Re: FreeBSD 5.1 <-> WinXP Networking Problem UPDATE #2
Hi Mark, I put in: natd_flags="-dynamic" But I could not get it up and running. Btw, previously, what I've been doing to get the machine on line was typing in: # ipfw add 100 allow tcp from any to any via any 00100 allow tcp from any to any # ipfw add 100 allow ip from any to any via any 00100 allow ip from any to any I'm doing this because this allows me to surf the web and download my Email respectively. So when I do an ipfw, I get: # ipfw -a list 00100 308 68064 allow tcp from any to any 00100 38 3187 allow ip from any to any 65535 337 23993 deny ip from any to any Now, after I made the change you suggested and rebooted, I got: # ipfw -a list 00050 276 17396 divert 8668 ip from any to any via tun0 00100 134 14156 allow ip from any to any via lo0 00200 0 0 deny ip from any to 127.0.0.0/8 00300 0 0 deny ip from 127.0.0.0/8 to any 65000 0 0 allow ip from any to any 65535 0 0 deny ip from any to any Then I tried pinging out from my Win XP box to no avail. I even added: # ipfw add 100 allow tcp from any to any via any 00100 allow tcp from any to any # ipfw add 100 allow ip from any to any via any 00100 allow ip from any to any to get: 00050 286 17938 divert 8668 ip from any to any via tun0 00100 134 14156 allow ip from any to any via lo0 00100 0 0 allow tcp from any to any 00100 0 0 allow ip from any to any 00200 0 0 deny ip from any to 127.0.0.0/8 00300 0 0 deny ip from 127.0.0.0/8 to any 65000 0 0 allow ip from any to any 65535 0 0 deny ip from any to any but still no dice! I'm thinking I should probably Delete the following two lines from above: 00200 0 0 deny ip from any to 127.0.0.0/8 00300 0 0 deny ip from 127.0.0.0/8 to any and see what happends.

FreeBSD 5.1 <-> WinXP Networking Problem UPDATE #2
Hi Chuck,
Thanks for the suggestions.
First off - there was actually a typo in the line:
firewall_script="/etc/rc/firewall
I changed it to:
firewall_script="/etc/rc.firewall"
However, it made no difference to the WinXP box
ability to connect.
Next I tried commenting out that line altogether but
it still did not work(!) It would not go online.
I then checked out rc.firewall asper you suggestion
and looked under OPEN ... This is what I found:::
# If you just configured ipfw in the kernel as a tool
to solve network
# problems or you just want to disallow some
particular kinds of traffic
# then you will want to change the default policy to
open. You can also
# do this as your only action by setting the
firewall_type to ``open''.
#
#${fwcmd} add 65000 pass all from any to any
# Prototype setups.
#
case ${firewall_type} in
[Oo][Pp][Ee][Nn])
setup_loopback
${fwcmd} add 65000 pass all from any to any
;;
[...]
Do you see a problem in this set-up?
I am considering setting it up in SIMPLE mode but I
want to be able to run the machine in OPEN mode before
I get too fancy with security and firewalls ... you
know?
Thanks again for you help ... please advise.

The line here:
>> firewall_script="/etc/rc/firewall"
...tells IPFW to use a config file that doesn't
contain enough useful
rules.
Comment out that line, and examine /etc/rc.firewall
instead, and
reboot. Then
take a look at the rules being loaded by the OPEN
firewall type, which
should
include a divert rule...

Re: FreeBSD 5.1 <-> WinXP Networking Problem UPDATE #2

The interface creates tun0 when it dials but I tried
both "tun0" and "ppp0" and neither seemed to do the
trick.
Any other trouble shooting thoughts or ideas?

I believe you'll want:
natd_interface="ppp0"
or is it "tun0"? I don't remember (long time since
I've used ppp) but
the
upshot is that whatever interface ppp creates when it
dials, that's
what you
want natd_interface set to.

FreeBSD 5.1 <-> WinXP Networking Problem UPDATE
Hi Everyone ... thanks for your help thus far. I've
made some changes below. [I have Not made all the
changes that you've kindly suggested but enough that I
am able to ping back and forth ... if I have ignored
your suggestion and you still see a gapping error,
please feel free to reinterate, I won't hold it again
you!]
OK, the changes ...
-I got rid of the ifconfig_vr0
-I set ifconfig_ed0 to 192.168.0.1 (where as _vr0 was
initially set as the gateway)
- I tried pinging from Freebsd to 192.168.0.4 the
WinXP #2 machine. and got through!
- I tried pinging from the WindXP #2 to itself at
192.168.0.4 andit got through.
- I tried pinging from the WindXP #2 to ed0 at
192.168.0.1 andit got through!
BUT I still cannot get the WIN XP webbrowser to read
the internet.
What is wrong?
I think that the
natd_flags="redirect_port tcp 192.168.0.3:80 80"
should be:
natd_flags="redirect_port tcp 192.168.0.1:80 80"
I will try changing this and see what happends

Also, a small problem ---> I have a webserver running
on the Freebsd box but everytime I reboot, I get a new
IP address(from above: 6X.9X.11X.3X). The fixed IP
address always seems to be: 6X.23X.25X.12X. However,
I have my domain name set to redirect towardsthe
dynamic address so everytime I reboot, I have to tell
the DNS server that holds my domain name my new IP
address. Is there a way to configure it so that I
don't have to continuously change the IP address on
the DNS?
Should I just get rid of the line:
ifconfig_vr0="DHCP"
and set the DNS to 6X.23X.25X.12X? Would that do the
trick? Or should I get rid of ifconfig_ed0="DHCP"?
Thanks again

MY original Post
<><><><><><><>
I have a Freebsd 5.1 box connected to the internet.
It works. But I am now trying to network two other
Win XP machines as per the following network
hierarchy:
<><><>
Setup
<><><>
ISP-> DSL Modem -> FreeBSD box :
1) "vr0" 192.168.0.1 [Gateway machine address]
2) "ed0" 192.168.0.3 [Internal Network address]
connects to:->
4- port HUB ->
1)WinXP machine #1 192.168.0.2
2)Freebsd Box 192.168.0.3
3)WinXP machine #2 192.168.0.4
<><><>
Problem:
<><><>
I cannot communicate to the Internet from WinXP #2
(Have not tried to config WinXP #1 yet).
<><><>
Browser Config
<><><>
IE Brower Settings for WinXP #2 {Tools>Internet
Options>Connections>)
-I set the browser so that it never dials a connection
because it is suppose to be networked right?
- in the LAN Settings option, I set the Proxyserver
option with the address of the gateway of 192.168.0.1
with Port 80
<><><>
Dialouge
<><><>
>From Freebsd Machine
# ping 192.168.0.4
PING 192.168.0.4 (192.168.0.4): 56 data bytes
ping: sendto: Host is down
ping: sendto: Host is down
-at one point I was able to ping the freebsd machine
from WinXP #2 but then for some reason, I made a
change and cannot ping anymore...
