    I've been playing with setting up a firewall. This is the setup:
    The firewall PC is running FreeBSD 4.4 with the default 'simple' firewall
    running. There are two ethernet cards in it, one at IP 206.147.211.9 talking
    to the outside network. The other ethernet card is using IP 10.0.0.1 and is
    talking to an internel network of two PCs.
    One PC is running FreeBSD 4.4 and is at IP 10.0.0.2 and the other PC is
    running Win98 and is at IP 10.0.0.3. Both are using 10.0.0.1 as the default
    gateway.
    If both machines are plugged into the network and running everything seems to
    be working fine. However as soon as I shut down the Win98 box or unplug it
    from the network, the FreeBSD machine can't communicate out of the firewall
    anymore. Plug the Win98 box back in and it starts working again.
    Any suggestions? TIA
