Thanks Patrick,
I will do that internalyy, but I was actually thinking of controlled access to a
hosted site through the firewall to demo new websites, the straight IP set allows
me to set up 4 of them, I would just like to hide them behind a firewall to keep
the general population out.
Will this work out?
