Is probably best to compile those into the kernel but IPFW will be kldload(1)'ed by the /etc/rc.* scripts if enabled. As for divert, I don't remember. Custom kernel is a sure thing. On reboot, start by proving the connection between Mac and FreeBSD works. Then FreeBSD to ISP. Then work on Mac thru FreeBSD to ISP. -- David Kelly N4HHE, [EMAIL PROTECTED] ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.
