Why don't you use the router to do the firewall? I guess a lot of people don't think their router is capable of doing a such thing, but it can and its better than putting another machine on there to do it. On the other hand..I don't see it as being a problem for your LAN to have such a machine unless it goes down for some reason...then you will be in some real khakha! =P Jim At 10:46 PM 3/4/00 -0500, Systems Administrator wrote: >I'm trying to setup a "dropin firewall" ..
