If, to the outside world, you only show a single IP 
address, how does the ISP know? I think my server maps the 
internal IP addresses (in the 192.168.1.x range) to port 
numbers on the IP address my ISP assigns. 

Unless he's going to demand that specific port numbers, and 
only those port numbers be used, he shouldn't be aware of 
the local server.  Or am I missing something here?
