Well, basically what it would gain me is I could, for example, PC Anywhere
to any of the computers behind the Masq Server, by simply PC Anywhereing to
pc1.domain.com, or pc12.domain.com, instead of redirecting ports 5631-5632
on the Masq Server, and then going on by PC Anywhereing to
masqserver.domain.com... But I guess there's no way to do this. Oh well.
Thanks newayz!
