It would be better if you told us what you're trying to accomplish, rather than asking us how to turn a $100-$1000 Linux PC with two or 3 NICs into a $10 ethernet switch. Your description above sounds suspiciously like a NAT/router. What exactly are you trying to accomplish? What is your goal here? Are you wanting to replace a Linksys/Netgear/etc broadband router with a Linux box? Tell us the goal and we'll tell you what you need to accomplish it. -- Stan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
