I don't know if it will help, butmaybe you should investigate the 'mpd' port. (multi-link ppp daemon) Us this in conjunction with natd to get a general purpose version of what you are doing....

I dont want to route all the LAN traffic through the server, just the server traffic itself, so i dont know if natd is the answer, but I have a suspicion it lies in there somewhere with IP masquerading or IP firewalling or IP divert..? > > Any help would be *greatly* appreciated.. > > Steve Harris > Syetems Admin. >
