I read your post and the two threads behind it. I suppose I just wasn't paying attention, imagine that. The security should not be a problem, the box is on a lan. I am setting up the firewall now. It has two smc-ultra cards. Just like the two ne2k cards in my other gateway they don't get along. So, I will take a different road.
