What I do is connect a Linksys router/firewall to the cable modem. In my case, it's got the dynamic address, but you can configure yours with the static IP. Then the systems connected to the firewall connect using a private IP address (192.168.0.x) and have their default gateway set to the router (which has two addresses - one facing in and one facing out - the one you want to point to is the internal one). Once you've solved the outgoing connections, just turn on port forwarding for the inbound connections for things like http or smtp. -- Ed Wilts, Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Member #1, Red Hat Community Ambassador Program -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
