I have a customer that's trying to do something I've never seen before,
and I'm trying to help him set it up.
They have a 2811 set up with a VPN using a GRE tunnel. We have that up
and running to the other end ok. However, the customer wants to control
which RFC 1918 10.x space he assigns
This is probably just regional, but here in SE PA, I've had a few
customers who send their outgoing mail through smtp.comcast.net getting
internal queueing error.
Anybody find what it is or was and when/if it was fixed?
TIA,
