It shouldn't be a problem to grep/sed through the config space and modify that. Providing an 'automatic' implementation (some variables defining the network with automatic creation/modification of files) is of course possible, but will add code and complexity. > 2) The mainserver shouldn't act as gateway.

I run the system on exactly such a system, however there is a M$-windows system attached to the same ADSL router/gateway I do not want to interfere with. The only modification of the published setup I need is modifying the external interface in /etc/network/interfaces to read: # The external network interface allow-hotplug eth0 auto eth0 #iface eth0 inet dhcp iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.123.12 <-- available address in the 'router network' netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.123.255 gateway 192.168.123.254 <-- ADSL router IP > Givent that you'll provide such a fix, I'll probably do a test. > Providing a setup without the mainerver acting as gateway ( issue 2) ) is planed for Setup_B.
