Hello all

Aprox. 2 weeks ago i posted a question titled web browsing to this list. It
was about  how to setup NAT  on my  gateway  so intranet computers  can
access  Internet.

The current situation is:

I have a obsd3.9 box connected to internet using ppp.conf, on the inside i
have a winXP box connected to switch, connected to obsd box.

The thing that wasn't working was that my XP box couldn't access web pages.
I blamed it on pf.conf. But that wasn't the case.

Today i tried this:   I turned off Pf  ---- i will set that up later
I checked man ppp and found this info. ...to turn on NAT add this line to
ppp.conf    nat enable yes... . With this line added to ppp.conf things
started to work.

Now the question :

1. My resolv.conf contains namesservers from my ISP

2. At the begining xp box was setup with DNS parameter pointing to my
gateway 192.168.0.1. I could not access Internet, then i changed this
parameter to dns server ip of my ISP
    and things work again.


What must i do that things will work with dns parameter set to my gateway ?

Are there any security threats with parameters set to dns ip form my ISP ?
Will this be a problem when setting up Pf ?
