Your rc.conf is all wrong, you are doing the nat process in both
'user ppp' and IPFW, this is wrong.
The default IPFW firewall rules are useless in protecting you.
If you want stateful ipfw rules which will give you max in
protection and that will work as is for your situation let me know.

-------SAMPLE RC.CONF-------
 ifconfig_em0="inet 192.168.2.1  netmask 255.255.0.0"
ifconfig_dc0=up
ppp_enable="YES"
ppp_mode="ddial"
ppp_nat="YES"
ppp_profile="dialisp"
gateway_enable="YES"
firewall_enable="YES"
firewall_type="OPEN"
 -------END RC.CONF-------



see if this works for you. Please let me know the out come.

Replace the XXX in the [set device PPPoE:XXX] statement with the Nic
card FBSD interface name. Sometimes it will be necessary to use a
service tag to establish your connection depending on how your ISP
and/or the phone company has it's DSL network configured. Service
tags are used to distinguish between different PPPoE servers
attached to a given network. You should have been given any required
service tag information in the documentation provided by your ISP.
If you cannot locate it there, ask your ISP's tech support
personnel.  This is the format of the command with the service tag
added

set device PPPoE:XXX:service_tag


The xxxx is the FBSD interface name used by PPPoE, the interface
must be UP, (IE: enabled). It is only used as transport, and does
not need to be assigned an IP address. This can be done
automatically at boot time by updating the /etc/rc.conf file. The
format of the statement to add is  ifconfig_xxxx=up   where xxxx is
Nic card FBSD interface name used by PPPoE that you specified in the
/etc/ppp/ppp.conf file.

  ee /etc/rc.conf         add following statement

  ifconfig_xxxx=up


To setup user ppp to dial your ISP automatically at FBSD boot time,
you have to add the following statements to the rc.conf file. The
ddial option means to redial every time the connection to the ISP
gets dropped.

   ee /etc/rc.conf

   # Activate user ppp auto start at boot time
   ppp_enable="YES"             # Start User ppp task
   ppp_mode="ddial"             # ddial, auto, background
   ppp_profile="dialisp"        # section in ppp.conf to

Subject: DSL with User PPP and Static IP

Hello,

I have just started working for a local auto transmission repair
shop and am
trying to get the local server up and running.  Specifically, the
server
works great with dynamic IPs assigned from the DSL provider (using
PPPoE)
but it burps when I attempt a static IP as per the handbook's "Using
User
PPP" section.

Our business was given the following values for connecting to the
Internet:

Net:  69.37.6.192
Gateway:  69.37.6.198
Netmask:  255.255.255.248
Broadcast:  69.37.6.199
Static IPs 193-197


When I change /etc/ppp/ppp.conf (sample attached) to:

set ifaddr 69.37.6.193 69.37.6.198 255.255.255.248

tun0 is "Opened by PID xxx" but does not show any IP addresses, and
the
connection does not work.  If I leave the ifaddr to the dynamic
setting
(which includes the 0.0.0.0) everything works fine.  I am including
a sample
of our local ppp.conf, ifconfig output, and relevant parts of
rc.conf for reference.
Please note, the ifconfig output shows the missing inet line when a
static
config is attempted.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks again,

Jacob @ Jerry's Transmission Service
