thanks guys for all the help
ill probly stick to the local address and have everyone else use my external
address.
still wonder why the old router didnt have a problem with the u-turns...
maybe it had something built into it.
anyways, thanks for the info

Unfortunately, as I said, in my experience ( admittedly nothing like
someone like, or even Aaron himself ) I have always had very little luck
trying to do U-turns in firewalls.
My firewall is handling dhcp and dns with dnsmasq. I've added sites I
host from home to /etc/hosts on the firewall with lines like:
192.168.1.60 somehost.homelinux.net
Seems to work fine for me. dnsmasq is available for linux and *bsd.
You can also configure it blindfolded. Err... well... y'know...
