Speaking about FreeBSD-2.2 June snapshot, Irix-5.3.

I tried. I searched through the mailing archive and through the
helpbook. And through the FAQ. No.

No, I'd like to avoid SOCKS{4|5} if possible (what happened to port in
-current, BTW?).
Yes, I do have the ip.forwarding set to 1 (on FreeBSD).
Yes, routed is running without flags (tried with -s too) (on FreeBSD).
Yes, the FreeBSD machine can see both networks -- entire world
through the ppp-link (199.232.254.68 -- stable IP address) and the
LAN through the ethernet card (222.222.222.22, yes, I will change
this later to smth reserved for local later).

Yes, all the machines on the lan can see the 222.222.222.22 interface
and have it as a default gateway.

My primary test machine is an IRIX box, which will not allow the
default to be set to anything no directly reachable.

`traceroute -n 199.232.254.68' shows 199.232.254.68 in the first line.
`traceroute -n my.ppp.peer.address' on SGI shows and 222.222.222.22
right away, then -- a bunch of `* * *'...

Anything else to set on the FreeBSD box? Other clients are NTs --
even less cooperative then Irix. Ideas? Thanks!
