I have only one IP address. Most probably, you mean that you have only one registered and routed address. I would advise you to runa HTTP proxy on your FreeBSD machine and use Netscape on the Win95 toaster to access that. I do just that, but with WinNT rather than Win95. I use the TIS firewall toolkit (freeware version), but maybe there are other (better?) alternative packages are available. -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dipl.-Inform.
