Peer) Newsgroups: comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc Subject: PPP and gated routing help Date: 3 Jan 1996 09:16:12 GMT Organization: Golden West College Lines: 31 Message-ID: <4cdhgs$b1b@spock.dis.cccd.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: mpeer.csc.gwc.cccd.edu Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: Text/Plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 X-Newsreader: WinVN 0.99.5 Its me again... I am trying to setup a network at home/learning about all of this. What I have: I have a host at work with 2 ethernet cards and 4 modems. One of the modems is setup for iijppp. This host is running gated 3.5a10 and FreeBSD 2.0.5. I have another host at home with 1 ethernet card and 1 modem for iijppp. I have set the ppp for auto. It is running FreeBSD 2.1.0 with 3.5a11 gated. What is happening: At work I can see all hosts on any of the ethernet subnets. I can see the other host through the ppp link, but I can't see the hosts on the ethernet at home. At home I can see all hosts on the ethernet subnet. I can see the work host through the ppp link, and all the rest of the world. The problem: The ethernet hosts at home can't see beyond the ppp link, they can't even see the work side of the ppp link! comments: all subnets are class C address spaces. I added the tun0 interface in the gated.conf configuration, in a meager attempt to get it to route across the ppp link but it doesn't seem to do any good. I am stuck! please cc by e-mail as my news feed is not able to keep a days history around.
