I was offering an alternate network structure...

You can do what you want with Dachstein.  Use the the DMZ_SERVERn variables
(which allow you to specify which external IP you want to forward) to setup
your DMZ services.

NOTE: I think there are ways around the FTP problem mentioned below by Ed
Tetz, but it requires using the advanced routing features of the kernel, and
I haven't personally tried to set it up.  If you want to experiment, post on
the LEAF-user list, and I'll try to help you set it up.
