No. This is a good thing. > If those reserved IPs are not routed "outside", then > how would a workstation be able to properly communicate? Using a proxy service on a firewall machine. My home LAN has Squid from http://www.nlanr.net/Squid running on the gateway machine providing ftp, http and gopher proxy services. For news I run plug-gw from the TIS firewalls toolkit available at ftp.tis.com (make sure to get both the source archive *AND* the documentation archive). > What are the limitations/issues with using the reserved IPs? People on the outside can't get in an snoop. Great limitation. At home I also run raproxy from RealAudio and have plug-gw's set up for Compuserve and AOL access.
