Done! Wow! Thanks, Warren! I guess I wasn't as close as I thought on the masquerading. So - I did all that you suggested, and it sure looks like it worked, but I still have a question. It did both the hostname.mc and the hostname.submit.mc files and .cf files, but I didn't do anything to the hostanme.submit.mc file. Am I still OK? > -Warren Block * Rapid City, South Dakota USA > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" -- John Lind john@starfire.MN.ORG
