Well,

that's exactly what I did at home Smilie

My FreeBSD box is my home Gateway on a dial-up account and it is also configured as a DHCP server. This way my WinME ( Smilie )box and FreeBSD laptop can join the LAN as soon as they startup and have access to the net without any hassel! Smilie

It didn't take too long to configure - you just need to make sure the details in the DHCP config script are correct.

Give it a try ... I think it's a GREAT way to have the ol' home computers set up!
