Yes. You want a NAT. > Would be handy for CVS configuration (which for example keeps > information in CVS/Root) For this, I actually use ssh tunnels: ssh -f -L2401:cvs.foo.com:2401 [EMAIL PROTECTED] sleep 3600 cvs -d :pserver:config@localhost:2401:/cvs login cvs -d :pserver:config@localhost:2401:/cvs co config etc etc. It works great, 'cause then you can move machines to basically anywhere on your network (internal or external), and you just change the ssh tunnel invocation to match. CVS doesn't have to know any better. M
