I try to avoid DHCP like the plague since there is no good way to detect rouge DHCP servers on the network.(I.E. plugging your router in backwards) most people have routers that do PPPoE and Motorola canopy can do PPPoE from the SM. So most of the time the customers just plug in the device into the router and there isn't a problem. In most situations the customers do not even know they are on PPPoE.

Re: [WISPA] Really Simple Mikrotik shaping?
> I really don't get the love affair with PPPOE; I assume there's > something I'm missing, and I've always been curious as to what. There is a lot of cool things you can do with radius / pppoe systems, change an IP if they haven't paid which can redirect customers to non-payment portals, use radius to dole out IP address ranges, authentication, encryption, and automatic bandwidth rules via MT's. These are just a few of the cool things can result with PPPoE / Radius systems. Like David said all of these things can be done without PPPoE but it is a lot easier to control the customer from an external system with these things in place.

Re: [WISPA] OT: sendmail question
You have a local user named bob and you have three domains that your server handles mail for, say yingyang.com, yoyo.com and jacks.com. You could send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] , [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] and they would all get to the local user bob. Is there anyway to restrict bob to only be able to receive and send on one of those particular domains instead of all three? I though that I had found something on this in the past but I have been googling for two days now and have come up with nothing. The only thing I have found is the virtual user table, That is how you do it. Make a virtual user for the main account and then just forward the other email addresses to that account.
