Hello All,

I am having problems getting a connection to my FreeBSD gateway from my
Mandrake 10 Linux Machine. I am able to ping, traceroute, ssh etc. the
linux box from my freeBSD machine however I am not able to ping the
gateway. What could be the problem, this is my configuration:

FreeBSD: Gateway, IPFW & NAT running
HOSTNAME="redgate"
dc0  - 24.199.***.*** [DHCP]
txp0 - 192.168.1.1
txp1 - unassigned

Mandrake 10: Workstation
HOSTNAME="metalgate"
