I'm guessing something else may be messed up now.
If he is using it as a gateway for other machines he will still need NAT. Try this to open the fire wall up: public="xl0" private="xl1" loopBack="lo0" ipfw add 00100 allow all from any to any via $private ipfw add 00110 allow all from any to any via $loopBack # # Net Address Translate (NAT) incomming packets # ipfw add 00120 divert natd ip from any to any in via $public # # Net Address Translate (NAT) out going packets # ipfw add 01000 divert natd ip from any to any out via $public ipfw add 01010 allow ip from any to any I just clipped these from my rules, thats why the weird numbering scheme. -Mike _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
