I have just changed the configuration of my connection to my ISP. Now my -modem- has my password and login info and does the pppoe login into the ISP. I guess you could say the modem is doing the gateway function.
But now I am lost as to how to connect my unix box and host my web sites. I have only ever connected to the internet through ppp. What I want to do is connect via a normal network connection, like any other box I have on my network. The modem/gateway runs nat, which I can disable becuase I would like unix to handle nat. Forgive my terminology here. I sure there is a easier way to say this. Any one know how I go about connecting via a non-ppp way? I want to connect, I guess, just like any dumb windows box would on the network, by plugging into the hub.
