If you can, could you send me a diagram of the network and how you want to use it. I still have a little bit of trouble decoding whats going on. You don't have to put any real IP's in you can just make marks, e.g. PUBLIC.IP and DHCP from Range 192.168.0.x .
If you want you can just send that to me instead of posting it to the list. I should be able to open any kind of document you create it in (dwg, doc, pdf, visio, etc) --Angelo On Tue, 05 Oct 2004 09:49:54 +0400, Cesar Dela Paz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Angelo, > > Firstly, thanks for the offer of help.
