I still can't connect my win2000 client to access the Internet through OBSD server. Clients can ping the OBSD server IP, and the server can dial to my ISP and ping my ISP IP number.The problem is i can't make my client to access the internet. Can someone there help me plz?
 
have you enabled routing on your bsd box? Try tracert and ping to the internet from your windows box to an internet address say or similar that respond to ping (CNN for instance, does not).

Is your BSD box dual homed (2 nework cards)? Some information on your TCP/IP configuration on both machines would help troubleshoot this too.

Yes I already enabled routing on my bsd box and my BSD box only using 1 networke card connected to hub and a dial up modem to connect to the Internet.
My IP for BSD box is 192.168.0.5/255.255.255.0 and set the gateway as 192.168.0.5.
My Win2K server using IP 192.168.0.1/255.255.255.0 and running as DHCP server, where my client gateway address i put 192.168.0.5 (BSD IP number).
My BSD can ping to my ISP but not my client.
 
Might this be a firewall problem look at your

/etc/pf.conf

Maybe your firewall is blocking your client
