	I've been trying to setup a Gateway2000 P-120 with 32M of RAM
as a FILE server for a computer lab.  I've got two ethernet cards in it.
One ethernet card is hooked up to my campus backbone.  And it works,
as is evidenced by the fact that I'm on it right now.  The second
ethernet card is hooked to a hub that has 30+ PCs on it.  All of the
PCs can 'see' the FreeBSD machine because I can telnet from them to it.
What I can't do, is telnet from a PC to anywhere else.  For some reason
the packets aren't being routed from one card to the other.  I've got 
options GATEWAY in my KERNEL.  Am I missing something?

	Also.  I'm trying to NFS mount a drive from the PCs to the
FreeBSD machine.  It's offered as a choice to the PC, but when I go
to mount it, I get an error message.

	Any help would be greatly appreciated and any responses
by email are even more greatly appreciated due to the lack of 
stability in my NEWS server.

Thanks.
