I am currently using a LinkSys NAT device and have the POP, SMTP, and HTTP ports forwarded to two separate servers: One for mail another for web. I can assure you it works with the LinkSys box. And it worked in the past using a Mac running OS 8.1 with IPNetRouter. If I read the specifications correctly on the other popular NAT boxes they can do this too. I am also using the virtual host feature of Apache to run a few different domains. You will need to set up the DNS for this, but the original query indicated that his friends already had domains set up. At least some of the domain registration companies can also run your DNS for you. Or you can make other provisions for it. By the way,I am not sure I would recommend the LinkSys box as it has show some problems getting hung up and requiring power cycling. Do some web searches and check out the comments on the various vendors before buying. -- Unsupported OS X is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> Support Low End Mac <http://lowendmac.com/lists/support.html> Unsupported OS X list info <http://lowendmac.com/lists/unsupported.html> Send list messages to: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For digest mode, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subscription questions: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Archive <http://www.mail-archive.com/unsupportedosx%40mail.maclaunch.com/> Using a Mac?
