Hi John, I've been doing the ADSL with a routed /29 for servers in addition to having a NATted LAN behind the same firewall. You can probably use some of the tricks I get up to to conserve addresses. Let us know what modem you are using, whether you are doing PPPoE or PPPoA or whatever and I'll tailor my reply to suit. You can get into lots of frustration by taking "obvious" approaches to this problem, only to find that they result in more problems rather than solutions. I don't see why you need all of that pain. >From the land "down under": Australia. Do we look <umop apisdn> from up over? Do NOT CC me - I am subscribed to the list. Replies to the sender address will fail except from the list-server.
