I need to ask a question along these lines:  I just leased an 8ip subnet
from my ISP.  I assumed that all 5 usable IP addresses would be accessible
from anywhere on the www.  However, I've found out that it isn't working
that way. The only address that is externally accessible is the gw
address, which is assigned to my Cisco router.  When I ping to the other
addresses I get the following:


$ ping 209.98.11.42 
PING 209.98.11.42 (209.98.11.42) from 192.168.5.12 : 56(84) bytes of data. 
>From dsl.citilink.com (209.98.10.254): Time to live exceeded 
>From dsl.citilink.com (209.98.10.254): Time to live exceeded 
>From dsl.citilink.com (209.98.10.254): Time to live exceeded
 
 --- 209.98.11.42 ping statistics --- 
4 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, +3 errors, 100% packet loss                 
                       

The "ping" is being intercepted by one of my ISP's computer. It isn't
supposed to do this, is it?
