Hi,

so just to make sure I am clear,
[world]<--->[cable gateway]<--->[fbsd box]<--->[hub]<--->[linux box]
that look right?

This would be your firewire:

This is a network card:

This would be the lpt port:

This is the loopback interface:

You will need to know the ip address of the cable modem or if it is using
dhcp. Use the http admin for the modem to see what the ip is unless you
already know. Also note if dhcp is running on the modem, if you want to use
dhcp then read this page (i don't know dhcp setup very well):
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/network-dhcp.html
and ignore the rest of this. Or you can disable dhcp for the LAN and setup a
static network.
Static setup:
# ifconfig rl0 down
# ifconfig bfe0 down
# route flush
This will clean up your "mess" :-)
Next, you need to know the public interface (going to the cable gateway) and
the private interface (going to your LAN).
Now to find the public interface: (assuming the ip address for the cable modem
is 192.168.0.1 and has a netmask of 255.255.255.0):
# ifconfig rl0 192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0
# ifconfig rl0 up
# route add default gateway 192.168.0.1
# ping 192.168.0.1
You should get a ping response from the cable modem at this point.
If not then:
# ifconfig rl0 down
# route flush
# ifconfig bfe0 192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0
# ifconfig bfe0 up
# route add default gateway 192.168.0.1
# ping 192.168.0.1
Make a note of the which interface is which. For the examples I am assuming
rl0 is connected to the cable modem, that is is up, you can ping the modem
and that bfe0 is connected to the LAN.
So this will all be set up on reboot:
Edit /etc/rc.conf and add:
firewall_enable="YES"
firewall_type="OPEN"
natd_enable="YES"
natd_interface="rl0"
ifconfig_rl0="inet 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0"
ifconfig_bfe0="inet 10.0.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0"
gateway_enable="YES"
Edit /etc/rc.firewall and edit the "open" section:
FROM:
# Prototype setups.
#
case ${firewall_type} in
[Oo][Pp][Ee][Nn])
setup_loopback
${fwcmd} add 65000 pass all from any to any
;;
TO:
# Prototype setups.
#
case ${firewall_type} in
[Oo][Pp][Ee][Nn])
setup_loopback
${fwcmd} add divert natd all from any to any via rl0
${fwcmd} add 65000 pass all from any to any
;;
Now Reboot.
On the linux box:
ifconfig eth0 10.0.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0
ifconfig eth0 up
route add default gateway 10.0.0.1
Now, from the freebsd box:
ping 192.168.0.1
ping 10.0.0.2
ping freebsd.org
From the linux box:
ping 10.0.0.1
ping freebsd.org
You should be up and running.
You will still need to edit your firewall rules. The "open" setup is just so
misformed rules aren't a possable problem in the trouble shoot. I'm sure you
will be able to google for how to do this.
Let me know if this helped or if you have any more questions.
