Wil:

Here's the info route -n returned:

Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use 
Iface
10.0.0.0        0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 
eth0
0.0.0.0         10.0.0.1        0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 
eth0

grc.com was not much help.  First of all, I had to switch to windoze 
and a different firewall.  They report my IP address as 10.0.0.2, and 
then gave me a boilerplate blurb about how IETF in their wisdom set 
aside a large block of addresses for internal network use (which was 
rather astute, and all very true, of course).

Thanks.

Regards,

Glenn
