Okay, I see. Basically, like you, I will be running a samba/mail server using fetchmail to retrieve ISP mail. The server will also run some stunnel connections to remote locations. I presume the DSL router is sufficient as a basic firewall. I only need the ssh port forwarded to the internal server. Any other access I can tunnel through that same port as well. A final question;-) Is login and password authentication handled automatically by the DSL router? Yes I would appreciate a copy of the manual. Thanks for your help!
