The most obvious answer would be to change the internal network to not conflict with the external network. With a little more effort, you could set up the FreeBSD box to bridge instead of routing, and just make sure you don't assign the .100 address to anything other than the cable modem. -- Lowell Gilbert, embedded/networking software engineer, Boston area: resume/CV at http://be-well.ilk.org:8088/~lowell/resume/ username/password "public" _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
