The real question is, why? What are you trying to accomplish? Having "real" IP addresses is pointless unless you're offering services, in which case they need to be static and routable, in which case dynamic addresses defeat the purpose. If you have two clients in the house and no gateway, then two available assignments is great for you and easy for them. In your case, you have a dedicated gateway, so why not use NAT on that firewall, and sleep better? - -d - -- David Talkington PGP key: http://www.prairienet.org/~dtalk/0xCA4C11AD.pgp - -- http://setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/pale_blue_dot.html -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP 6.5.8 Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.75-6 iQA/AwUBPEM9XL9BpdPKTBGtEQLCzwCfRKgshScSH8B4+oowIhFG3sT/AgUAmgM4 WRW+zXtilE+aTWnN1Js3wStD =aJMr -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
