Not sure what you mean by "using an outside box"? Do you mean beyond the router? or off the local machine? Don't think there is a way to do this from the local machine only, since that would defeat the purpose of the router. If you mean getting the info from the router you might want to look at "ddclient", you can find its homepage on freshmeat or probably with a google search. http://danconia.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
