OK, cool... bridges can be configured through interfaces, which saves me the fuss of writing an init script. But a few more details would be helpful - mainly, do I really need an IP address for the bridge? Also, I have the wireless configured in interfaces already in order to specify the ESSID and WEP key - it also uses DHCP to get an address. When I switch to bridging, do I switch that to static or will removing the "auto" directive be enough? Thanks, Todd -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
