FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE Until recently I managed a very similar setup. I think all you need is natd_interface=rl0 natd_flags=-log_ipfw_denied -log_denied The latter is just so that you can see spurious connection attempts in /var/log/security. Check man natd for more info. Also, you'll have to either statically configure your wife's PC to use 192.168.1.2 (or whatever), default gateway/route 192.168.1.1 and proper DNS. Alternatively install and configure dhcpd, or, which I like more for a simple application like that, dnsmasq.

Can your wife's PC ping your PC? If not then that is the first problem to solve. Can your wife's PC ping an outside address given as numbers? (Like ping -c 4 18.7.22.69) If she can ping by number address but not by host name then the problem is her DNS configuration. If she can't ping by number address and you can then your PC is not forwarding things correctly - I've done that before but I don't remember all the details. The more information you can give us the more likely we will be able to help. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
