You could skip the BSD box altogether, I am assuming its there for NAT, and just use the NAT on the 675. It is working fine for me. US West is in the habit of telling people they need multiple IPs but the technician I talked to at VISI was nice enough to tell me the entries to make it work on the 675(all the information you need is in the 675's manual); after having used FreeBSD for a couple of months for NAT. It works great. I have only had to restart it once in the last 6 months. I still haven't been able to get the 675's DHCP server working correctly but that would just be gratuitus sugary topping. ____________________________ Mike Neuharth ADCS Technology Specialist http://www.umn.edu/adcs E-Mail : mjn at tc.umn.edu Page Mail : 6123065932 at messaging.sprintpcs.com http://nifty.dsl.visi.com/ ____________________________ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: tclug-list-unsubscribe at mn-linux.org For additional commands, e-mail: tclug-list-help at mn-linux.org
