ADSL Internet Sharing
Hi, I have some problems sharing my adsl internet connection between my FreeBSD 6.0 Box (server) and my Ubuntu 6.0.6 box (client). I use a crossover cable to connect the two PCs and on the FreeBSD PC I have an onboard network card (fxp0) and an wireless card (ural0) and on my Ubuntu box I have one NIC (eth0). My goal is to have my internet connection shared. The router I use to have internet access from my BSD box is downstairs so I connect to the internet via my wireless card. The ip address of the router is 192.168.1.1 and of my fxp0 interface 192.168.0.1. Of my eth0 is 192.168.0.2. I have set on Ubuntu as gateway 192.168.0.1 (my BSD box's address). Also i can ping the two pc from each other, but from ubuntu i cannot ping the router or any internet address. I have the following to my /etc/rc.conf gateway_enable=YES firewall_enable=YES firewall_type=OPEN natd_enable=YES natd_interface=fxp0 natd_flags= and the option described on the Handbook compiled in the Kernel. What i missing? thanks in advance andreas Sotirakopoulos ___ All New Yahoo! Mail Tired of [EMAIL PROTECTED]@! come-ons?

Wireless internet connetction issues
Hi I have(?) an internet connetction issue... I have a router connected to a windows box downstaires (Lynksis wAG354G) and i use a wirelless usb adapter (Lynksis WUSB54G). It works fine under windows and even if some times the signal is lost usually it comes back by either moving the antenna a little or by restarting the network configuration tool. In FreeBSD the adapter is visible and uses ural0 driver. So if give the command ifconfig ural0 inet 192.168.1.65 netmask 255.255.255.0 but i cannot connect to the internet or see the windows box. Now comes the strange part. if i press ifconfig ural0 i get: ural0: flags=108843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST,NEEDSGIANT mtu 1500 inet6 fe80::212:17ff:fe81:881a%ural0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 ether 00:12:17:81:88:1a media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect (OFDM/36Mbps) status: associated ssid linksys channel 11 bssid 00:14:bf:cb:71:32 authmode OPEN privacy OFF txpowmax 100 protmode CTS bintval 100 but still i cannot connect to web pages or ping hosts. I use KDE 3.5 and i do the following: from the Kmenu -settings-internet and Network- Network settings and on the card Network interfaces i see that there is only onde availiable interface fxp0 dhcp Disabled Ethernet Network Device. I know that this is my ethernet onboard card but if i choose Enable Interface i can connect to the internet!! I assume that something runs in the background that enables as well my wireless card but what is this? So what's the problem you may ask... the problem is that in case that my connection is lost i cannot do anything to get it back up. i have tried dhclient ural0 and nothing happents same with ifconfig ural0 up... I have to reboot and do the procudure again and the problem is that it fails often if i leave the net for a while...

Greek Accents and Filenames
HI I have a problem writing Greek accents in KDE. I am using KDE 3.5 on freebsd 6.1 and although i can type Greek in all applications i cannot put accents. Accents are placed by hitting the ; before the letter. When i do so though nothing happen, in fact even the letter is not appearing on the screen. I have tried typing export LC_CTYPE=el_GR on the console and rebooting but then when i type locale i get: LANG= LC_CTYPE=C LC_COLLATE=C LC_TIME=C LC_NUMERIC=C LC_MONETARY=C LC_MESSAGES=C LC_ALL= Moreover although i can read greek on konqueror and opera i cannot do so on Kwrite or i cannot read greek filenames on the desktop, eventhough ei can give greek names on files whithout accents ofcourse. any help would be very apreciated Thanks Andreas Send instant messages to your online friends http://uk.messenger.yahoo.com ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
