there should be a userland process doing these checks and reoving the offending address from the pool on failure. unfortunately, to my knowledge, still nobody wrote something which does it. you might be able to achieve the same by using redirects to a table, some generic monitoring package and a little scripting. -- Henning Brauer, [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] BS Web Services, http://bsws.de Full-Service ISP - Secure Hosting, Mail and DNS Services Dedicated Servers, Rootservers, Application Hosting - Hamburg & Amsterdam
