Since the cheap consumer ADSL routers are usually awful routers and buggy, limited NAT devices, I always try to arrange for the PPP tunnel to extend as far as the firewall behind it. Some routers call this 'PPPoE passthrough', others make up names for it, but there's several on the market that can do it. If you can avoid letting the consumer junk touch the IP packets, life tends to go much more smoothly. Having done that, your problem becomes trivial to solve. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
