Yes, but it will be easiest to configure if you subdivide that C space up - makes routing easier. Generally, when I do things like this I put each interface on a different network number. 192.168.1.0/25 for local LAN 192.168.1.128/25 for dial-in ... for example. > 2)can the server then still use NAT to give gateway > services to the dial-in computer with the 192... > address?

If you divide everything up into subnets (like I described above) it can be done pretty easily with routing statements. -- Bill Moran Potential Technology http://www.potentialtech.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
