Ok, I have to assume some things here, correct me if I'm wrong:

- both PC's are plugged into a switch/hub
- your routers LAN IP address is 10.50.93.1
- you are NOT trying to get the second PC on the Internet

Now, I don't want to just give you my first advice, as I don't fully
understand your methods here, so please post the relevant portions of
/etc/rc.conf in relation to the network configuration. We'll then go
from there.
