Thanks again for the help. Unfortunately this doesn't seem to have worked either. I've entered:
ifconfig fxp0 alias x.x.x.x This simply replaces the existing fxp0 settings from rc.conf with the alias settings (resulting in a loss of network connectivity. I've removed the original alias0 - aliasx lines from rc.conf so the only fxp0 line is now for the main IP address for the interface: ifconfig_fxp0="inet x.x.x.x netmask 255.255.255.248" Regards, Ben Craig. --- "Alvaro Rosales R." <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > that's the problema , you have to add the ifconfig > alias , manually, I had > the saame problem , trying to add the aliases in > rc.conf , so I had to add > the aliases manually, then you have to kill natd > and restart it manually > somefing like > ifconfig rl1 alias x.x.x.x (a free external ipo > address) > > and then I run > killall natd > > natd -redirect_address internal ip x.x.x.x > -interface rl1 > Then ou'll have NAT running, youd better create a > script in rc.local to > load this commands at boot time. > Good Look ===== -- Benjamin Craig Executive Producer Cinemagine Limited __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
