I'm setting up a free bsd machines as a gateway/firewall and have 2 coax 
nics. the outside net (to the internet) is ep0 and at 204.255.96.90. the 
router it points to is 204.255.96.1 (set in /etc/sysconfig) ix0 is set at 
207.6.22.1 and connects to an ethernet hub, which has several machines 
connected to it and those machines are 207.6.22.whatever . I've come to the 
conclusion that routed is messed up or something. What exactly do i need 
to do to get gated going, set up the /etc/gateways file, etc.
