Perhaps a NetTamer expert can clarify? There is no better expert on Nettamer than the author of the program himself, David Colston. I should like to quote verbatim a few lines of his words from the Nettamer user manual named NETTAMER.DOC, Copyright (C) 1998 Nettamer, Inc.: "Net-Tamer cannot work (as it is written) with another packet protocol. This makes the program inflexible. If a user wants to access the Internet over an ethernet connection or other network protocol, net-Tamer will not do it. I can add such routines, but if I do so, that will become a separate program and dedicated to the system that it is used on." I hope the above will serve to clarify.
