Here is my situation. A windows 95 machine, connect via ethernet to FBSD, FBSD is connected via pppd to my gateway (my address is 206.9.159.17, my gateways is 206.9.158.1) I have two dialin lines, running pppd that use me as a gateway currently 206.9.159.18 and 206.9.159.19 respectivly. I also have a virtual host on my system 206.9.159.30 the range of ip's that I have are 206.9.159.16-206.9.159.31. What I need to know, is how can I set up my routing tables, so that everything works like it should? what net and address should I put on my ed0 card to get to win95? -- Patrick Sonnek - SysAdmin Sonnek Communications http://www.soncom.com
