 This is my second time, post the same subject. I got no reply for the 
 first time, so I think, I will try for the second time.

 I tried to control my FreeBSD box, to allow access from internal network
 to external only. I have 2 network cards in it.

 I compiled kernel, to include GATEWAY, IPFIREWALL, IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE.

 Then I tried to telnet from internal host, to external host. It failed,
 with timeout.

 I would like to know, do I need telnetd to listen on port 23, to enable 
 ipforwarding or not.

 Any suggestions , please

 Thanks
