Why the router? replace it with a switch and you should be golden. Fios ---> eth0 --> server --> eth1 --> switch --> clients1-4 server's eth0 is assigned by DHCP server's eth1 is set static (192.168.1.1?) server assigns local addresses on eth1 via DHCP server gives DNS server address (192.168.1.1) via DHCP server's DNS server is recursive, not authoritative (authoritative is for when you're hosting your own domain's DNS on the internet) Alternatively, and a lot more simply: Fios ---> router --> server + clients1-4 (with a switch to add ports as needed router's WAN port is assigned by DHCP router assigns local addresses on the LAN ports via DHCP router is configured to act as local DNS server (standard on many home routers these days) Server gets a static IP in the local range (192.168.1.2) Set up DMZ on the router to forward public traffic to the server -wes _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
