DON'T KNOW HOW THEY DO IT, whether they NAT whatever .. Anything I can use in FBSD 4.3 to mimic that type of behavior .. say 3 ethernet NICs in 1 FBSD box that accept these 3 incoming DSL-to-ethernet connections and a 4th NIC tied to the LAN (w/ NATd running ..) ... you get the idea .. ?? thanx __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
