I'm hoping someone out there can point me at a useful source of information.

I have a FreeBSD 2.1.6 which I'm trying to set up as a gateway to the internet 
via on-demand PPP for a small LAN of other BSDs and Windows boxes.  The gated 
documentation is baffling to me, since I don't know a great deal about low 
level networking.  However, I can usually muddle through if there's a few good 
examples of config files to learn from.

If anyone out there could let me know where I can find such example 
routed.conf files, or can show me one that does this seemingly simple thing, I 
would be eternally grateful.
