I can route through my netbsd/i386 box using a macintosh and netscape, so
the router function and ipnat work fine.  However, I do not use named.

Hi,

I try to set up my NetBSD box as an gateway for my little network.The name
resolution is made by a DNS server runing on the NetBSD box (the gateway).
If  I made a "ping ftp.netbsd.org" or "traceroute -i eth0 ftp.netbsd.org"
from other hosts (for instance Linux box) I get packages back (I can see the
route to the host ftp.netbsd.org). But if  I try "ftp ftp.netbsd.org" no
ftp - login appears or "lynx http://www.netbsd.org" lynx prompts only
something like "... connected to http://www.netbsd.org ..." without
displaying the webpages.
The file ipf.conf is emty so nothing should be blocked.
What could be the reason?

thanx a lot,
Oliver
