How is this done and is there significant disadvantage? I did it by setting up a website on someone else's box to redirrect to my box ip address. For this to work you have to have your box updating that website with your IP address when ever your IP address changes or simply update it, say, every hour or so. I can give you more detailed particulars if you are interested. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
