I did recompile the kernel with GATEWAY, IPFORWARDING, and IPFORWARDING_VERBOSE options. I tried sysctl -a, it gave me ipforwarding = 1. I have 2 network cards, with different subnet. I tried to telnet from network1 to network2, it came back with timeout. Do I need to use ipfw command to enable this (yes, I read man ipfw, as well as the sample of it, it seems a little to deep for a newbie like me). Please give me a way to enable ipforwarding, without using ipfw. Thanks
