Lauri, I tried this and when I rebooted it stoped half way through the process. I then commented out this line defaultrouter="192.168.1.1" and posted my question. All I have now done is uncomment the line in the rc.conf, rebooted and everything is now working.

The same way. Tell the FreeBSD box to use the FreeBSD firewall as the gateway In rc.conf, add the address of the gateway as follows: defaultrouter="192.168.15.254" or if you're more comfortable that way, use /stand/sysinstall (--> Post-install configuration --> networking --> interfaces, and add the address of the firewall as the IPv4 gateway) Regards, -- Lauri Watts _______________________________________________ kde-nonlinux mailing list kde-nonlinux@mail.kde.org http://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-nonlinux _______________________________________________ kde-nonlinux mailing list kde-nonlinux@mail.kde.org http://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-nonlinux
