If, as I expect, the DSL modem still has an Ethernet interface, you can just set up the inside system as though the Ethernet leads to the outside world, with the IP address of the ISP's router as the default route. My ISP works that way. My Freebsd system's external Ethernet has address w.x.y.z/24 and my default route is w.x.y.1. If you don't get a static IP address, running dhclient on the Ethernet interface that talks to the DSL modem should work. -- Barney Wolff http://www.databus.com/bwresume.pdf I'm available by contract or FT, in the NYC metro area or via the 'Net. _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
