BTW if you have dynamically assigned internet addresses, the firewall could be assigned like that. The portforwarding isn't affected by the external adress is it. You're problem with an external connection is that you don't know the external adress after rebooting and so you cannot connect with your box. put something like "mail me the new external ip" in ip-up. PPPOE can be seen as "just normal pppd only over a different interface ; ) Good Luck Wanting to try kernel pppoe (kernel 2.4.16) get our image at jacques nilos page (end of advertisement ;) ) Eric Wolzak http://leaf.sf.net/devel/ericw _______________________________________________ Leaf-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user
