Cool, I guess I should clear up a couple of things, 1> I said 'collision domain', and I meant to say 'broadcast domain'. Your switch has several collision domains, and one broadcast domain. 2> you would need to specify the port because nmap doesn't automatically scan every port. (btw, how did you come up with that number? :-) ) 3> I should mention that bittorrent doesn't require port forwarding, with RHEL5, query for the version of python and install the corresponding version of BT (BitTorrent-4.2.2-1-Python2.3.noarch.rpm, BitTorrent-4.2.2-1-Python2.4.noarch.rpm ... ) 4> The -O option guesses OS, probably something you didn't need in this example. 5> For fun, you might want to setup a linux box as a router, or get a linksys router that can take the dd-wrt image.
