Hi,
I want to use FreeBSD as a gateway of 2 ethernets.
host A
|
| interface-A
FreeBSD gateways
| interface-B
|
host B
I already set gateway in /etc/sysconfig to YES.
Now, host B can telnet to gateway and then telnet to host A
host B can ping/traceroute to gateway's interface A or B
But when host B traceroute host A, all appear is * * * * * *
I am sure the routing table in all the 3 hosts are right and
I have also tried to run routed in the FreeBSD gateway
Have anyone experienced this before ? expect the
/etc/sysconfig file what else should I config to turn on
the ip-forwarding in the FreeBSD gateway.
Pls mail to me.
Thanks a lot.
