Hey, what do you know...me too...of course, I work for Concentric. :) With DSL, it shouldn't matter what OS you run or anything. You will be given a DSL "router" which you can plug straight into an ethernet card of a machine...or plug into a hub. I have this sort of setup: DSL router -> freebsd with bridging patches -> hub -> other machines ^^^ being used as firewall my "other machines" are many different OSes :) - Chris -- Chris Behrens Senior Software Architect Concentric Network Corporation To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
