Using C Mott's version of PPP for NAT right now. I want to be able to have http requests on port 80 to be forwarded to one of the machines using the 192.168.x.x addresses. If I understand from earlier disscussions, I can do this by using one of three processes. FWTK, IPFW or Socks. My question is which in your opinion would be best to use? Which would offer the most flexibilty/less hastle, for future changes with my network? Thank you in advance. Cheers, mitch _____________________________________________________ Mitch James Living Near Latte' Land mitch@hardware.com James Lumber & Ace Hardware www.hardware.com www.hardware.com/complist.html
