Hi world,
I want to use a 386BSD machine to route between 3 networks. Two of these are
local ethernet's and the third is connected via a SLIP link. I would like
to get the SLIP link talking to another 386BSD machine. Just incase this has
confused you, I will include a diagram:
Ethernet 1
--------+---------
|
| |
386BSD <--------- slip link ---------> 386BSD -+
| | Ethernet 3
| |
|
-----+-------------
Ethernet 2
Is this at all possible? How well can 386BSD route anyway?
Thanks in advance.
