If an external machine asks for a service and it resolves to one of your ISP allocated static IP addresses then either the NIC with that address needs to be in the machine providing that service or you will need to forward/bridge the request. If you want multiple internal machines to see the internet through a lesser number of ISP allocated static IP addresses you need some form of NAT If you do not want split DNS you can simply add rules on your LAN interface to redirect outbound HTTP HTTPS and SSH requests for your static IP addresses to the relevant addresses on OPT ---Robert > At this point, I'm more than content leaving it as it is, but I'm more > curious than anything now. > > Thanks, > > Geoff. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
