I would appreciate experts' answer on this. I am not sure if
the following is possible with FreeBSD:
Internet--------- ----------private LAN
| |
tun0 ep0
-------
| |
| |
------- FreeBSD2.1 running DNS, SOCKS
IPFW turned off, etc.
The main purpose is to have a server that acts as a firewall
allowing clients on the provate LAN to access the internet.
tun0 interface will have a valid ip ( ppp ) address and the ep0
will be a made up address/LAN.
Thank you in advance. Also, any recommendations for the
firewall( socks, fwtk, etc.) ?
