i have a linux gateway with 5 machines behind it...

i switched to iptables...

however, now eth0 seems to be dropping every few hours. is therre someway i can
tell if it's my eth0 dying or roadrunner dropping me because they are evil? my
log says something like:

named no longer listening on eth0

when i try "network restart", i get a new ip address, but then my log says stuff
about martians. i don't get this! who comes up with this stuff?

at that point, i get a new ip address, i go to my dynamic dns site, update all
my sites. but they can't be accessed because apparently "martian" means i got
assigned an ip address that isn't valid on the roadrunner network, so nobody can
get to me. so i have to reboot my server and everyone gets upset. then, i end up
getting back my original ip address, going back to the dyn dns site and
re-entering everything again! what happened to the shorter work week? i swear,
we were better off tilling fields... at least, in the middle ages, we had a
4-day work week, and stopped working when the sun went down. capitalism...
