	Well, I tried RIP on a Cisco 2501 router before but it seems like
machines behind my router can't get past the router on the other side.
Now what is screend?  named/bind has nothing to do with routing...  That's
more of a IP to address thing...

	Get a HP48GX Calculator and modify the transmitter/receiver :-)
