Xavier, What you would do is to have your frewall be the gateway, quite simple. You would not want to setup mail on your gateway machine. My setup is like what you are suggesting. I have a FreeBSD firewall doing IPFW/NAT pointing to my internal server running Postfix/Courier/Squirrelmail. If you want OpenBSD, same thing would apply. Should be pretty simple to accomplish. I had given thought to putting the server behind a DMZ but not sure I have the knowledge or the need to do so. Hope that helps some. -- ~~~Pete~~~ http://milneweb.com http://nomorevirus.com ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Free pre-built ASP.NET sites including Data Reports, E-commerce, Portals, and Forums are available now.
