems, I will send more
questians later...
  Thank you.
