The source of the problem above is a "bug" in
ipmasq pkg, where it does not resolve the
INTERNAL/EXTERNAL properly (and I do not believe I am
creating an "Oddball Networks")
** Karsten M. Self in an unrelated thread gave "the
secret of shell programming" (TM) 'set -x' Karsten is
the person! I am very impressed by his/your quality
postings and feedback from etiquette to pretty heavy
technical details -- quantity and quality!
** the "workaround" is well doc'd on the
package maintains web page... ipmasq pkg is a great
pkg! Though, i may see about making some contrib. in
the future vs it.
I was not in the pasture yet... my more significant
problem was my white sheep move of on first install,
uninstalling 'pump' and installing 'dhcpcd'... ipmasq
, makes sense to me now, "setup" in rcS.d and so was
pump (in the rite order), BUT dhcpcd "setup" in rc2.d
... as a dewbie much time and energy spent tracking
this
one down, but I am much better for it ... and have
some grasp on a LOT of new-to-me concepts!
You are all great help,
Lloyd D. Budd
