That gets you a lot of the way there. An even better idea would be to have slirp run at the ISP. slirp understands having lots of IP addresses on the PPP side of the link. It is even conceivable to gate two entire Internets together with slirp. :-) This presumes that he has a shell account at his ISP instead of a PPP account, though. -- Nick Sayer <nsayer@quack.kfu.com> | "Don't make me come in there..."
