Kernel Option Question
Hi: i have seen that help (FAQ) says that there's an option called
option IPFORWARDING
that: "Enables IP routing behavior. With this option enabled, the machine
will forward IP datagrams between its interfaces that are destined for other
machines."
However... i downloaded srcsys.tar.gz and I havent found that in GENERIC
But there are two interesting options
option GATEWAY # packet forwarding
option INET # IP + ICMP + TCP + UDP
Basically I need to remove IPv6 Support.
I though that by commenting this out it will be enough (#option
INET6 # IPv6 (needs INET))
However, when I boot the new no ipv6 kernel, I found out that pf is no
longer working!
(pppoe/internet works fine for localhost!), but pf is down.
If I reboot back with the bsd that exists on the CD (that is, the original)
it works again.
Now the question is, what might I be missing? Should ipforwarding option
exist?
Thanks in advance
Martin.
