Thanks. You could start by reading the documentation for gated,screend,tcpd and=20 named/bind. If you're not willing (or able) to do at least that, I suggest you spare yourself the ordeal and just get a low end Cisco or Livingston router and be done with it. BTW, anyone know exactly how I use this pocket computer to pass my physics exam? I know it's possible, but I need someone to tell me exactly how to do it. :-) Chris --=20 Christopher Mauritz | For info on internet access: ritz@interactive.net | finger/mail info@interactive.net OR IBS Interactive, Inc. | http://www.interactive.net/
