With this experience behind me, my advice to you is to get a professional in your local area to do this for you. This may cost you a little more upfront but in the long run it will save you time, money, and a lot of headaches. From your question I believe it will take you a long time to accomplish what you want, you will spend money on equip- ment that you either don't need or doesn't do the job adequately if at all. And in the end you will have a configuration you may not be really satisfied with in terms of security and performance. I don't mean to sound unkind here or overly negative about what you can accomplish on your own given the time and money. But there are a lot of issues to take into consideration which you may not think are important now or which you may not even know exist that will have a big impact on what you need to do. I wish you the best of luck and I also want to assure you that what you want to do has been done many times and a professional should have no problems doing this for you. If he appears unsure of how to proceed then he probably hasn't done it before and is figuring it out as he goes. Sincerely, Duane Whitty -- duane@greenmeadow.ca
